We spent a very good day but the price was very high. We paid a lot only for the driver, the ropeway and the food weren't included. There wasn't even a bottle of water or food during the whole day, we waited for the evening to eat....It's a theft for tourits. We were expecting much more for the day. Anyway thanks to the driver, but I advice you to take the tour in another agency for a better price and many more services.

Very well planned and managed overnight private tour with Jan Armenia. Starting from Lilit, the tour coordinator to the amazing driver Artyom all went beyond my expectations. Lilit gave us a very fair deal, managed and monitored the whole trip and assaigned us a very friendly and knowledgable driver. Artyom acted like a “real” driver and a tour guide (eventhough I did not requested one). He was very, very knowledgable about every single village/town/stop and did not hesitate to inform us about all the details. We are very pleased and happy with the two day tour and I would definitely use them again for my future trips.
Dear Meghmik, thanks for choosing us and also thank you for taking your time to write the review. Hope to see you in Armenia again!
