Review of Armenia’s Khor Virap, Noravank and Areni Cave day trip, with mountain views, monastery visits, wine tasting, lunch tips and practical advice.

“The group tour was exceptionally well organized, offering a seamless and enjoyable experience from start to finish. The true highlight was our outstanding guide, Nektar. Her enthusiasm, deep knowledge, and attentive care for each participant transformed the day into something truly memorable. With her engaging storytelling and subtle humor, she created a warm and friendly atmosphere that allowed us to connect effortlessly with our fellow travelers. The lunch and wine tasting at Areni were superb, adding a delightful local touch to the experience. This tour comes with my highest recommendation, and special thanks to Nektar for making it one of the best we’ve ever had. Five stars all the way!”

“The places we visited were really beautiful and totally worth to see! I couldn’t say which one we loved more, everything was amazingly interesting! This tour takes the main places that everybody should visit when traveling in Armenia. Besides, we spent our day with Levon and he was truly the best. He left us take our own time in each place as we wanted, he kindly took great photos, he was a good driver and he also shared great cultural curiosities with us. More than this, he was checking on us all the time and we could see that he really wanted to make us feel comfortable and enjoy the…”

Review of Armenia’s private Khor Virap, Noravank, and Tatev tour from Yerevan, with ropeway tips, costs, timing, and practical advice.

“Booked though Viator, I had a private tour with Raffi (guide) and Avet (driver) from Hyur Service in Armenia. It was a very full day trip to 3 monasteries/church complexes of Khor Virap, Noravank and Tatev monastery and ropeway, plus a lot of wonderful scenery along the way. Raffi was incredibly knowledgeable, extremely engaging, and professional - a top-notch tour guide mixing the right amount of knowledge, topics, and free time to take pictures. It was a fantastic experience, and I could not recommend Raffi, Avet and Hyur more.”

Review of a private Armenia day tour covering Etchmiadzin, Zvartnots, Khor Virap, Garni, and Geghard from Yerevan.

“We booked a day trip with a non-english speaking driver. He used google translate to communicate with us and that worked out very well. On top of that, he had a very gentle driving style. No hair-raising overtaking or close up driving. We felt very safe. Thank you Eduard, for a pleasant and interesting day.”
