Traveler reviews
Excellent day tour of Gyumri
Our day trip to Gyumri was fantastic and highly recommended. Our guide Gayane spoke excellent English and explained everything in a comprehensive and flawless way. Our driver Sasha was also excellent and made sure our trip was safe and comfortable. My group of 6 had a great day and highly recommends this tour.
Memorable Gyumri Trip
It was a great experience!! Karen made this trip to Gyumri, with all the sites and Harichavank monestary… extremely spiritual (as Karen sang Armenian prayer for us) special, pleasurable and educational. We will keep this in our memory for ever. Karlen our driver made the ride smooth and with fun filled conversation. We enjoyed both their company during a wonderful lunch!
Beautiful day un Giumri
It is a beautiful place, we visited it on Friday the 17th of July, with Guide Arpi who is impressive and very kind, and the driver Garen who made us feel safe all through the trip.

Private tour - Gyumri, Black fortress, Harichavank, Alphabet Park
We visited northern Armenia with our wonderful driver and guide, Araqel (who also took us to the south on another day). The journey itself was stunning, with breathtaking landscapes along the way and truly unforgettable destinations. Gyumri was especially impressive—full of charm and offering beautiful views. Although it was a bit too snowy at the Armenian Alphabet Monument, the experience was still absolutely worth it. I highly recommend this trip. And if you’re lucky enough to have Araqel or Alexander as your driver, you’re in for a treat—they both have deep knowledge of the country’s culture and history and make the experience even more meaningful.
