Arena Winery, Shaki Falls and Tatev Monastery

Really enjoyed this tour! It was an incredibly busy and beautiful day, one that will definitely be remembered for a long time. Especially liked the waterfall of Shaki and Tatev - the nature there is simply fascinating. Tatev and the views from the cable car are incredible! 😍 A special big thank you to our guide Samwell. A very pleasant, benevolent man, with whom it was easy and interesting in a friendly atmosphere. And of course, thanks to driver Lavon! The ride was comfortable and peaceful, despite the rather long route and serpentines. It was nice to feel safe and just enjoy the stunning scenery outside the window. Despite the long journey, I recommend this tour!
