We were two couples traveling through Georgia and Armenia, and we fell in love with the hospitality and warm welcome we received in both countries. The tour was filled with experiences like cheese tasting, wine tasting, and master classes. Guides Salo and Sonya were wonderful, and the hotels either. We mostly enjoyed our stay, It was good to have a couple of SPA hotels, in Telavi, Gyumri, and Dilijan. and with nice pools, especially the one in Rooms Hotel Kazbegi. Generally, we felt at home in guesthouses, cheese farms, and small wineries. Everything was organized brilliantly. Thank you.
I’m excited to share my experience as a solo traveler touring the incredible countries of Georgia and Armenia. I could never expect so close countries but so different with one charm each. Georgia was good with narrow cobbled streets and colorful houses, while Yerevan was more structured with wide streets and pink stone houses. Landscapes and cuisines are totally different. However, in Armenia, I felt a deeper connection. The warm hospitality I received made me feel right at home. The Tatev Cable Car ride, Kazbegi Mount View, and ancient cave towns in both countries were very impressive. However, this tour was based on experiences, like cooking classes, wine, brandy, and cheese tasting, clay master class, and music performances. The tour is a bit expensive but 100 % worth it. Thanks for this special itinerary.
We’re now home, and I wanted to share how much my family and I loved our trip to Georgia and Armenia! Initially, my teenagers were skeptical about the trip, thinking it would only be about traditions and not much fun. However, the tour exceeded all our expectations. In Georgia, we enjoyed an authentic experience with a friendly cheesemaking family, where we learned about local traditions and tasted homemade cheeses. The visit to a family-owned winery was a highlight, as we tried handcrafted wines that reflected the region’s rich heritage. We capped the day with a captivating Georgian polyphonic singing concert, which truly embodied the spirit of the culture. Crossing into Armenia, we continued our journey through rich cultural landscapes. At a charming guesthouse, an acclaimed chef guided us in preparing local dishes, and my children especially loved the clay master class experience. We enjoyed a small music performance when we reached the bottom of Levon’s Cave with natural acoustics. Thank you for creating such a memorable adventure for us!
