Monasteries, Mountains and Emerald Sevan

Great tour, measured and varied! First we visited the Kecharis Monastery, then we took a cable car ride in Tsakhkadzor. Our beautiful guide Gajane gave us a gata, so when we got to the summit we had tea and gata. Next, we had a great lunch, then a tour in Sevanovanka, and there were 1.5 hours of free time left, which we spent swimming in the beautiful emerald lake of Sevan and riding on the same boat. Throughout the trip, Gayane told many interesting things about Armenia and the places we visited, always clearly condemned important information and tried to make our trip as comfortable as possible. Our driver, Lavon, in turn drove us safely and expertly back and forth. If you want to spend a leisurely day enjoying the cultural program, mountains and sea, food, swimming in the sea, I strongly recommend this tour!

Super!!! First timers in Armenia, mast have

Awesome tour. Everyone made it easy. We went to Sunday service in an ancient monastery, swam and took a boat ride on Lake Sevan, ate very delicious fish barbecue, took a cable car ride on Mount Tsakhkadzor. And yet not too tired, still have strength for the evening. Guide Gayane is very pleasant, told many interesting facts.
