Top Yerevan Day Trips

It was nice, but I’d skip the winery - it’s too further out, so extra time to get to/from there; plus the tour inside isn’t included. I’d also swap one of the monasteries with Garni temple, as all of the monasteries in this tour are the same, while Garni stands out. Overall, OK. The highlight is the lake, of course.

We enjoyed a great and informative tour with Sunny Arev as our guide and Alexander as our driver. It was very enjoyable and comfortable and we appreciated all of the knowledge that Sunny shared with us, plus the special surprise toward the end of the tour.

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.

The Yerevan Private Walking Food Tour with Anna was an absolute delight! Anna’s deep knowledge of Armenian history seamlessly wove into every bite, as she introduced us to incredible local dishes, sharing their origins and stories with genuine passion. She’s a fantastic ambassador for Yerevan and Armenia, warm, engaging, and proud of her heritage. Highly recommend for anyone craving authentic flavors and culture!

We took a private transfer from Yerevan to Tbilisi with two sightseeing stops, and it was absolutely the best way to travel between the two capitals! We left around 7:15 AM and arrived in Tbilisi at about 2:30 PM. Our driver, Artur, was excellent — friendly, helpful, and very knowledgeable. He even walked up with me to the top of the hill at Lake Sevan to show the two monasteries, shared some of the history, and helped take great photos. We also stopped in Dilijan and at another beautiful monastery along the way, both of which were well worth the visit. The border crossing on the Georgian side took around 40 minutes, and you need to carry your own luggage while clearing immigration. After that, it was a smooth drive straight to Tbilisi. Artur drove safely yet efficiently, took scenic routes, and gave us plenty of time to enjoy each stop. Overall, a perfect and enjoyable journey — highly recommended for anyone traveling between Armenia and Georgia!

Wonderful tour with my lovely guide Michael and our driver Levon. This is my first time in Armenia and Michael introduced me to Armenian history, gave suggestions about other places to visit and even suggested local foods to try. Both places we visited - Garni temple and Geghard monastery are like out of this world, beautiful, and very important historical places for Armenia. Unfortunately we couldn't see mount Ararat from it's viewing point, but in Geghard monastery we were surprised by a local chorus performing a religious singing in one of the carved halls, such a magical experience. Big thanks to driver Levon for driving safely on mountain roads and to my guide Michael for telling the story of Armenia with so much pride and passion. This experience made me want to return to Armenia in some time in the future.

Our group of 15 or so people packed so much into six hours, across Garni, Gegherd and the Symphony of Stones. Our our guide was very friendly and knowledgable too. To be honest, everything was really well organised from the moment I arrived at their office in downtown Yerevan (which was really easy to find). Booking said there was no lunch, but there was plenty of Lavash bread, Armenian cheese and herbs to go around. Thanks very much!
