Marvellous experience with Hyak our guide for a day and our driver Georgy. We found out amazing historical sites and were very impressed. Detailed , as we like, approach for every single point of our trip. Nice comfortable ride and a lot of interesting information made our day! Highly recommended! 10/10.

I only had a few days in Yerevan. Whilst I wanted to explore the city centre myself, I also wanted to go on an tour that would efficiently cover as many of the important sites that were a little further away from the city centre as possible in one day. To get a better understanding of the sites we visited, I chose the option to have a guide. Tamara (our guide) and Hovo (our driver) were both absolute professionals and made the day really special and memorable for us. Initially there was something wrong with our booking, but Tamara quickly solved the issue and got us back on track without any stress. She gave us some great information about the different sites that we would have been oblivious to if we had gone without a guide. We also had loads of questions for her about Armenia whilst we were travelling between the sites which she always enthusiastically answered. Tamara made sure that we explored the sites at our own pace, and we never felt rushed in any way. She also gave us a great recommendation for lunch - I had initially been planning to skip lunch, but I’m so glad I didn’t in the end! I would absolutely recommend the guided tour to anyone visiting Yerevan. It was a great way to efficiently cover a load of important sites and get some great information about them. Even if someone only had a day in Yerevan, I would recommend spending it doing this.
