Traveler reviews
A fantastic and well-organized tour!
I am absolutely thrilled with this tour! Everything from the prompt pickup to the very end was flawless. The guide was incredibly engaging and made the journey truly special. The atmosphere was magical, and the overall experience completely exceeded my expectations. Fantastic value for money—I highly recommend it!
Great Day Trip with a very professional guide
We had a great time on this tour. From the first moment it struck us as a professional, well-organised choice. Great value for money particularly when compared to the multiple other options that were trying to give us flyers on the street. The tour was truly bilingual (my wife speaks Russian whereas I don’t). We were offered free water throughout the tour to help keep us refreshed on a hot August day. The best of all was our tour guide Marina who went out of her way to give thorough information at each of the stops, answered all our questions with patience and knowledge, and generally made sure we were all happy with the trip. We also had a very nice lunch during the tour. Also an additional shout out to our driver, Spartak, who agreed to us having an additional 30 minutes at our final stop as it was very busy the day we went.
A great and informative tour of beautiful sites
Marina and Spartak were excellent! Very informative, friendly, and accommodating. I would highly recommend them both!
Very nice tour
The tour was very pleasant. I had Hayk as a guide, he gave me quite a few tips for my trip to Armenia. I recommend it!
Perfect day with Hayk and Aro
We had a great time, we learned many interesting and important things about Armenia and its culture, Hayk was very kind and helpful also Aro gave us a nice and comfortable ride!
