I can not recommend this agency. The guides are not trained professionally and don't know what they are doing. They have no formal training and the claims about the guides made on this website are a scam in my opinion.

We did the 7 days Ararat Tour in May. It was an Adventure and we enjoyed it very much. I can highly recommend TAF Travel as a tour operator. The Communication before and during the tour was excellent. Even tough the weather was quiet rough, we were well taken care of. The guides always made sure, we have everything we need. We got good food, everything was clean and the mattresses were comfortable. The view, sunset and the stars in the night were amazing. If your looking for your next adventure, book TAF Travel :-)

In July 2024, my partner and I embarked on an incredible adventure with TAF Travel, exploring the captivating region of Eastern Turkey and climbing the majestic Mount Ararat. From start to finish, TAF Travel exceeded our expectations and provided an unforgettable experience. Upon arrival in Dogubayazit, we were warmly welcomed and accommodated in a pristine hotel with a stunning view of Mount Ararat. The hotel was exceptionally clean and comfortable, offering a perfect base for our adventures. The breathtaking view of the mountain from our room added a magical touch to our stay. Firat, the manager of TAF Travel, played a pivotal role in ensuring our trip was seamless and enjoyable. His communication with us was exemplary, staying in contact and addressing all our queries before and during the trip. Firat's dedication and attentiveness made us feel well cared for and confident in our journey. On our first night in the hotel, Firat took us out for a delightful dinner, introducing us to the local cuisine and culture. His hospitality and genuine kindness were evident throughout our stay. He also personally escorted us to the Pasha Palace, which I didn't know was included in the price! The highlight of our trip was undoubtedly the climb up Mount Ararat. Climbing the mountain was an incredible experience, and our guide was professional all the way. TAF Travel provided excellent guidance and support during the entire hike. We felt safe and well-prepared, thanks to the experienced guides and well-organised itinerary. The ascent was challenging yet immensely rewarding, offering breathtaking views and a profound sense of achievement. It is a trip we will never forget. Firat also organised our trip to Armenia the week after, including transportation to the Georgian border and on into Armenia, and guides in Armenia for day trips. Everything went smoothly, and we thank TAF Travel for that. Firat, an inspirational entrepreneur, leads TAF Travel with a commitment to excellence and a personal touch that sets the company apart. Firat and his two brothers (Rohat and Azat) have incredible passion for the region and the dedication to their clients shine through in every aspect of the tour. We are grateful for all their efforts in making our journey unforgettable, and I hope to climb another mountain with TAF Travel in the future. Thank you for everything guys!

I was lucky to climb Ararat in August 2024 with Taf Agency. All the team is super organized and professional during the whole process of the expedition. The greetings, departures, arrivals, delivery of baggage to the mountain, food, tents - you get everything what you need and exactly when you need it. The guides are very professional, always keep you on the route, are very friendly and ready to assist whenever you ask. We successfully climbed the mountain and reached the summit, everybody who needed assistance and help got it as well. The guys organize delivery of baggage to 1st camp (3200) and 2nd camp (4100), so you don’t need to carry all your baggage during the ascent. The guys from kitchen prepare a good food packs for daily trips, cook very tasty breakfasts/lunch/dinners. The team also provides additional equipment like poles, sleeping bags, crampons on the request. Highly recommend to all travellers! It was my first big climbing and I am super pleased by professionalism of the team!

Climbed in a group in August 2024, a very well organized 6 day tour, horse transport, tents, meals provided on time and very helpful Ahmed guide and Ahmed master chef. Only good impressions, I recommend the tour.

Mir hat der ganze aufenthalt sehr gefallen. Die Organisation war Top. Sehr Nette leute. Auch Firat ist ein sehr netter Mensch. Auch die Übernachtungen in den Basecamps waren sehr gut. Im allgemeinen würde ich TavTravel sehr weiter empfelen. Top
