Inspired by the tour of Armenia and want to come again! - Many thanks to the wonderful guide Marina for the tour! It is nice when a man loves his camp, his work and is happy to share with other exciting legends and historical traditions of his country. If we are in Armenia again, we will definitely take another excursion from your company! Thanks also to driver Karen for the soft ride. Usually, I get a bit bogged down in transport, but then it went perfectly)

Tour was fantastic. Guide... - Tour was fantastic. Guide Marina was super informative and learnt so much about Armenia and the different sites from her, including some very fun facts which I would never had known of she didn't point it out. Lunch was at the place we had wine and got to taste also a local sweet treat. Food was very tasty. Safely driven by Haik. Would highly recommend the tour.

Temples and churches in Yerevan that you cannot miss. - Extraordinary half-day tour to visit Yerevan's UNESCO heritage churches and temples. They are all very close to the capital. There is not much travel by bus.

Spiritual Capital of Armenia - Our tour guide Liana was very informative and helpful. Also our driver Spartak was excellent, taking us to the different sites in a safe and timely manner. It is a shame that during the last leg of the tour it began to rain and we were unable to fully explore the Zvartnots site. Overall, an excellent trip, I would highly recommend.
