Incredible day out with Arakel

Arakel gave us the best day out exploring Khor Virap, Noravank, ancient Birds-Cave, Hin Areni wine factory. He was such a genuine guy, good English, good sense of humour, he even organised a surprise birthday cake at lunch for my partner for her bday. He’s a really good driver, and is really professional.
