Perfect Lake Sevan and Dilijan tour

We had an excellent experience with Samuel and our driver Karen. Sam was very knowledgeable about the history of Armenia and the places we visited. This was a great tour as it was not too far and Dilijan is stunning. The restaurant chosen for lunch was also very good.

Amazing day in Armenia

My booking before leaving home was so smooth. Mery was so helpful and so prompt in getting back to me by email. Our pick up from our hotel was right on time. Our guide was Anna. What a wealth of knowledge and insight she had! Always smiling. Our driver Garen was so experienced with driving especially on those winding roads. Always opening doors and helping us in and out. Our experience was amazing! Thank you to Mery, Anna and Garen.
