Very beautiful places - We had a private tour in Italian with guide Nvard and driver Hovik. We went for the whole day to the Khor Virap monastery, the Areni-1 cave and the Noravank monastery. An amazing trip, wonderful places, a professional guide and driver who constantly told us something interesting and took care of us and our children. Thanks to them, we were able to enjoy the wonderful country of Armenia!

Excellent tours - We had 2 tours with hyur. Our first guide was Eliza. She is perfect. Her English is excellent and she treated us like friends. On the second tour we had Sam and liked him a lot too. He is very polite and attentive. Our driver Arthur was driving carefully and safe. I hope to visit Armenia again and one more time to do tours with these professional guides and their office.

Unforgettable day ! - It was an unforgettable day, we spent 13 hours to do this tour. The weather wasnt that great when we started to drive from Yerevan but lucky it turned to a beautiful sunny day when we arrived Khor Virap. Amazing view from here. We enjoyed a lot at Noravak and Jermuk as well. We loved how beautiful they were. Last stop at the wine factory. We tried couple of wines and end up get a bottle to bring home. We accompanied by Maria and Karen from Hyur service. We delighted to have them with us. Both of them were nice, friendly and not in a rush at all, so we had plenty time to enjoy the places we visited. Maria was lovely, she was very informative and knowledgable. And Karen was a good driver, drive us carefully. They two were very kind to our boy. Happy time as long as we remember :) Next time we come back to Armenia, we will choose Hyur Service again as they really look after us.

Beautiful places and a fantastic tour guide - I had a wonderful tour with Arpine Khalatyan. Khor Virap and the views towards Mount Ararat was stunning and the landscapes we encountered towards Noravank and Jermuk were beautiful. Arpine did a fantastic job at explaining the history and meaning behind all of the places we visited. Her knowledge and the places visited during the tour were the highlight of our trip. If you have just one or two days in Armenia then this tour should be your priority!
