“First of all I have to say that our tour guide as very knowledgeable and confident. Don't think you're going to squeeze in any extra stops on this tour! In all seriousness though the entire route/tour/plan was GREAT. It was very methodical, well planned and executed. Our guide was very knowledgeable and quite nicely interspersed her personal history with what was going on at the time. For anyone who likes Soviet history, this REALLY turned out to be a very pleasant afternoon! If you want to know what "Bangladesh" is all about, you'll have to join the tour to find out :-)”

Tigran was an excellent driver, always attentive and thoughtful, even opening the door for us each time. Both of them were incredibly welcoming and friendly. Nina always checked in to see if we wanted to spend more time at different stops. They made the whole experience comfortable and memorable. We went to some amazing places like Lake Sevan, Dilijan, Tzgahakadzor, Lake Parz - we wouldn’t have been able to have had the same experience without Nina’s stories and…”
