Discovering Armenia – A Tour Facilitated by Jan Armenia Tours & Travels - Jan Armenia handled the travel arrangements for the visit. Booking and communication prior to the trip were managed appropriately. Any clarifications that were needed were addressed in a timely manner. During the tour, guidance was provided by Mr.Ara and Mr.David. Both individuals demonstrated familiarity with the local history and geography of Yerevan & other Armenia . Schedules were followed as planned, and the guides maintained a steady pace throughout the excursions.

Great Travel Agency - Booked this tour directly in office in Yeveran. Staff were all lovely. Tour went as planned however at the end I lost my bag with phone in it and wasn’t sure if in the car or had dropped in the street. Went to the office in a panic and the staff went straight in to action making phone calls to driver and then helped me use “Find my phone” to locate where it was (on road just where I got of car!). They went above and beyond and we were so grateful we didn’t just do a tour with those offering on the street but with a proper travel agent .

Interesting sites, beautiful & professional organizers/driver/tour guide - The tour was well-organized and the organisers, the driver and the tour guide were very professional and friendly. The sites are touristy, but for a reason: they are beautiful and something you don't see every day! The surrounding nature was astonishing. We are very happy that we booked this tour and can highly recommend it.
