Beautiful cathedral

The most extraordinary in this visit are the songs of great beauty sung by a chorus of women. And then the arrival of the patriarch with his procession of dignitaries. Thank you to Hayk for his good timing and comments that have allowed me to understand many things.

Operator response

Very good - recommended

A very enjoyable tour. Our driver was Vazgen who was very friendly, courteous and a safe driver. He collected us on time and drove safely. Even though he wasn't our guide (only a driver), he provided us with lots of information on Armenia and the places we were visiting. Recommend!

Great day out

Excellent tour. Artur was a very knowledgeable guide who organised the day very well and gave us a lot of information about the history and culture of Armenia. He and the driver took good care of us, even bringing the jacket we forgot in the car back to our hotel.

I Had a Great Time!

I had a wonderful time on this tour so I have to write. I found the guide Anush enthusiastic and knowledgeable on the subject of religion and history, and the driver Artur was excellent. The tour was both informative and thorough, including some additional stops that would be of interest to people from another country. I am quite happy to recommended Land of Noah!
