Great Tour Guide - This was a great tour. The city tour was good. We also visited several ruins and cathedrals. I was the only Englush speaking person on the tour, but the guide made every effort to describe everything in both English and Russian. A great tour guide!

History of Christianity in Armenia: fascinating, informative and inspired - I thank guide Samvel and driver Vartan for their wonderful trip, I love professionals and people in love with their business - energetic, charismatic and very much aware of their country and its history! The tour is compact but very competently structured, the theme is unusually interesting, the sights visited were very impressive and added even more respect for beloved Armenia and its people🙏
