Hi Ani, just returned home and wanted to thank you for the tour. Our tour through Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Armenia was simply incredible! I believe we saw the most important of each country. In Azerbaijan, the welcome dinner was great, we liked the fire temple Ateshgah and Baku’s unique blend of old and new. Georgia was all about tradition—lunch with a local cheesemaking family, a visit to a family winery, and a mesmerizing polyphonic concert that left us speechless. By the time we reached Armenia, we had truly unforgettable experiences, like a cooking class with local chef Yura, who we learned had cooked for dignitaries like Emmanuel Macron and the German Chancellor Angela Merkel. The day ended with a magical cave concert with breathtaking acoustics. Every detail was well-polished and thought over. I will recommend your company to whoever travels to your beautiful region.
