What To Expect
Garni Temple
Garni temple, which towers over a triangular cape, is the unique survived example of heathen culture in Armenia. It is a blend of Greco-Roman and Armenian styles. King Trdat The First ordered building the temple in the first century AD and dedicated it to the God of Sun. After adopting Christianity in 301, the pagan temple lost its significance and the fortress of Garni became the summer residence of the kings. Nowadays the ruins of the royal palace and the bathroom with a stunning mosaic work can be found near the temple.
The Monastery of Geghard
Geghard monastery is the unsurpassable masterpiece of the 13th century Armenian architecture. Some of the churches of the complex are masterfully hewn in a huge rock. From the outset the complex was called Ayrivank (cave monastery), later it was renamed Geghard (lance) as the lance, used by the roman soldier to sting Jesus Christ's side, had been kept in this monastery for many centuries. Due to its construction, Geghardavank serves the best place for singing spiritual songs. The complex is rich in subtle sculptural embellishments and many striking khachkars (cross-stones). The site is included in UNESCO World Cultural Heritage List.

5.00In May 2026 we were in Yerevan, we were advised by this agency, there booked an individual tour and remained absolutely delighted!!! There were three of us, so we were picked up from the hotel on the Camry Toyota in excellent condition (clean car). Guide Jasmine told us interesting facts about Armenia, Armenian culture and life throughout the 7-8 hours, immersed us in the history of sights, and answered our questions. A very erudite and pleasant young girl. Driver Gregory also told many interesting and educational stories. After a whole day together in the same car, it seemed like we'd known each other for years! Jasmine and Gregory, thank you very much for this day, for your communication and openness ☺️ The only thing - not very lucky with the weather in Sevan (but you have to be prepared for this just in case, so warm things there will definitely not be excessive) We also recommend this agency for its excellent organization and logistics (helped to plan a customized itinerary and added another location (extra charge))

5.00We thank our guide Akob, driver Spartacus and manager Anna for the clear organization of the program, we had a tour for several days, 3 full tour days. Initially we were given an interesting route, and it was perfectly organized. The guide gave an interesting and detailed account of the history of Armenia and interesting facts about the places we visited. Found common ground with all the members of our international group. Fishing was also organized on Lake Sevan.

5.00I highly recommend this company and their service. The tours are impressive, we took them without a guide, but our driver, Harut, replaced him for us. An incredibly kind and attentive person who showed us the beauty of Armenia and replaced the guide. Highly recommend it!

5.00An unforgettable experience. Thanks to driver Alshot, and especially to guide Edvard, who gave practically all the explanations in English only for me, since the rest of the travelers were Russian speakers. 10, and 100% recommended.
Absolutely amazing trip!!!

5.00We were a family of 4 (2 adults + 2 kids). We came to Armenia to celebrate my birthday and this agency was a total gem. We have asked for a private tour and Aro was assigned to us as our driver. We had an absolutely magical experience with him. Aro has shown us his wonderful country from an absolutely wonderful perspective full of enjoyment and laughter. His customer service is simply outstanding. He has taken care of each and every detail possible and impossible. We were taken everywhere and given enough time to enjoy sightseeing at our pace without being rushed. I totally recommend both Aro and this agency. They have something for everyone. Aro is an asset to your team. Thank you for everything. Armenia is absolutely a place to be back!
Good memories trip

5.00It was a great trip for our family. The driver Leon and guide Anait met us in the morning and our journey started. We were lucky to see the Ararat on first stop at view point and it was great. All places we visited were so old that it's hard to believe. Also we were lucky that it's a snowy winter in Armenia and views along the trip were terrific. This trip took us almost whole day (including dinner at the restaurant near lake Sevan), and it was full of interesting facts from the history of Armenia and beautiful landscapes. We are very thankful to our staff, Anait and Leon, for this wonderful journey!
Excellent tour

5.00The tour was very enjoyable - the guide talked a lot about Armenian history, architecture and various legends. The guide also answered all questions and created comfortable conditions during the tour. Our guide was Anait Kazarian. The driver also really liked it – comfortable driving, all on schedule, thank you very much! The driver was Arakel. The tour route itself is very picturesque, it was very interesting to get acquainted with Armenia during the tour, we hope that we will come and choose other tour options! Thank you very much for the quality service!
