Grupperejse: Sevan-søen (Sevanavank), Dilijan (Goshavank, Haghartsin)
Beskrivelse
På denne 9-10-timers tur besøg Sevan-søen, perlen i dette bjergrige land og en af de største ferskvandssøer i højhøjde i Eurasien. Du vil også besøge Sevanavank, et klosterkompleks på Sevan-halvøen. I øjeblikket fungerer et religiøst seminar her, som ikke er let åbent for offentligheden, og halvøen kan kaldes det punkt, hvorfra hele Sevan-søen ses. Du vil derefter have et kort stop i Dilijan by, ellers omtalt som "Armenisk Schweiz" for sine fantastiske naturskove. Byen er en del af Dilijan National Park. Næste stop er Haghartsin, et kloster fra det 10. århundrede, som for nylig er blevet renoveret ved donation af sheik Dr. Sultan Bin Mohammad Al Qassimi, herskeren i Sharjah, som var imponeret over klostret, da han besøgte det. Goshavank er det sidste stop omgivet af grønne territorier.

start- og slutpunkt
Fascinerende og "perlen" af bjergrige Armenien er søen Sevan, som er en af verdens største høj højde ferskvandsøer. Det er omkring 1900 m over havets overflade. Søen er af vulkansk oprindelse og er omgivet af bjerge på 3000 m og højere. Det smukke landskab og det krystalklare vand er gode forudsætninger for fremragende hvile. Søen er også berømt for sin halvø og middelalderlige kirke kompleks, bygget i 874.
En vidunderlig scene åbner i den nordvestlige del af Sevan-søen, hvor halvøen tårner over søens gennemsigtige overflade. Sevanavank kloster blev bygget på halvøen i 874 ved ordre af kong Ashot Bagratunis datter - prinsesse Mariam. Silhuetten af kirkerne mod baggrunden af den turkise sø og blå himmel kaster uforklarligt indtryk på besøgende.
Goshavank blev grundlagt af den berømte middelalderlige videnskabsmand, fabulisten Mkhitar Gosh. Komplekset består af flere religiøse og sekulære bygninger. Den uovertruffen khachkar, placeret foran den en-navede basilika, blev skabt af den dygtige mester Poghos i 1291. Goshavank var engang en af de mest berømte religiøse og kulturelle centre i middelalderlige Armenien.
Haghartsin kloster, der ligger i skovene i Tavush regionen, repræsenterer et ubeskriveligt eksempel på blanding af natur med arkitektur. Det blev grundlagt i det 10. - 11. århundrede, men nye bygninger blev tilføjet i det 12. - 13. århundrede. Nu består den af St. Grigor, St. Astvatsatsin (Hellige Guds Moder), St. Stepanos kirker og nogle andre bygninger. Refektoriet, på grund af sin dygtige arkitektoniske sammensætning, er af stor interesse. I nærheden af Haghartsin der plejede at vokse et kæmpe egetræ, næsten i klosterets alder, fuldender hele scenen. Desværre er kun en lille del af hullet tilbage til i dag, men det er stadig af stor interesse blandt besøgende, og bevarer traditionen, ifølge hvilken, når man gør et ønske og samtidig formår at passere gennem træet (hullet), det forventes at blive opfyldt i den nærmeste fremtid.

Merci pour votre chaleureux retour! Nous avons hâte de vous revoir lors de votre prochaine visite en Arménie.
A long tour outside the city starting from Yerevan, visiting several monasteries and towns in an environment different from other regions of Armenia. Recommended in summer for the cooler climate found in these areas.
Siamo davvero felici per il feedback positivo! Saremo lieti di darvi il benvenuto di nuovo in Armenia!

Took part in a day trip. Everything was very nice - the work and accompanying guide Ike and the work of driver Spartacus.
Спасибо большое за отзыв! Мы будем рады вновь встретить Вас в Армении!
The tour may have been much better suited for Russian speakers. Combining Russian and English in the same tour was not a good decision. Typically, the guide would spend about 10 minutes speaking in Russian and only 2–3 minutes in English, making English-speaking guests feel like an afterthought. Some of the main issues we experienced were: - Instructions and meeting points were often unclear. - We were traveling with a senior and a child, so we naturally moved more slowly and were frequently at the back of the group. - The guide rarely waited for the entire group to gather or ensured that everyone had heard the directions. - At one stop, we lost the group completely, which was stressful. - The guide did not seem mindful of the different needs of guests. - Several other English-speaking participants were also visibly frustrated by the confusion and lack of communication. - At most stops, the Russian explanation took up about three-quarters of the time, leaving English speakers waiting around aimlessly until the guide returned to give a very brief explanation before everyone had to rush back to the bus. The lunch was mediocre at best. In addition: - It was not clearly explained that the cake was an extra charge. - We were traveling with a child, and none of the food options were suitable for her. - When we chose not to order food for her, the guide seemed offended, which made the experience even more uncomfortable. Overall, this was not a pleasant experience. I would not recommend this tour to English-speaking travelers, especially families with children or seniors.
Thanks to our guide Aik and our driver Aro for this good tour. I really like, how Aik told about Armenia history and about places. Lake Sevan is astonishing and road to Dilijan with monasteries are beautiful. For me also been interested to hear Armenian history. It’s really old country. I highly recommend this tour!
