Very well organized, interesting tour! - Tour to Garni temple and Geghard monastery including (optional) lunch was very satisfying. Transportation was excellent with everything that a traveller needs. Tour guide Arminia was also a top, very interesting story-teller, informative, answered and discussed all the questions relevant and non relevant to the main tour. Overall, I highly recommend travelling with this company. You'll get to see nice locations of Armenia and you'll have specialists smoothly organizing your entertainments.

Great Tour - Garni Temple is amazing! Don’t miss the natural stone structures at Symphony. And Geghard monastery is one of a kind. Our tour guide, Hasmik, was so informative and effortlessly provided the tour in two languages. Our driver was Marat and he was an expert on the roads. A very nice tour!

First time in Armenia - I did two tours with them both with Hasmik as the tour guide and Marat as the driver. Hasmik is very professional and kind, very informative trip because of her explanations. Marat the driver is also very kind, he lent me his vest because it was cold and rainy. It's just a bummer it was raining when I went but overall the trip was awesome. Be amazed by mountains and monasteries and some wine tasting.

Wonderful, Historic, and Educational! - Beautiful and moving experience in seeing some ancient structures and natural landscapes in Armenia. Hasmik was a wonderful guide who spoke English perfectly. Our driver, Murat, navigated through some rough terrain and was top notch.
I would encourage and highly recommend Yerani Travel to all.

Interesting tour from Yerevan to the surrounding area with a very good guide. - A very nice tour with a friendly and competent tour guide at all times. We received very well-founded information. Nice stop for a meal with an interesting demonstration of baking Armenian bread. The highlight of the tour for me was that our guide Hasmik sang us a very beautiful song in the monastery chapel.
Thank you very much for that.
