2.Private Yerevan City Tour: Erebuni, Matenadaran & Tsitsernakaberd Museums

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 34 reviews · 4 to 5 hours (approx.) · from $63

Explore Yerevan’s Erebuni Fortress, genocide memorial, and Matenadaran with private transport, guide service, and hotel pickup.

“I was also pleased with this tour. However, I was not prepared for the fact that it covered all the museums in Yerevan but did not cover any of the main attractions. My guide and driver were really accommodating though, and amended the itinerary to visit the monuments I wished to visit. Do take note that Hyur Service offers a sightseeing tour that covers the attractions. This tour is better for those who have a strong interest in art history/museums”

3.City Tour in Yerevan with local guide

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 25 reviews · 3 hours · from $43

Explore Yerevan on a three-hour walking tour with a local English-speaking guide, landmark stops, city history, and gata with coffee.

“Gohar is gentle and always ready to answer every questions. However, there was not much interaction and she was for a lot of time answering/chattimg with the mobile phone. The tour description states 3 hours, but we finished in around 2.5 hours (including the walk to the parliament that was not included in the original plan, otherwise we should have finished in 2 hours). I think it is not worth the money spent.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 17 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $65

Explore Soviet Yerevan through metro rides, markets, apartment blocks, snacks, and the Children's Railway on a four-hour small-group tour.

“First of all I have to say that our tour guide as very knowledgeable and confident. Don't think you're going to squeeze in any extra stops on this tour! In all seriousness though the entire route/tour/plan was GREAT. It was very methodical, well planned and executed. Our guide was very knowledgeable and quite nicely interspersed her personal history with what was going on at the time. For anyone who likes Soviet history, this REALLY turned out to be a very pleasant afternoon! If you want to know what "Bangladesh" is all about, you'll have to join the tour to find out :-)”

“We really enjoyed our tour with Nina and Tigran. Nina was an outstanding and wonderful guide - so knowledgeable, engaging and easy to listen to (we could listen to her for hours!). Tigran was an excellent driver, always attentive and thoughtful, even opening the door for us each time. Both of them were incredibly welcoming and friendly. Nina always checked in to see if we wanted to spend more time at different stops. They made the whole experience comfortable and memorable. We went to some amazing places like Lake Sevan, Dilijan, Tzgahakadzor, Lake Parz - we wouldn’t have been able to have had the same experience without Nina’s stories and…”

“Excellent opportunity to explore the key highlights of Yerevan. Arto was a very friendly guide, possessing extensive cultural knowledge. Moreover, he made the tour highly enjoyable and comfortable; it felt like walking with a friend. We were able to coordinate the tour time through WhatsApp, and Arto was considerate in asking about the schedule that suited me best. It was fantastic as we covered various mentioned points and even explored some off-itinerary locations, personalized to enhance my experience of the city. Thanks to Arto, I learned a lot about Yerevan, and I am sincerely grateful for this memorable tour.”
