“Well organised tour, informed und knowledgable guide, good programme, modern bus and free wifi. But sometimes it felt that the Russian participants got quite more information and funny anecdotes, the English just the must haves. That was sad. And nobody cared that more than half of the group wasn’t wearing face masks. Hey, it’s COVID, also in Armenia :(”

“Nice day tour to see some of the most important land marks of Armenia. Because it being a off season the tour was bilingual. The guide Tigran handled it very well. He was a great tour guide overall. Driver Araik was also one of the safest drivers in Armenia I had during my visit which was great. Lavash baking is in a family run restaurant where you also have lunch together (paid by you) so suggest you order one of the options in the bus as there are no other lunch options close by. Lunch was nice family style served so recommend it. Sadly when I was on the tour…”

“Wonderful tour with my lovely guide Michael and our driver Levon. This is my first time in Armenia and Michael introduced me to Armenian history, gave suggestions about other places to visit and even suggested local foods to try. Both places we visited - Garni temple and Geghard monastery are like out of this world, beautiful, and very important historical places for Armenia. Unfortunately we couldn't see mount Ararat from it's viewing point, but in Geghard monastery we were surprised by a local chorus performing a religious singing in one of the carved halls, such a magical experience. Big thanks to driver Levon for driving safely on mountain roads and…”
