Very few people have climbed Mount Ararat. It is only in the last 30+ years that it has become accessible to trekkers. Because of the new nature of tourism in eastern Turkey we recommend that you only travel with experienced guides and through reputable companies. Our company has been offering treks to Mount Ararat for over 20 years – so if you travel with us you will get a true local experience.
A number of new companies, both Turkish and Western, have started offering treks to Mount Ararat but they don’t have the same experience or links with the local community like we do.
We use local staff – our philosophy is to ensure that they prosper from tourism as well.
