Awesome storytelling and fascinating locations - The tourguide was so knowledgable and the locations itself were fascinating. Hasmik was our tourguode and she was able to tell the history of the country, culture, religion amd people in a very lifely manner. Both English amd Russian speaking groups were involved in her storytelling. She was clear in communicating what we could expect and the time managment.
The locations were a bit far apart but thanks to all the info we were never bored and it sparked conversation in the group as well. The pase in which the locations were visited was great amd we had plenty of time at each location.
In preparation the company was clear with the meeting location and provided us with botteled water.
All and all an awesome experience!

A very good tour - The tour was well organised, our tour guide had a lot of knowledge. The points of interest were wonderful. Our car broke down and needed to be fixed, but it was ready in approx. 20 minutes. We didn't visit the Paruyr Sevak house-museum. But on the way back to Yerevan, we had a short photostop to take some pictures of Mt. Ararat during the golden hour

No audioguide, Crazy driving - The night before the Tour, they said the guide was not feeling fine. We agreed for another tour with the same stops, I asked for audioguide at least and they agreed. They asked for a higher price, even though the tour was without guide: I had to contract the price. The "audioguide" was a recorded voice you could listen inside the car while moving from one Place to another. The driver drove crazy, and wasn't able to communicate with the group: we didn't know what we were going to visit. The tour had to last 10 hours, It took 12.
