Is the departure of this tour guaranteed?

The date is not guaranteed. Since you are solo traveler it will be twice expensive. I am happy to offer Sept 11 departure, we have people booked for Armenia tour. Sept 11 half of the tour small group, half private. Oct 2 all private.

Will you allow her on the tour? My daughter is turning 6 this year.

We do not have age restriction for the tours, the only thing I am thinking about, your daughter might get tired of some long drive days. We gather small up to 13 people groups, travelers are mainly from English speaking countries.

Is the departure guaranteed? If not, prove a guaranteed departure date.

  Traveler•Written December 2024
  I would like to stay in Van for a few days. Can you change flight?
- Cascade TravelOperator•Written January 2025
  May 8 departure is guaranteed, and we have 8 people booked, but not all people travel to Eastern Turkey. They are booked for the Armenia and Georgia tour. Armenia and Georgia and Armenia and Eastern Turkey start together and have the same itinerary for days 1-6, then people who booked for Armenia and Georgia continue to Georgia, and others to Eastern Turkey accordingly.
- Cascade TravelOperator•Written January 2025
  No the border is closed, and we pass to Georgia and then to Eastern Turkey, there were lots of talks about border opening but it is not done yet.
- Cascade TravelOperator•Written January 2025
  I can book extra nights for you in Van. The flight is not included in the tour price so we do not have any issue with the flight.
