A wonderful tour and a great day in Armenia

A wonderful tour and a great day in Armenia! In August we visited Garni, Geghard, tried baking lavash, visited Lake Sevan and the Sevanavank monastery. Everything was organized perfectly. A huge thank you to our guide Gayana! She is very pleasant, kind, attentive, and knows the history and culture of Armenia perfectly. Thanks to her interesting stories, the tour was easy, engaging, and left the warmest impressions. Thank you very much, Gayana, for a wonderful day and unforgettable emotions! I highly recommend this tour and Gayane as a wonderful guide! 🇦🇲

Great value

Started off great with a free upgrade to a bigger vehicle. Hayk was our driver and he was great! We got the package that included food and admission and felt that it was really worth it. The lunch was great and we got to chat more with our driver Hayk and he tought us some Armenian. I just wouldn’t get my hopes up with the lavash making because the most they will let you do is roll out the bread not actually put it in the oven and all that but still a fun experience. We got the opportunity to spend as much time as we wanted at each stop. We also had a baby with us so getting the family in the car took some time but Hayk was very patient and kind even though we were late
