Your Local DMC in Armenia & Georgia

Spira Travel: the DMC partners choose when good enough isn't good enough. Founded on a simple belief — exceptional travel experiences require people who've actually lived the industry, not just studied it.

Our Story

Siranush Piloyan — Co-Founder

For more than seventeen years, Siranush has been leading tours across her native Armenia, as well as Georgia, Egypt, and Jordan. What began on the road has grown into a lifelong career, and the road is still where she feels most at home. 

Since then, she has experienced tourism from almost every angle: leading journeys, advising the Tourism Committee of Armenia’s Ministry of Economy; and designing travel experiences for government delegations, private clients, media representatives, and many travel companies. She later founded her own marketing company, where much of her work focuses on developing destinations and creating new tourism experiences.

But the road has remained her most important classroom. Years of traveling, guiding, returning to the same places, working with local communities, and watching people experience a destination for the first time have shaped the way she thinks about travel.

For Siranush, a great journey is rarely defined by how much you manage to see. It is often something much smaller that stays with you: seeing Mount Ararat for the first time, being invited to a table you hadn’t planned to sit around, or having a conversation that makes you understand a place differently.

That belief became part of the foundation of Spira Travel.

Naveen Macardell — Co-Founder

Naveen is American and trained as a chemical engineer. His professional life took him to Silicon Valley, where he led operations across five companies. Travel, meanwhile, took him almost everywhere else.

He has now visited more than 150 countries, not as part of the travel industry, but simply because he has always been curious about the world. Over the years, that curiosity changed the way he traveled. Seeing the landmarks mattered less; understanding a place mattered more. That perspective became part of Spira Travel. Siranush knows travel from inside the industry; Naveen knows it from a lifetime spent on the other side of the itinerary.

Social Impact

At Spira Travel, we believe travel should do more than inspire: it should create real, lasting impact.

Young girls՛ education: We are deeply committed to supporting young women who are seeking access to education, opportunity, and independence. Education transforms futures. With every booking, we donate 5% of proceeds directly toward girls’ education, turning your journey into someone else’s future.

Women Entrepreneurship: Around the world, we work with and uplift women-led businesses, local artisans, and community initiatives, ensuring that the journeys we create contribute directly to economic empowerment at a local level—because when women thrive, entire communities grow stronger with them. 

Every journey we design is guided by the belief that travel should open doors not only for our travelers, but also for the people and communities who welcome them.

Let’s Build Something Exceptional

When you send your clients to Spira Travel, you’re doing more than booking a trip. Every traveler you refer supports women’s education, uplifts local entrepreneurs, and strengthens the communities.

We handle every detail on the ground. You deliver an experience your clients will never stop talking about — and a story they’ll feel proud to be part of.

Send us your travelers. Together, we’ll change more than their itinerary.
