Your acquaintance with Armenia will begin with a sightseeing tour of its capital, Yerevan, one of the oldest cities in the world. Over the course of four hours, we will visit the main attractions that reveal the unique appearance and soul of the city.

The tour will start from the Mother Armenia monument, which offers a breathtaking view of the legendary Mount Ararat. We will climb the famous Cascade, the longest architectural staircase in Yerevan, ride through the picturesque gorge of the Hrazdan River, which serves as the city’s embankment, and stroll along the central streets that shape the artistic and architectural mood of the capital. At the end of the morning, we will visit Republic Square, Station Square, and the majestic Church of St. Gregory, the second largest church in the Transcaucasus.

After a busy morning, you will be taken on a tour of the Armenian carpet factory, where you will discover the ancient secrets of carpet weaving. Lunch at the factory restaurant will complement the experience with traditional Armenian dishes.

On the second day of our trip we will go to Holy Etchmiadzin – the spiritual heart of Armenia and the symbol of Christianity. Here you will visit unique monuments included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.

Our journey will begin with the Church of Saint Hripsime, built in 618. This masterpiece of early Christian architecture amazes with its architectural severity and harmony. Next, we will head to the Cathedral of Saint Etchmiadzin, founded in the 4th century. This first Christian cathedral in the world is rightfully considered the main shrine of the Armenian Apostolic Church.

After that, you will discover the most striking monument of medieval Armenian architecture – the Zvartnots Temple. Built in the 7th century, this majestic temple, which had five entrances, amazes with the elegance of its forms and the skill of the ancient architects.

In the afternoon we will go to the family winery “Aratashen” for lunch. Here you will taste the best Armenian wines and have a cozy lunch in a family restaurant, which will be a wonderful end to a busy day.

At 10:00 AM we set off on a journey full of historical and natural wonders! The first stop is the Charents Arch, which can be called an ideal photo spot. It offers a stunning view of the Ararat Valley and the majestic Mount Ararat.

The next stop is the picturesque Azat Reservoir, hidden among the mountains, where nature seems to have specially created a corner for inspiration and peace.

Next, we will visit the ancient pagan temple of Garni, the only one of its kind in the entire post-Soviet space. This temple, built in the 1st century AD, amazes with its architectural perfection and harmonious location against the backdrop of a mountain landscape. In 2011, the Garni temple was awarded the UNESCO Prize for the Preservation of Cultural Heritage.

After the Garni temple we will go to the gorge where a real miracle of nature is located – the Symphony of Stones. These amazing basalt columns, similar to a giant organ, were created by nature itself, and their bizarre forms are breathtaking.

The final chord of our excursion will be the Geghard Monastery, founded in the 4th century. This complex, carved directly into the rocks, amazes not only with its antiquity, but also with its incredible energy. Geghard is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List as a masterpiece of medieval architecture and spirituality.

For lunch, we will go to a cozy family restaurant in the countryside. Here you will not only try traditional Armenian dishes, but also take part in a master class on making Armenian lavash – bread, which is also recognized as an intangible heritage of UNESCO.

After such a busy day, we will return to Yerevan, where you will have free time for rest and evening walks.

At 10:00 am we set off for the picturesque region of Lori to visit two outstanding monuments of Armenian architecture – the monasteries of Haghpat and Sanahin, which are listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

The first stop is the Haghpat Monastery, founded in the 10th century. This unique complex amazes with its grandeur and sophistication. Haghpat seems to have frozen in time, revealing pages of medieval Armenian history to you. Gothic architecture, stone carvings and ancient frescoes create a sense of mysticism and awe.

Next we will visit the Sanahin Monastery, located nearby. Its name translates as “The Elder of this” – this is how local residents emphasized the antiquity and importance of the monastery. Sanahin was an important center of science and education: there was an academy here where future scientists and clergymen were trained.

For lunch, we will visit a restaurant with a view of a picturesque gorge. You will enjoy not only delicious dishes of Armenian cuisine, but also a peaceful atmosphere created by the beauty of the surrounding nature.

After lunch we will continue our journey, admiring the landscapes of the Lori region, and in the evening we will return to Yerevan so that you can rest and prepare for new discoveries.

At 11:00 am we set off for a relaxing day at one of Armenia’s natural wonders, Lake Sevan, which is called the “pearl of the Armenian mountains”.

Our first stop is the famous Sevanavank Monastery, located on a peninsula with stunning views of the turquoise waters of the lake. Built in the 9th century, this monastery maintains an atmosphere of solitude and spirituality, and its location makes it one of the most photogenic places in Armenia.

After the excursion, you will have time to enjoy the fresh air and tranquility on the lake shore. For lunch, we will go to a cozy restaurant right on the coast, where you will be offered dishes of the freshest fish and traditional delicacies of Armenian cuisine.

This day is perfect for relaxing, recharging and enjoying the natural beauty. In the evening we will return to Yerevan so that you can finish the day in a relaxed atmosphere.

Today you will have free time to enjoy your last moments in Yerevan. Stroll along the cozy streets of the city, visit local cafes or shop for souvenirs to take a piece of Armenia with you.

At the appointed time, we will arrange a transfer to the airport so that you can continue your journey comfortably and without worries.
