Must visit sites in Armenia
Echmiadzin is the must visit holy site in Armenia. Equally Zvartnots, the ruins of the once grand structure is not to be missed. It’s a short comfortable tour, our guide Karen is very nice, knowledgeable, artistic. Please be prepared to dress modestly cover knees, shoulder, head for ladies in Echmiadzin.

We had a wonderful half-day trip to Echmiadzin with Hyur Service. Our tour guide, Arpi, was very professional, knowledgeable, and engaging throughout the tour. We learned a lot and really enjoyed the whole experience. Thank you, Arpi and Hyur Service! Highly recommended.
