Lernen Sie das Wesentliche Armeniens kennen, indem Sie die Essential Armenia-Tour machen. Besuchen Sie die wichtigsten und markantesten Orte des Landes. Wenn Sie nur wenig Zeit im Land haben, ist diese Tour genau das Richtige für Sie. Es ist eine großartige Möglichkeit, Armenien zu erkunden, indem Sie nicht nur die wichtigsten Sehenswürdigkeiten besuchen, sondern auch Einheimische treffen, in ihren Häusern essen und das ländliche Leben in Armenien kennenlernen. Unsere ausschließlich englischsprachigen Reiseführer werden Ihre Reise unvergesslich machen.

Erkunden Sie das erstaunliche, in einen Berg gehauene Geghard-Kloster und den ikonischen Garni-Tempel. Besuchen Sie eine einheimische Familie und erfahren Sie bei einem hausgemachten Mittagessen mehr über das Leben im Dorf Fantan. Lassen Sie sich von der schieren Anzahl der „Chatschkar“ (in Stein gehauene Grabsteine) auf dem Friedhof von Noratus überraschen und entdecken Sie die Geschichte dahinter. Genießen Sie die Ruhe des Sewansees vom malerischen Sewanawank aus, der auf einem Hügel mit Blick auf den See thront.

Reiseverlauf
Beginnen Sie Ihren Morgen damit, die Pracht der Azat-Schlucht und die atemberaubende Felsformation, die als Symphonie der Steine bekannt ist, zu bewundern. Die in Armenien einzigartigen symmetrischen Basaltsäulen der Symphonie der Steine sind ein großartiger Startpunkt der Tour. Genießen Sie die Geräusche der Natur, während der herrliche Fluss Azat die Symphonie in den Steinen erzeugt.
Der im Jahr 66 n. Chr. von König Tirdates I. erbaute Garni-Tempel ist der einzige noch existierende heidnische Tempel in Armenien. Der Tempel ist im typisch griechisch-römischen Stil gehalten und ähnelt vielen Tempeln in Griechenland und Italien. Erfahren Sie mehr über die Geschichte dieses einzigen Tempels, wie er in die Neuzeit gelangte und wie er die Christianisierung Armeniens überlebte. Bewundern Sie auf dem Tempelgelände das einzigartige Badehaus im römischen Stil und seine 2000 Jahre alten Originalmosaike.
Dieses UNESCO-Weltkulturerbe ist einzigartig. Das Kloster Geghard ist teilweise in den Berghang und die umgebenden Höhlen gehauen. Bewundern Sie exquisite Schnitzereien von Granatäpfeln, Trauben und Heiligen. Erfahren Sie mehr über die mystische Geschichte des Speers, der Jesus während der Kreuzigung verwundete, und wie er zum Kloster Geghard gelangte. Genießen Sie klassische armenische Snacks, bevor Sie zum Mittagessen aufbrechen.
Lernen Sie das ländliche Leben Armeniens und insbesondere das Leben im Dorf Fantan bei einem hausgemachten Mittagessen kennen. Das Wesen Armeniens kann man nicht verstehen, ohne das Haus einer typischen Familie zu betreten. Auf alle Ernährungsbedürfnisse kann eingegangen werden. Nach dem Mittagessen werden Kaffee/Tee und Desserts angeboten.
Lassen Sie sich von der schieren Anzahl der „Chatschkar“ (in Stein gemeißelte Grabsteine) auf dem Noratus-Friedhof überraschen und entdecken Sie die Geschichte dahinter. Lernen Sie die Bräuche und Legenden der Einheimischen kennen, indem Sie diesen mittelalterlichen Friedhof erkunden.
Dieses Kloster liegt auf dem Gipfel des Hügels der Sewan-Halbinsel und bietet die beste Aussicht auf den Sewansee. Das im 10. Jahrhundert erbaute Sewanwank war ein wichtiges kulturelles und spirituelles Jahrhundert für Armenien.
Genießen Sie die Ruhe des Sewansees von der Halbinsel Sewan aus. Der Sewansee ist einer der größten und höchstgelegenen Süßwasserseen der Welt. Im Sommer ist es nach Absprache mit der gesamten Gruppe auch möglich, im See zu schwimmen und sich abzukühlen.

We had a fantastic day, the sights were beautiful, and we learned so much about the sights and the history of the country. We also had a delicious, varied lunch served at a family home (which was a consistent highlight in all tours we joined Envoy).
Dear PC, Thank you so much for your kind review! We are delighted to hear that you had such a fantastic day exploring Armenia and enjoyed both the beautiful sights and the stories behind them. It's especially wonderful to know that the lunch at the family home was one of the highlights of your experience. Supporting local families and sharing authentic Armenian hospitality is something we truly value. Thank you for choosing to join multiple tours with us. It was a pleasure to have you, and we hope to welcome you back to Armenia—or to Georgia—for more memorable adventures in the future!
We went on a private tour with our friends. The car was very comfortable. I communicated with Marine about our reservation since November, we got all information in time and she also kept in touch before the departure (we were in two different hotels). Marine gave us lot of interesting facts not only about the sites we visited, but also about life and current affairs in Armenia. We'd like to appreciate home made lunch in family house in the countryside. It was very authentic experience and food was delicious. It gave us opportunity to talk about armenian cuisine. Without Envoy tours it would be very difficult to visit all the places in one day and for sure we wouldn't learn that much. The whole tour was perfect and we were happy to visit all these beautiful places with Marine.
Dear 944linb, Thank you very much for your detailed and thoughtful review. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the experience from the initial planning stages through to the tour itself. It’s especially rewarding to know that the cultural insights, the home-hosted lunch, and the overall journey made a meaningful impression. Creating seamless, well-rounded experiences like this is exactly what we aim for. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you again for another journey in the region.
Excellent tour to a selection of Armenian tourist attractions: Stone Symphony, Garni Temple, Geghard Monastery, Novatus, Lake Sevan and Sevansvank. Very good guide Aida and great food in a family home in Fantan
Dear Angel D, Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re so glad you enjoyed exploring Armenia’s highlights — from the Stone Symphony and Garni Temple to Lake Sevan and Sevanavank. It’s great to hear that Aida made your experience even more special with her guiding, and that you enjoyed the homemade lunch in Fantan — always a guest favorite! We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back soon to discover even more of Armenia with us.
My husband and me spent a week in Armenia this October. All our day tours and accommodation were organised by Envoy tours. We had a memorable trip thanks to Envoy's smooth organization and friendly guides. Thank you Zara, Aida and Nina

The tour was amazing! It was a long day and we covered a lot of ground. This region of Armenia is so beautiful and I learned a ton of history. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable, and lunch at a family's home was a real highlight. Highly recommend.
Dear aaronsG3995WU, Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the tour and found the day both enriching and memorable. That region of Armenia truly is stunning, and it’s wonderful that you appreciated the history and local hospitality — the family lunches are always a guest favorite! Your recommendation means a lot to us. We hope to welcome you back soon to explore even more of Armenia!
Well organised tour of the main sights around Yerevan with a knowledgable tour guide and a friendly bunch of fellow tourists. My second tour through Envoy Hostel - both excellent - benefitted from an exceptional lunch from a local family as part of the experience. Great value.
Dear blakelockb, Thank you for joining us again — we’re truly grateful for your continued trust!

Great tour and greater the guide! Saten was always clear, never boring, super friendly and enthusiastic. You can feel her passion in her job and her love in her county.
Dear Matteo, thank you so much for your right up of your tour experience with us. We certainly love our country and even more, love showing it off to our dear guests. Thanks for choosing envoy (more than once!) and for your 5 star rating. Hope to see you again soon!
The tour was very well organized: on time, right pace, and a safe driver. Our guide, Saten, was very knowledgeable about Armenia's history and passionate about it. I really liked her positive attitude. The tour included a homemade lunch in a local family's home, which was absolutely delicious.
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback. Your 5 star rating means a lot to us. Thank you for choosing Envoy Tours for your travel around our region - hope to see you again one day so make more travel memories together :) Greetings from our friendly team, especially Saten
This small group day tour was fantastic. The local guide was very knowledgeable and the number of stops was perfect and they were also different. The scenery in this part of Armenia is outstanding. The tour also included lunch at a local families home and we sat at their dining room table with so much home-made food. It was so delicious.
Dear Sasha, thank you so much for taking the time to write us a review of our tours (and hostel too! <3). We are simply thrilled to know you had a great time with us. We agree that the lunch experience is a highlight and we are glad you enjoyed the authenticity of it. We hope you have taken many wonderful (and tasty :) ) travel memories with you. Hope our paths cross again in your travels. Sending you warm regards from our Crew.
It was an amazing experience! Tour truly offers great value for money. Our guide was fluent in English and shared a lot of information and interesting facts about each location we visited. The small group size of just six people made the experience even more enjoyable. We were also fortunate that there weren't many tourists at the spots we visited, likely because the tour was on a Monday. One of the highlights was the homemade lunch at a local family's home, which added a wonderful, authentic touch to the trip. Highly recommended!
Thank you so much for your amazing review and wonderful comments. We are so glad you enjoyed our tours which are designed to go beyond the standard tours. We aim to provide cultural insights and authentic experiences through our village family hosted lunches (and create much needed employment and opportunity for cultural exchange and growth in the regions). Thank you for choosing envoy tours. We trust you have taken many wonderful travel memories with you and hope to see you again one day. Greetings from our Crew.
