Khor Virap at the beginning of spring - The private tour that I made with a very courteous and spontaneous guide having excellent knowledge of English as well as culture-specific local knowledge, I will always keep in good memory!
On the way to Khot Virap he showed me the best places to take beautiful pictures, everything without hurry - a very relaxing experience! Very recommendable!

Great views of Mt. Ararat - Very nice and polite guide with a comfortable and reliable car. Good information and knowledge about the visited site in perfect English. I was lucky to go there with good weather so I got some incredible views of Mt. Ararat. Totally worth it.

Very nice - That is amazing place, located on the very edge of the Armenian-Turkish border (at least 200 meters and there is Turkey) - old Monastery with its legends and history, placed on the slope of the hills located in the huge Ararat Valley. Main fantastic view around is the Ararat Mountain. Fantastic and always with plenty of ice on the top. Looks very very beautiful. Many photos even cannot reflect the reality. Inside the monastery is nice and old, placed on top of ancient caves where St. Grigor was sitiing for many years. Mineral water spring is located there with warm slightly sparking water. Interesting. YOu will enjoy every minute there.
For travellers there is a big parking at the bottom of the hill, some shops and souvenirs. Trully recommend.

Probably the best private tour I've ever had - Sergey was an excellent private tour guide! Total value for money! He was super helpful and provided so many valuable tips to have a wonderful holiday. But more importantly, he was willing to answer every question I had during the entire tour, and I must say that my understanding of Armenian history & culture is a lot better now thanks to Sergey. His friendly demeanor mad the overall trip and experience quite memorable. I'd certainly recommend this tour to everyone.

Well spent - I love everything about Armenia most especially to our tour guide, Sergey. He made it more memorable, we found a friend in him :)
Khor Virap was my favorite, got engaged facing to the beautiful mountain of Ararat.
Love every bit of Armenia, must go back for sure!

Tour to Khor Virap - Nice driver, good car, on time. So far 5 stars.
The deduction I give for the following. The tour is marketed as "with English speaking driver/guide". The driver I had spoke very little English and as I don't speak Armenian or Russian communication was very difficult and no information was given (what I expected based on the previous reviews).
