Hello There!
I'm Aneliya Koleva
Welcome to Zaraya Travel! I am so glad you are here.
Planning a trip should be just as exciting as the journey itself, but too often it becomes stressful. That is where I come in. At Zaraya Travel, we turn your “someday” plans into “packing my bags” reality.
I founded this company with a simple mission: to help people explore the world with confidence and joy. No cookie-cutter itineraries—just authentic adventures tailored specifically to you.

My Recent Tours
Petra, Jordan
With much of the city still buried underground, Petra feels like a real-life Indiana Jones set. Whether you’re hiking the 800 steps to the heights or visiting by candlelight during Petra by Night, the energy is electric.
Merzouga , Morocco
For the ultimate experience, take a multi-day camel trek into the Erg Chebbi dunes to sleep in a traditional desert camp under the brightest stars you’ll ever see.
Africa, Tanzania
If you want to experience the Camel Safari, visit the Mkuru Camel Group near Arusha. It’s a community-run initiative that supports local Maasai schools while giving you a view of Mount Meru you can’t get from a car.
Best Memomries
The smell of spices in a Moroccan souk, the silence of the desert during a camel trek.
The awe of seeing Petra’s rose-red stone for the first time.
The tone should be inspiring, adventurous, and slightly poetic, inviting the reader to start their own journey.
