5.00We had a fantastic two day private tour of Armenia with Artur as our driver who was absolutely fantastic! We’d highly recommend Hyur Service you are a very professional company and were excellent in helping us bespoke our tour to our liking. Artur is the best driver we’ve ever had in Armenia. He’s a true gentleman, very polite and friendly and made us feel completely at ease throughout the two days we spent with him. 10 out of 10 all round!

5.00essential tour for those wishing to visit lake Sevan and its environments. we had a private tour without a guide, but the driver Grigor kindly provided essential information for the sites we visited. if in a hurry, you can skip the visit of the Tufenkian Old Dilijan Complex.
Thank you for best service

5.00Wonderful Private Tour with Anush and Goqor My trip was actually a very last-minute booking — I made the reservation just the evening before. I truly appreciate Hyur Service for arranging everything so quickly and allowing me to have this private tour the next morning. At first, I wasn’t particularly excited about the itinerary, but I realized it would be a pity to miss Goshavank Monastery, and not seeing Lake Sevan or Sevanavank would have been regrettable too. I personally love history and culture, so Goshavank was my real highlight — the others were nice additions. The lake was truly vast and beautiful, though. Our guide Anush was amazing — her name is beautiful too! It reminded me of Anoush, the heroine from the classic Armenian opera my previous guide once mentioned. Like all the other guides I’ve met in Armenia, Anush was dedicated, knowledgeable, and passionate, explaining everything along the way even though the weather wasn’t ideal. I still learned so much and felt genuinely happy to have made it to Goshavank. She also took me to a lovely restaurant in Dilijan — the food was delicious. Despite the bad weather and somewhat risky roads, our driver Goqor drove calmly and safely, which made me feel completely at ease. I honestly feel very lucky — every monastery tour I’ve taken in Armenia has been led by incredible guides. I must say, I deeply admire Armenian women; they all seem so well-educated, confident, and kind. Having female guides has always made me feel comfortable and relaxed. That day turned out to be truly rewarding and fulfilling — I was very happy, very satisfied, and grateful to Anush and Goqor for making it such a wonderful journey. 這次的行程是我非常臨時前一天傍晚下訂的，謝謝Hyur Service迅速幫我處理好讓我隔天能順利有這趟private tour。 我本來對這個行程還好，但又覺得沒有去Goshavank很可惜，沒有看到Sevan湖和Sevanank我同樣覺得可惜，我自己是更愛歷史文化的人，所以對我來說Goshavank更重要，其他算附帶，但可以去Sevan湖也不錯，湖真的很大，也很感謝這次的Guide-Anush，名字真美，是我之前的Guide跟我提過的亞美尼亞經典歌劇Anoush(Anush)女主角的名字。Anush在整趟旅途依舊和我遇到的其他Guide一樣盡心盡力和我介紹途中所有的一切，儘管天氣一開始不好，我仍然學到很多，真的超級開心可以去Goshavank，之後也帶我去了一家Dilijan的餐廳，非常美味，天氣非常不好其實蠻危險，但司機Goqor同樣開得很平穩讓我感到安心，我衷心覺得很幸運 在幾趟修道院的旅途都遇到超級優秀的Guide，不得不說我非常佩服亞美尼亞的女性，我感覺亞美尼亞的女性都是高知識份子，這是我的私心，我覺得每趟導覽都是女性讓我很安心舒適，那一天會覺得這一天真是獲益良多，非常滿足、非常開心，又是美好的一天，非常感謝Anush和Goqor帶給我這趟美好的旅程

5.00Our private tour was actually 8 days, with stops in various cities and with an Armenian driver and guide, who spoke perfect Italian. Liana Karapetyan has always assisted and accompanied us, making us fall in love with this country of a thousand churches and breathtaking lunar landscapes. Each stop was accompanied by an explanation that allowed us to understand the history and art of this country. Beautiful monasteries of Sevanavank, Goshavank and also Geghar. You travel in absolute tranquility, kindness, and hospitality is really something that remains in the heart.
Comfortable tour. Excellent guide. Highly recommended.

5.00We thoroughly enjoyed our private tour, which was seamlessly organized and exceptionally comfortable. The vehicle was spotless and very comfortable, making the journey pleasant throughout. Our guide, Rosa, was highly knowledgeable and explained everything with patience and clarity. She went above and beyond by sharing valuable tips on local must‑do activities and must‑try dishes. Rosa thoughtfully adjusted the schedule to accommodate our wish to have trout for lunch, recommending a lovely lakeside restaurant at Lake Sevan which was an excellent choice. Nordic, our driver, was skilled and professional, ensuring a smooth and safe journey in both directions. A heartfelt thank you to Rosa and Nordic for making the day truly memorable. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a well‑planned and enriching experience.
Great experience, lovely day
