This tour will introduce you to the exotic Pagan history of Armenia, and show the later development and spread of Christianity in the country. Garni Temple (77 A.D.) is the only standing heathen temple in the whole post-Soviet area. The temple stands on a high plateau overlooking the Azat river gorge. It is also home to the roman bath house with the mysterious mosaic, made out of 30,000 pieces of natural stones, as well as the ruins of the royal palace, dating back to 3rd century A.D.
The monastic complex of Geghard is another historical site included in this private tour. The complex is a representation of 13th Century Armenia, which is considered to be the Golden Age of the country’s architecture. The most astonishing part is that this church is cut out right into the solid rock.
Upon request you may have an opportunity to relax in a cozy local restaurant and taste some freshly baked lavash – traditional Armenian bread.
Approximately an hour’s drive from Yerevan, beautiful lake Sevan is situated, surrounded by a vast chain of mountains. After climbing a flight of stairs to the Sevan peninsula, an unforgettable panoramic view of the lake will open. Here on the top the monastery of Sevanavank is located. It was built by the princess Mariam to honor the life of her deceased husband in the 9th century. Sevanavank is also home to one of the most beautiful Amenaprkich (all savior) Khachkars of Armenia. This is one of the 13 rarest crosstones depicting Jesus.

This company is well setup and organized. Staff are punctual, and have a great and friendly service. Our guide was very knowledgeable and did her best to accommodate everyone, even though it was very hard to do with different needs and personalities, and language.

Einen geschäftlichen Aufenthalt konnten wir einen Tag privat verlängern und wollten einen kleinen Einblick von Armenien gewinnen. Wir wurden im Hotel abgeholt, die Uhrzeit konnten wir per Mail bei der Bestätigung selber bestimmen. Unter kundiger Führung wurden uns die drei Sehenswürdigkeiten erklärt. Die Reiseleiterin verfügte über viel Wissen. Unterwegs erzählte die Reiseleiterin, welche sehr gut englisch sprach, über Land und Leute. Auf unsere Wünsche und Fragen wurde eingegangen. Der Chauffeur fuhr sicher und angenehm. Unsere Erwartungen wurden mehr als erfüllt.

Very informative and comfortable private tour guided by knowledgeable Srbuhi and excellent driver Daniel. It was our second private tour organized by Galina from Yerani Travel. She was very kind and attentive; she make sure that our second tour was in a non-smoking car, as requested. It was very important for us, considering the duration of the tour. Our Itinerary was also very well-thought and suitable for my teenage niece and I. Thank you Yerani travel!

Ho effettuato con loro 3 viaggi di gruppo e uno privato e tutto è stato organizzato molto bene. I tour erano in inglese e russo, bravi gli autisti e molto competenti le guide. Offrono acqua e dolcetto a ogni tour. I tempi sono calcolati giusti per ogni sito. Prezzi ottimi, giusti per il servizio fornito.
Due osservazioni:
– i ristoranti possono essere migliorati
– eviterei la doppia lingua perché rallenta molto il tour. Chi deve stare ad aspettare si annoia un po’.
