Gio is very informative guide. Will recommend absolutely
Wonderful experience,very informative. Our guide Gio was super nice and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.
Today we did the Armenia tour with Tota (Nikolas) and it was honestly one of the nicest tours I've ever done. We visited 3 beautiful churches and he explained the history of each one in a way that was interesting & easy to follow. What stood out most was how much effort he made to talk to everyone in the group and help people get to know each other, which meant we all bonded really well throughout the day. He knew exactly when the group needed a break, was incredibly patient with questions, and felt less like a guide and more like a friend travelling with us. He is kind, funny, and genuinely great at what he does. The tour itself was a perfect introduction to this historic part of northern Armenia, with a wonderful mix of landscapes, viewpoints, history, culture, and food. One of the biggest highlights was lunch at a local Armenian household. As vegetarians we were a little worried about the food options, but it turned out there was plenty for us to eat and everything was delicious. Enjoying that meal with the stunning mountain views around us is a memory I'll definitely carry from this trip. I also tried pomegranate wine for the first time and can highly recommend it. A special thanks as well to Mr. B for the smooth and safe driving throughout the day. The border crossing was completely seamless too, just be prepared to be a little patient. Overall, this tour is so thoughtfully designed and beautifully balanced that it genuinely made me want to stay longer in Armenia. I've done plenty of tours over the years, but this one really stands out. 100% recommended! 🇦🇲❤️
Great experience, Tota is an awesome, knowledgeable guide and made the tour really fun.
Nicolas Totadze. An incredible man and a great tour guide - worthwhile experience seeing the beautiful sites of Armenia with a knowledgeable operator. Highly recommend.
It was a really good experience. Anna, our guide, was excellent. She was warm and knowledgeable and brought the monasteries to life. A day well spent.
Meeting information was good. Minibus was comfortable and driving was smooth. The itinerary was varied. Tota gave us a lot of interesting information and was a brilliant guide. Lunch was delicious.
A lovely day out. Tota was an incredible guide!
