Fantastic tour with excellent guide - Very well organised tour! The meeting point was very easy to find. In total we were 6 people on this tour, so it was indeed a small group and we all got to know each other. Our guide Zezva did an excellent job! Super friendly and chilled. I didn't feel rushed and there was no specific time at each stop, instead we got the time we needed. Zezva walked around with us and gave us lot of information. The lunch was in a local house with a stunning garden and amazing views. The food was delicious and there was plenty of it! It was nice that also Zezva and the driver had lunch with us tourists. This added to the friendly atmosphere I felt throughout the tour. Thank you so much for an unforgettable journey to Armenia!

Definitely do this tour! - Really great tour. We’ve done a couple others that we’ve £20/30 and we felt like this one was much higher quality. Zezva gave us the freedom to enjoy the places without saying a time limit and he came in with us to give as much information as possible.

Pleasant Day Trip to Historic Sites in Northern Armenia - Tour guide Zezve was always eager to answer any questions we three travellers had, to elaborate on the history of the region and to show us interesting views in this scenic part of Armenia. The group was small enough to allow a personalized approach to this tour and made it feel quite cosy.

Tour to Armenia - Pros and Cons - PROS: It was an awesome tour, everything was well organized. The tour guide was very knowledgeable on the subject and was also extremely respectful and caring, which I really value. The places we visited were very beautiful and interesting. CONS: - The food that the Armenian family prepared was not that great and if you're vegan, the options are very limited and the things that we vegans can eat there, are not so tasty. - The driver smoked in the car during the return trip. It was really awful and it made me feel dizzy and sick. Despite the cons, the tour was good. It was a great experience overall.
