About this experience
Join us for an unforgettable 2-day journey that takes you across the border to the stunning landscapes and rich culture of Armenia!
Take in the views over shimmering Lake Sevan, explore the majestic Haghpat Monastery nestled in the green hills, and feel the ancient energy at the Garni Pagan Temple. Step inside the rock-carved Geghard Monastery, and witness the dramatic basalt gorge known as the Symphony of Stones.
Wander the vibrant streets of Yerevan, enjoy a breath of fresh air in the forest resort town of Dilijan, and sit down to a home-cooked lunch with a local Armenian family—one of the most special parts of the journey.
Choose between a 2-day or 3-day tour. The 3-day option adds even more: the cliffside Noravank Monastery, spa town Jermuk with its waterfall and mineral springs, or the iconic Khor Virap with views of Mount Ararat. The tour is flexible and can be tailored to your pace and interests.
Don’t miss this chance to discover a whole new country in the Caucasus!
