Highlights
  • Khndzoresk Swinging Bridge - Khndzoresk is a unique place of interest, famous for its ancient caves, where people lived until the 1950s. Khndzoresk was considered a historical monument, which was preserved by the Soviet Union.
    Two banks of the gorge - Old and New Khndzoresk, are connected by a long swinging bridge, from which four churches of Khndzoresk and a spring of Nine children are visible. The bridge was built in 2012 on the initiative and sponsorship of local businessman Zhora Aleksanyan. The length of the bridge is 160 meters, height 63 meters, and weight - 14 tons. The bridge can simultaneously “service” about 700 people with an average weight.
  • Tatev Monastery - Tatev Monastery (IX-X century) is located in Syunik province. The monastery has a rich history. Tatev was not only a spiritual, but also an educational center. One of the best universities, where the humanities were studied, functioned here during the Middle Ages. The monastery buildings stand almost on the edge of a steep cliff, from where visitors can admire a stunning picturesque scenery of the gorge.

The path to the monastery was quite long and difficult years ago, by car it was necessary to get to the place along the mountainous road-serpentine. However, after the opening of Tatever ropeway (Wings of Tatev), the path to the attraction takes very short time. It also gives a lot of amazing unforgettable impressions. It should be mentioned that Wings of Tatev holds the record for the longest non-stop double track cable car.

  • Shaki Waterfall - Shaki waterfall is located on the Shaki River (a tributary of the Vorotan) in the north of Sisian city.
    Shaki waterfall is located in a deep gorge, rich in rocks and caves. Traces of human activity dating back to the Stone Age were found here. The Shaky waterfall is located in the Vorotan Gorge, 3 km northwest of Sisian, on the river Shaki. The height of the waterfall is 18 m.

  • Areni Wine Factory - People who appreciate good wines and are interested in the history of ancient architecture, will definitely fall in love with the tiny Armenian Areni village. The \

Syunik province is the historical jewel of Armenia and the tour was even more awesome, informative and exciting thanks to guide Yegor, who is an enthusiast of his job and expert of history.

Creating memories with OneWayTour - I must confess that this was an amazing experience for me as I have travelled with tour agency for the first time. I had a splendid day with my sister and friend. We had 4 destinations. Each of them was breathtaking. Our guide Qnarik was very careful, attentive, friendly and was always ready to answer any question. The bus was convenient. The only disadvantage was weather. Suddenly it started raining but due to proficiency of our guide and driver we didn’t feel it too much. Driver Gevorg was perfect and we managed to reach Tatev monastery even in fog . We succeeded to be in all 4 destinations. The music in the bus was very pleasant. Despite of the rain and fog which made our way a bit difficult we had a good day, take a lot of photos and enjoy ourselves fully. The price of the tour was worth my emotions and anticipation. The nature, the places, the group mates, guide and driver were all nice. I will, definitely, choose them again:)

Ani Leads the Way that One Way Leads - Superb - The overall trip was superbly organized by Ani and her team. They are a bunch of professionals, punctual and knowledgeable, Ani was simply superb. Cheerful, Bubbly, full of energy and joy; she led us to the destinations. From the Churches to the Swinging Bridge to the Winery, everything was superbly organized. Her explanations about the historical significances of the churches and the other great places in Tatev was brilliant. She is multi-talented, a brilliant singer too and despite having a headache, she kept her smile on and made sure that everyone in the touring party was comfortable. One Way Tour is a team of young people who are making these trips utmost fun. I thoroughly enjoyed every bit of the Tatev trip and would recommend that you book through them.

Good - 20 to 30 minutes are given to visit each place. This time is very less,And because of less time, we have to visit that place quickly.
