Top Yerevan Day Trips - page 10

It was a really nice experience. We met the tour guides at the statue in front of the cascade. It had snowed a lot the night before our tour so all the roads were icy. As a result our driver was a bit late but our guide, Anastasia was there. As we waited she gave us a small tour of the square in front of the cascade and then invited us up to their offices and gave us each a hot coffee and some Armenian cakes. The driver came and was really lovely and carefully drove us around the whole day. Even if there was snow and ice everywhere he was very careful and we felt very safe. The car was also very clean, spacious and comfortable. Anastasia explained everything and answered all our questions. We also really enjoyed the format of the tour. For every stop she came with us explained why the place is interesting and answered all our questions and then left us on our own to explore at our own pace. The lavash making experience was nice and the restaurant had a beautiful view over the mountains. The lunch was nice as well, and we got to eat the lavash we made with cheese and herbs from the mountains. Overall a really nice tour, the only thing we regret is not booking more tours with this same company. Very professional and attentive.

An outstanding tour and an unforgettable experience. Our guide, Harut, was incredibly knowledgeable about Armenia, its history, culture, and spoke so many languages. He communicated beautifully with everyone in our international group and had a great sense of humour, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Thanks to him, we discovered so many wonders : Khor Virap, Noravank, Jermuk, the hot springs, and enjoyed wine tasting along the way. Everything was well organized, informative, and fun. Truly one of the highlights of our trip!

I went on this group tour on the 30th of November 2025. It was a wonderful experience and absolutely worth the money paid. Operator: The tour operator - Yerani Travel was clear and prompt with their communication about the tour and pickup location. The pickup point was a central location very easy to navigate to. It was a group tour in a shared mini-van which had comfortable seating and a nice driver. Activity: All the stops were amazing. we stopped at Khor Virap Monastery, Noravank Monastery, Areni Cave, and also went on an elaborate wine tasting with proper details and explanations. The activities were exactly as given in the tour description. We also had lunch at a beautiful restaurant, but I personally felt the food wasn't that great for the price we paid and the menu was fixed to 4 types of meals. However the the arrangements were systematic and smooth. Our guide distributed the menu right after our first stop, and we placed our food orders well in advance. So the lunch arrangements were smooth with no confusions or delays. Now, the main highlight of the tour was our guide Nare. This tour wouldn't have been 100% great without her. She was AMAZING. She organised and managed everything smoothly and efficiently. She gave details explanations about everything and carefully answered all our questions and queries and confusions. She also told us a lot of stories, historical details, facts and figures. Her story telling skill is exceptional. You would feel the stories and historical facts in your head and heart. He management style is amazing. Not even a single trouble or problem anywhere in the tour. We didn't even notice the long drive or tiredness as all of us were engaged with her story telling and narrations. She is a real asset to the company. I would 101% recommend this tour to any body anyday. Thank you Yerani Travel.

Once more Yerani travel professionally took us on this long drive but wonderful day trip. The Tatev cable car ride was thrilling and the Tatev Monastery impresses with the majestic architecture. As for the water falls nature never stop amazing us with its creations. Nektar the guide was so articulate and spoke fluently English and with a vibrant character made the trip even more interesting. Culinary no matter which of the set menus would be chosen there was a big variety of salads soup and main course and all was exceptional tasty and the restaurant owner was welcoming offering his own vodka production and treats that made the difference. The wine tasting gave a chance to taste both grapes and fruit wine products that were of interest.

Our guide (Hyke?) was absolutely impressive — he speaks fluently in three languages, including English, which is not easy to find in Armenia. He was very knowledgeable and shared so many interesting facts and insights throughout the tour. The trip was well organized, and we visited many beautiful places. Due to some issues on the road, we had to skip two planned stops, but they were replaced with great alternatives, so the experience still felt complete. The images and views along the way were wonderful.

Our guide, Ellen, made the tour transcend the simple focus on just the foods of this beautiful country. Her broad and cumulative knowledge of Armenia’s history, art, architecture, and social fabric made every walk between restaurants a tour in and of itself. Her command of English was impressive and her demeanor was both professional as well as collegial and charming. The foods were carefully selected, freshly prepared - and simply outstanding. I cannot emphasize enough how well this tour initiated and oriented us into Yerevan as a first activity in the city.

Total 5 stops on the trip from 10 am to 4 pm. View point of mount Ararat, Garni Temple, Lavash baking, symphony of stones and Gehard monastery. Decent time at every location. Free water but no lunch break. Gayane our tour guide kept us informed and timely.

We were not sure what to expect because we had never used Viator before but after seeing positive reviews, and being discouraged by other alternatives of getting to Tbilisi from Yerevan, we decided to give this a go. The overall experience with Sergey who organized the trip and with Artur, our driver, was fantastic. Sergey was very helpful in providing all the detailed answers to my questions and responded promptly, and Artur was very kind, professional, and a safe driver. We were picked up from our address of choice and dropped off at our address of choice, and getting to see some beautiful spots on the way saved us doing an extra trip while in Armenia. Our driver provided us with some interesting facts about each site which added to our enjoyment of the experience. I would recommend this option and this specific service to anyone in a similar position!
