5.00I had an interesting day in Armenia. Saw a lot of historical places and the tour ended with an amazing wine degustation. Our tour guide Nektar was very helpful and talked history about the places that we visited and about Armenia generally.:)

5.00The places are beautiful, close to the capital, the route is optimized to see each stage calmly. Both the monasteries and the cave are very interesting as well as well maintained. Noravank is worth the tour alone, spectacular. The guide, Arsen, speaks exceptional English and is very professional, as well as nice and friendly. Satisfied!
Really great, full of positive energy

5.00I made several tours and enjoyed this one a lot! Yes the sites are definitely worth visiting!! But also the service, the company is fantastic! We were a small group. We were not overloaded with irrelevant information. But we got the most important and all questions were happily answered. We got the time we needed and felt free to explore, but same time everything was perfectly organised. The overall atmosphere was more familiar, Arsen is a really friendly guide and I would have done more tours if I would have not done others before. This was my last one in Armenia and the best!! Highly recommendable!! Thank you so much Arsen and hopefully see again!
Tatev travel is the best
