These two countries could not be more different from each other in landscape and culture. They both have stunning mountain scenery, wonderful food and friendly people. We did visit lots of churches in both countries but it is the locations they are in which are amazing.
Wow! What a service!!- KP Rajan and Anita Matthew
My girlfriend and I returned last month from a 9 day Georgia/Armenia trip that we organized thru the tour operator. Their service in one word - WOW!! I am still stunned at their attention and care, and when I sit back and examine the price we paid vs. where we stayed and what was covered (and compared it with other quotes), I am convinced that this is the best value that I have got among my many travels. I am serious! Even before the trip started, I was very impressed with David's email feedback as he patiently answered my queries and set up the tour. All the hotels they selected were 4 stars. We will especially remember a night that they had booked us in a castle when we were en-route to Armenia. It was so cool! All stayed included a nice breakfast buffet; more splendid were the dinners - every one of them - that they had arranged at various restaurants were excellent for both the venue and the taste. The guide and driver we had in Georgia were Ms. Natali and Mr. Zaza. Natali looks more like a model - really! - and enthusiastic. A very sweet lady with poise and grace, who patiently introduced us to her wonderful country. We were more than touched by Zaza, who helped us tremendously on the last day when we returned from Armenia and had to catch the flight @ the same night. A well-reviewed basic hotel that I had booked thru another site botched the reservation and by the time they could arrange for a different place, it took a few hours. It was pouring and the language difficulty added to the confusion and stress. Luckily, Zara patiently waited for us and actually intervened to speak to the two hotels and ensured that we were taken care off. He also arranged with the operator to prepare a fancier hotel just in case this fell thru but luckily it went smooth and he took us to the different hotel. (Thank you Zara!) Armenia leg - this was arranged by the operator thru their partners, Merry Tour. the guide's name was Ashot and he too was splendid. He was so knowledgeable that I didn't have enough time to get all my questions answered. I am so glad to have seen these two old and beautiful countries thru their services. They made the whole trip so relaxed and enjoyable and I will certainly recommend the operator as the only tour operator one needs to contact for their journey to these countries. Their service, price, and value are unbeatable. Thank you, operator, and your whole team for providing such excellent services. Wish you the very best, and I will certainly contact you when I come there again. Best of luck!!
Fascinating area of the world I would warmly recommend the Caucasus as a trip for people interested in history, culture, beauty and food. We were especially impressed with Georgia, its natural sites, hospitality and culture. Tbilisi was charming, the visit to the wine resort was the cherry on the cake and the trip to the Kazbegi mountain, where we lucked out on an amazing sunny day, was exhilarating. We also tremendously enjoyed Baku, mostly as a centre for modern architecture, which was one of our main interests. Food was wonderful throughout and we were offered even more dinners and lunches than initially included in the itinerary. Our guides were very knowledgeable and personable.
