Tatev Moneatary, Wings Of Tatev Ropeway - Tatev is my favorite place to visit in Armenia. I have been here multiple times, but it was my first time doing a guided tour with Hyur Service. It was a great experience to find out more of the history of the. Our tour guide Haik did a great job from start to finish, giving us all the history and information of Noravank Monastery and Tatev Monastery.

Great service - We had a fantastic 2-day customised private tour for the 6 of us with an overnight stay in Goris, and it was well organised and very enjoyable. Our guide Garnik and driver Levon were professional and took good care of us. The air-conditioned car was sparkling clean, comfortable and we were offered plenty of water. Breathtaking views, history, food - loved it all.

A very long but worthwhile day tour to Tatev - The guide Mr Karen, though young, was very knowledgeable and passionate about the tour. This is most likely the longest day tour offered by Hyur and requires a lot of patience and hard work on the part of the guide. Unfortunately, it came out to be a rainy day the day we visited, but was well managed all the same. Thanks.
