Khor Virap, Garni, Geghard with Symphony & Lavash Baking

Natasha_Q, Oct 2026

An amazing day exploring Armenia! 🇦🇲

I had a fantastic full-day tour visiting Khor Virap, Azat Reservoir, Garni Temple, the Symphony of Stones, a traditional lavash baking experience and lunch in Garni, and the beautiful Geghard Monastery. My favourite part of the day was definitely the Symphony of Stones — such a unique and impressive natural wonder! Every stop offered something special, from Armenia’s incredible landscapes and rich history to its culture and traditions. The lavash baking experience and lunch in Garni were also wonderful highlights and a great way to experience local Armenian culture. A special mention to Nektar, our guide, who was friendly, engaging, and genuinely interested in getting to know each traveller. She created a welcoming atmosphere and made the experience feel personal and enjoyable. Hrant, our driver, was professional throughout the day and made sure we got to every destination safely and comfortably. Overall, this was a well-organised, robust and memorable tour that I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to discover some of Armenia’s most beautiful and fascinating places in one day. A big thank you to Nektar and Hrant for making it such a great experience!

Tatev Khndzoresk Shaki Waterfall Areni Winery Tour from Yerevan

Long tour but worth it

The guide was very enthusiastic sharing information with us and kept the long tour alive. Because this is quite a long tour. It took us 15 hours. They offered two stops for food, one for breakfast and another for lunch. You have the option to not buy any food and bring your own. I find this very convenient as you might not like the options at the restaurants and I personally prefer not to obligated to buy something when it is not included in the price. The trip was very entertaining overall. The Khndzoresk Swinging Bridge was an experience for me. Also the teleferic "Wings of Tatev" offers breathtaking views. I definitely recommend this tour ! Just be ready for a full and long day.

Group Tour: Haghpat, Zarni-Parni Caves, Akhtala, Aramyants Castle, Sanahin
