What to expectGet ready to unleash your inner self and come in touch with this incredible group tour. This travel Armenia package will take you from the sights of Paganism to Christianity. We will cover all the beautiful religious impressions in Armenia. The complete journey has locations to visit that you will never forget. Let’s know about each exciting spot on this group tour package.
The first place on the itinerary is near the arch of Yeghishe Charents, a famous Armenian poet and activist. Moving forward, the areas we will cover include the Pagan temple of Garni and Geghard monastery. Garni temple is the only Pagan temple in the post-Soviet region. It is one of the higher levels in front of the Azat river gorge and was the summer accommodation for the former Armenian Kings. Today, the ruins present here will amaze you, and surprisingly it was also the home of a Roman bath house.
In contrast, Geghard Monastery is an excellent place that shows 13th-century Armenia. The architecture of this golden time is worth visiting. Here is some information about St. Geghard; it represents the well-known lance used in the Roman Centurion for piercing Jesus’ post-crucifixion. Moreover, this place got a place in UNESCO World Heritage.
Armenia travel continues to visit “Lavash” baking, tasting, and traditional lunch that you can purchase in advance with special price. Surprisingly, this eating spot has more contribution from women than men in baking the bread.
Lastly, we want to tell you how we will make it a unique experience for you. Each of our group tours carries the travelers in minibuses. Besides, the cost of every ticket to enter the locations, English speaking guide service are included in the tour price. So, enjoy this tour and Book Now the group tour.

i went with 3 of my friends from Italy on 2 separate tours, our tour guide Sam was simply the best: so knowledgeable and interesting to listen to, funny and easy to get along with, plus he knew when to stop talking and let us enjoy the beautiful spots we visited by ourselves. really 10/10 positive experience and, again, thanks to Sam for being such an awesome guide.

Had a great time during our tour with yerani travel to Garni temple and Geghard monastery. The tour gives the widest overview of Armenia, going from ancient to medieval times (and thebackground to the most recent events) while passing fantastic landscapes. Further stops for pictures or quick breaks were also included. That the Monastery visit happened during mess was happening surely added to experience.
Our guide Gayane was very knowledgeable and patient, giving detailed answers during the tour and afterwards regarding other activities. She even sang to highlight the accustics of the church! Also our driver was going fast but safe – not as crazy as minibusdrivers in this regions often do. Tour bus was comfortable, offering wifi and cold bottled water. Further stops for pictures or quick breaks were also included. Highly recommend this tour.

Очень запоминающаяся и разнообразная поездка с красивыми видами. Внутреннее аскетичное убранство церквей производит сильное впечатление. Чувствуется, что люди приходили сюда и молились много веков назад. Потрясающие виды на окружающие горы. Гид Жасмин вела экскурсию с большим чувством, не просто предоставляла информацию, а прямо чувствовалось, что рассказывает от души, что сама любит эти места. Водитель Карен очень аккуратно вёл машину. Думаю, что буду долго вспоминать то впечатление, которое возникает, когда входишь в тёмную церковь с солнечной улицы и слышишь эхо своих шагов и голосов
