Well done!

This is one of the best tours I have done so far in Armenia. Special thanks to tour guide Edward. Real professional guide with well studied explanations, narrations not just from boring history books but he did the tour so special with a lot of local legend stories and information that he owned with his own personal research. Not only that, he was amazing with explaining, providing information while driving as well. Also he did give alot of info about Armenia in general. So I learnt much more about the country. He was sooo good with time management too. His tonation while explanation was also worthy to pay attention, it was not borimg listening him. He deserves more than 5 stars. Congrats!!! Apreeek!
