Fantastic tour, brilliant tour guide!

Yasmina was a fantastic guide who knew absolutely everything about the sites we visited and provided an excellent running narrative about history, language, culture, food of Armenia while patiently and expertly answered my many questions! The tour was well-designed to allow us some time to explore each stop on our own after getting briefed by her on what we were seeing. The sites themselves were fascinating and beautiful. I highly recommend this easy day-trip and Yasmina's guidance for anyone visiting Armenia!
