Smooth drive great view. - Arakel was a great driver. We arrived and departed without any issues and I took my time, no rush. We stopped at a local food stall for great views of the monastery aside grape fields and Mt Ararat in the bkg. The snack was made with wild herbs and leaves. A+

Comfortable and efficient - We booked a private tour to Khor Virap from Yerevan. We had a very good time, kind and attentive driver and we had plenty of time to visit and explore Khor Virap. Highly recommended, rather than renting a car yourself, given the traffic in Yerevan.

Wonderful time! - We had a wonderful time with our very knowledgeable guide, Raffi. He knew everything and anything we asked about and was very kind. We felt very comfortable with him. Avet’s driving was very safe and the car was very clean and new. They picked us up from our hotel which made the whole process very seamless. The actual tour was incredible! We saw Khor Virap from a different light and the view of Mt. Ararat was impressionable. Will definitely be doing it again!

Wonderful day in Khor Virap Monastery - We had an absolutely wonderful time with Meline in Khor Virap Monastery especially since it was my birthday! She went above and beyond to make the day extra special by surprising us with homemade dry fruits that she prepared herself—it was such a thoughtful and sweet gesture.

Meline was not only our guide, she helped us choosing the best Restaurants to test the delicious Armenian cuisine and enjoy the Armenian atmosphere as well.
Her lovely spirit and hospitality made us feel special.

Great Tour with a Great Tour Guide - Meline was a great tour guide. It's clear how passionate she is about her country and culture. She shared a lot about Armenia's history. Even during the drive there and back she made me feel welcome to ask questions (which I do a lot). She really made it a great experience and I am lucky to have had her with me. Avet was a great driver. I felt safe the whole time we were on the road. He was also very friendly. It was a very nice ride there and back. Overall, everything about the tour was a great experience.

Thanks to Nvard who made our stay unforgettable - Our stay in Yerevan ends with these last two days of excursions, Thursday to khor virap, beautiful Mount Ararat where our dear guide Nvard took the time to take beautiful photos and Friday we ended our stay in style with the discovery of the Etchmiadzin Cathedral.
Our experience with Hyur service was really perfect. We loved our driver Karen and our Guide Nvard.
