Amazing! - We toured Amberd with Manya and Maverick and couldn’t be happier. I’m Armenian and was the only Armenian in our tour and was so pleased to see so many of other cultures joining me to learn about mine. It was a great mix of humor, history, and learning about a culture so rich.

Excellent trip to the highlands - Wonderful tour! I enjoyed the entire time on the trip, the guides and the driver were very informative and kind. The places were amazing and beautiful as well. The only major difficulty we ran into was the crowded roads for getting into Saghmosavank, but not much could have been done about that (there were lots of weddings going on).

Loading... - Great locations and great guide! Learned so much. The destinations were very fascinating, each in their own way. Unfortunately, my shoes got covered in mud towards the end. lmlmlm

Everything was great from the beginning of the tour to the end! I advise you. - Wonderful Vacation Package , decided to take it because other major attractions are easier to reach by car (Gegard, Garney, Stone Symphony, etc.) Riding in a comfortable air-conditioned minibus , the ride was quiet without twitching thanks to driver Araik (hopefully spelled correctly). We liked Suzanne's tour guide, she said interestingly, without any extra water. Scones, cold water, and even umbrellas since it rained. I recommend this tour company and the Vacation Package!
