What To Expect
Khor Virap
Khor Virap is the most famous pilgrimage site in Armenia, as it is directly connected with the adoption of Christianity. As a state religion, Christianity in Armenia was adopted in 301 due to endeavors of Saint Gregory The Illuminator, who, before converting King Trdat The 3rd to Christianity, was imprisoned in the dungeon, over which a church of Khor Virap monastery was built in the 17th century. From the monastery one can admire the stunning view of the Biblical Mount Ararat.
Noravank Monastery
Passing a narrow road, surrounded by rocks of hundred caves, one discovers a scene of harmony of architecture with nature. The monastery, enshrined with fine architectural solutions and luxurious embellishments, is one of the brightest examples of Armenian architecture of the 13th century. Noravank consists of St. Karapet, St. Gregory The Illuminator churches and St. Astvatsatsin (Holy Mother of God) two-storey church, which is notable for its ideal constructive and sculptural work.

5.00An unforgettable experience in Armenia! The tour with Hyur service was fantastic from start to finish. Anush and Taguhi are exceptional guides; not only do they know history perfectly, but they convey their passion for the country in every detail. In addition, we felt very safe thanks to Harut, our driver, who was very professional and friendly throughout. If you are looking to discover the essence of Armenia with wonderful local people, this is the ideal team! Fully recommended

5.00Good morning, we were 9 people and we did a private 3 day tour with Hyur Service. Armenia and Armenians are special. We saw incredible places, I was impressed by the Noravank and the Syunik mountains. Special thanks to Hyur Service for the impeccable organization and to Liana, our wonderful guide. Without her, it wouldn't have been so good. Thank you again.

5.00Today was my third day joining a private tour with Hyur, and once again it was a truly wonderful experience. My guide Nelly and driver Grigor were both very kind, gentle, and professional. Nelly was extremely knowledgeable and shared many additional insights throughout the journey, allowing me to understand Armenia’s history and culture on a much deeper level. Without these private, in-depth tours, I would never have had the chance to learn so many details and hidden stories about this country. The itinerary today was quite long — about 12 to 13 hours round trip — but it was perfectly organized. There were plenty of rest stops, and the schedule was well balanced, so I never felt rushed or tired. I tend to ask a lot of questions, and Nelly was always patient to explain everything in detail. I’m also very grateful to Grigor for his safe and comfortable driving throughout such a long journey. thank you for such a wonderful experience! 今天是第三天參加Hyur的private tour，又是非常棒的一天！真的超讚！ 今天的導覽Nelly和司機Grigor都是非常友善溫柔的人， Nelly同樣非常專業，在旅途中也額外補充了很多資訊，真的非常感謝她能夠讓我更深入了解亞美尼亞，沒有參加這些private tour的深度導覽，真的沒機會了解這麼多細節還有額外的歷史和文化，今天的行程時長非常長，來回需要將近12-13小時，途中都有充分的休息時間，時間都安排的很妥當，不會覺得很趕，我超級愛問問題，Nelly也和之前的導覽一樣非常有耐心的回答我，也謝謝司機Grigor在如此長途的旅程中安全駕駛讓我整趟旅程舒適，今天還是覺得超棒！也超開心！
