Thank you, Tatev for organizing this trip. Central Asia tour you chose for me fit all my needs and preferences. The ancient cultural heritage of Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan were so captivating. Our group had a knowledgeable guide who was very informative and easy to deal with at the same time. I will surely use your company again in the future and advertise you among my friends and acquaintances.

We traveled with Central Asia Arara back in September. I am happy to say that we had a vacation of our lifetime!  Loved exploring the marvelous countries, the tour seemed to include so many interesting and exciting places. Our guides in all the 3 countries were very supportive and understanding during the whole trip. They paid attention to every detail, such as more stops during the tours, lunches at carefully chosen restaurants with delicious dishes. My husband and I are vegans and it is sometimes quite hard for us to find an appropriate restaurant in foreign countries. I am mostly satisfied with the hotels as well, good location and nice staff. Thank you for arranging this beautiful vacation.

This was a really special tour to Central Asia. The land is an absolute surprise of ancient culture and wonderful nature. I felt very comfortable just when started my trip planning. My tour agent was very professional always providing proficient and fast answers to any question I had. Tour program is very balanced with some free time to have walked in the cities. Guides are excellent, Uzbekistan guide Anjelika had big knowledge on history, Tajikistan guide Bobozhon was a big fan of nature, his English was not perfect but he made up for it with a good sense of humour. Uzbekistan cities Samarkand Bukhara and Khiva are the real highlight of the tour. Hotels were very good and central located. Only one concern is I wouldn’t mind having freedom on the meals and restaurant choice, that would be great. Overall I am satisfied with Arara Central Asia and sharing information on them.
Many thanks.
