I'd like to learn Mandarin and also have interest learning Russian, Arabic and Spanish, but don't really know where to start. I know apps like Duolingo and Mango exist, but are those the best options? Would I be best off taking a class? To my multi-lingual comrades, where should I start?

Edit: Thanks for all the great replies everyone! I have a lot of resources to look into now.

I bought the Pimsleur polish course and it works really well, it uses a scientifically proven method developed by a professional linguist. Only problem is it costs about $50 per course, but it's a one time purchase for permanent access, so at least it's not a subscription.
