Falling in love with Armenia - My tour with Hayek was absolutely spectacular! From start to finish, every moment was perfectly planned — we covered so many amazing places without ever feeling rushed. Hayek’s deep knowledge and passion for Armenia truly brought the country’s history and culture to life. Thanks to him, I completely fell in love with Armenia — its breathtaking nature, fascinating history, and the warmth of its people. Hayek helped me see the country for its pure beauty, far beyond what I expected. It was one of those rare experiences that stays with you forever.

See Spectacular Southern Armenia - A long day but so worthwhile. Fron the first monastery you see Mt Ararat and Turkey, the second is a lonely hermitage in a rocky canon and the third is reached after a spectacular climb (in the coach). Coming back down is a breath taking cable car ride. The guide, Hike, was very good in his explanations and got me on the cable car! Which was the amazing experience he said it would be. Our driver Leven was excellent on really challenging roads. The scenery was spectacular.

A perfect day trip from Yerevan - I had a great time in Southern Armenia with our guide, Anna. The tour was effectively organised and smoothly executed. The place we went for lunch was a nice addition to the day. The drive from and to Yerevan was also comfortable and safe.

Long but beautiful - Three very significant sites in.Armenan history. A long day but the drives went through some beautiful landscapes. It was a large group and the tour was conducted in two languages so things took longer than.optimal, but Marina, the guide, did a good job keeping the group on schedule and gave relevant information. Patak, the driver, drive smoothly and safely through some tricky roads.
