Amazing trip - dont let the duration turn you off - An utterly amazing trip and well worth the money. We started early in the fog which lasted most of the trip! We missed Shaki (the waterfall) because of the fog, But we did see Mount Ararat (various views on the way out and the way back), we did go on the cablecar ride (still in fog!) and we did love the monasteries and all the history. Our last stop at Noravank was outstanding.
So much history!
The roads on this trip were great so dont let the long hours turn you off what was our best trip in Armenia.
Remember that the driver is only that, not a guide. So read up on the places you will stop and check with the driver that you are at a certain place.
We had a bad experience with our first driver smelling of smoke and no English language so we enquired about this before the trip and were ensured we would okay.
Our driver was a beautiful man, great driver and very approachable. I'm sorry that I cannot remember his name.
Perhaps a tip for this company would be to have the name of the driver in the car so passengers could see it and use the correct spelling in reviews.

Great sites and local wines - Our guide Garnik was great and very knowledgeable. He even took us to an extra wine tasting by a local where we were able to buy fruits, wine, and sweets.

Private tour for 10 in a minivan with Hyur Service and Aro - A private tour for 10 of us from Yerevan city to Tatev,with stops at Shaki waterfall and Hin Areni wineyard was professionally arranged. Aro our driver and friendly guide was on time, drove safely and handled us with patience and smile .
Water is provided in the vehicle and we were allowed to make couple or quick stops at scenic spots along the drive
You get excellent professional service for the money you pay.

Sergey is the best - I found Sergey from TripAdvisor and FB page “Private TOURS in Armenia”. And I am glad I found him. He is a safe driver, we felt safe throughout the trip. He not only drives you around but because he is a local, he gives you a detailed history behind everything we saw and is a great tour guide as well. He also cracks jokes, and keeps the trip lively. His car is spacious, I travelled with another family friend so we were 6 of us in total. There was WiFi and water throughout the trip. I had a specific itinerary in mind and he customized as per our requirement with helpful suggestions at a very reasonable price. For a vegetarian family, he found us restaurants that served vegetarian home cooked meals.
Overall our trip to Armenia was wonderful. Thanks to Sergey.

Good driver but didn t speak English - All 3 monasteries very beautiful and different.
Waterfall very nice. Excellent driver and good car.
We arrived at the wine tasting at 10:15am. It was breakfast time so we did not taste anything!!!
Could not see anything from the teleferic because of rain and total white fog.
The driver didn t speak English at all (in a 12 hour tour!!!). Another driver offered our driver to call him everytime we had a question. We think it is very dangerous to use the phone and drive at the same time, so we declined.
Bringing your own lunch is a good idea.

Far from what promised - The transportation was not complete as claimed: we had to pay the tickets to Tatev monastery ourselves (almost 60$). There had been no wine tasting ecc at all. The driver didn’t know a world of English, nor Russian, which made everything more difficult.
Moreover, Viator costume service didn’t even try to refund the tickets or apologize for the poor experience.
Unlucky, since the landscapes were amazing.
