5.00First timer in Armenia is like a perfect experience with the help of Jan Armenia Tours & Travel. They have coordinated great drivers and experienced tour guide Gohar and help us to well understand the rich history, culture and people while visiting and exploring some wonders of Armenia. This made our visit more memorable. Furthermore, visit in Armenia is not complete without trying some of their famous dishes like Tolma, Lavash bread, Armenian Tabbouleh, tasty & tender pork and Gata cake.

5.00Getting a tour when you have limited time is the best way to know the city you are visiting. I had a great time being solo traveller since I own my time. Gagik let me spend all the time I need playing in the snow and even became my photographer. The tour itself was short since there only 3 destination in this package but the amount of time I spent on those places made it worth while.
Awesome Experience!

5.00Lilit was our travel advisor, we first met her to collect our Yerevan card. She booked all the complimentary tour activities, she helped us with sim card activation. She is one of the best travel advisors I have met in nine years of my travel. She kept in touch throughout our stay and made sure we were okay. She offered many trips as per our taste and we took the private tour to Kari lake and she customised it as per our preferences. The trip was well organized, with free wi-fi and a courteous driver. Anyone visiting Yerevan for the first time would greatly benefit from this travel agency and specifically Lilith. She will definitely help you design trips according to your preferences and answer all your questions with a smile.
