Itinéraire
Pour avoir une idée précise de la culture, de l'architecture et de l'histoire de l'Arménie, une visite au monastère Tatev est l'un des must-have. L'église Saint-Paul-et-Pierre, construite en 906, est considérée comme l'une des meilleures structures de l'époque. L'église colossale se dresse sur le bord même de la gorge, au bord de l'abîme. Autrefois, l'université était l'un des endroits préférés des Arméniens, et quelques siècles plus tard, elle est même devenue un centre du mouvement de libération, dirigé par le plus grand héros du peuple arménien, Gareguine Njdeh.
Les Ailes de Tatev est le plus long tramway aérien réversible du monde, s’étendant sur 5,7 km au-dessus des superbes gorges de Vorotan dans le sud de l’Arménie. Ce trajet de 12 minutes offre une vue imprenable et relie les voyageurs au monastère Tatev du IXe siècle. Ce n'est pas seulement un téléphérique, c'est un voyage à travers l'histoire et la nature.
Un endroit où vous verrez une accumulation de rochers et vous croirez à peine qu'il y avait des quartiers résidentiels là-bas, et la population de Khndzoresk a atteint 10-15 mille au début du siècle dernier. Les gens ont vécu dans des maisons taillées dans le roc jusque dans les années 1950. Étant un village d'importance historique, Khndzoresk est souvent mentionné dans les pages de la lutte nationale. La tombe de Mkhitar Sparapet est ici, qui fut l'un des leaders du mouvement de libération au XVIIIe siècle. La totalité de ce village caverneux est complétée par le pont tournant construit au-dessus des gorges, pouvant atteindre 63 mètres de haut et 160 mètres de long. En passant, le nom est également lié à la profondeur de la gorge, qui était à l'origine Khordzoresk.
Shaki cascade complète le paysage indescriptible de la nature. La cascade de 16 mètres de haut raconte une belle légende, selon laquelle une jeune fille nommée Shaki est sauvée par ses eaux. Ce joyau de la nature dans le sud de l'Arménie est un endroit préféré pour les habitants et les touristes.
À la fin de la visite, nous visitons le centre de vinification dans le village d'Areni, où nous sommes hébergés par l'usine de vin Areni. Nos clients peuvent déguster différents types de vins arméniens, y compris ceux élaborés à partir de raisins Areni. Nous verrons également la cave, où les vins sont stockés, et à l'étage supérieur, il y a un joli café.

Its a long day but its worth it. You see beautiful rugged scenery unlike other parts of Armenia caves, waterfalls, mountain top monasteries dinner wine and the worlds longest single track cable car. Anna our guide was superb, informative, organized, cheerful and a real Gem. Highly recommended
We’re so happy you had such a great experience! Thank you for your kind words and trust in our services. We can’t wait to help you plan more amazing trips in the future.
I reserved a private tour with One Way Tours Armenia and paid $230. It was going to be a very long day going all the way to the south of the country so we decided to book it with a so called reliable company. When I booked I specially requested a car with AC and a driver who does not smoke in the car. they promised a comfortable vehicle with working air conditioning and a non-smoking driver. This was very important to us because we were going to be on the high way for more than 8–9 hours that day. Our pickup was scheduled for 9:00 AM, but the driver arrived 30 minutes late. As soon as we got into the car, he informed us that the air conditioning did not work properly and was not strong enough to cool the vehicle. As a result, we had to drive with all the windows open for about 9 hours. It was extremely hot, noisy, and uncomfortable. On two occasions, bees flew into the car and we had to remove them. To make matters worse, on the way back, the driver got a flat tire. He did not have a spare tire in the vehicle. Considering he was working for what presents itself as a professional tour company, it was shocking that his car had not been properly checked. It appears that the company does not adequately inspect the private vehicles used by its drivers and can send virtually anyone, despite promising customers a quality vehicle and professional service. After the flat tire incident, the driver became visibly stressed and, despite the company's promise of a non-smoking driver, he started smoking in the car. He also complained how the company does not pay them enough and they pay them less than a taxi driver. It seemed that he had become too comfortable around us and felt it was acceptable to do so. This was especially frustrating given that one of the reasons we booked with this company was their assurance that we would have a non-smoking driver. The entire experience was frustrating and unacceptable. When I complained afterward, the company responded by saying that I should have called them during the tour. However, by that point, we were approximately three hours away from their main hub, where they dispatch replacement vehicles. It was not realistic to wait several more hours for another car and lose a significant portion of our day. In the end, they refunded only $13 and simply apologized, saying they were unaware that the vehicle had these issues. That response was disappointing. I would not recommend booking tours with this company. If you are looking for transportation services, I would suggest considering other options, as the vehicle and driver provided to us did not meet the standards that were promised.
Thank you for sharing your experience. We are truly sorry that the vehicle and service provided during this private tour did not meet the standards you expected from us. We understand how important punctual pickup, a comfortable vehicle, working air conditioning, and a non-smoking driver are, especially for such a long full-day tour. The situations you described, including the delay, air conditioning issue, flat tire, and smoking in the vehicle, are not acceptable for our service standards. After reviewing this case, we took internal action, and the driver is no longer assigned to our tours. We are also strengthening our vehicle checks and driver requirements to prevent similar situations in the future. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and disappointment caused.
Spent a week in Armenia in June 2026 and decided to take daytrips with this company. This is one of the longest tours they have, starting early in the morning and getting back to Yerevan at night, so be prepared. The experience was incredible with the guide sharing her knowledge about the country and the regions we passed by. The sights are amazing with plenty of time to explore on our own as well as a guided tour of every place we stopped. Very professional company with great knowledge and pride of their country.
Thank you for sharing your positive feedback! We're thrilled to hear that you had a wonderful time during the tour. Your comments are very valuable to us.
Excellent tour of Tatev! It was a fantastic day with pleasant people and the professionalism of our guide Anna and our driver (I did forget the name as it is not a very common name for me). Very good explanations and information from our guide!
We truly appreciate your feedback! It’s wonderful to hear that you had such a positive experience with our services. We look forward to continuing to provide you with exceptional travel experiences in the future!
It was an unforgettable experience! Highly recommended trip, everything was taken care of down to the smallest details, starting with the water bottles provided before departure (which is not a given). Our guide Anahit was fantastic, kind, helpful, and patient. The best guide we have ever found so far! A special mention also goes to the driver Ruben. A long day, but one to remember!
Thank you for sharing your positive feedback. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed our guides. Your input is invaluable to us as we strive to improve our services.
We had an amazing experience on the Tatev, Khndzoresk, Shaki Waterfall, and Areni Winery tour. Our tour guide, Ani Muradyan, is truly the best of the best. She explained everything very clearly, took care of everyone throughout the entire tour, and was always kind, supportive, and professional. She is a very knowledgeable person, and her positive energy made the trip even more enjoyable. One of the best parts of this tour was that enough free time was given at each location, allowing us to explore the sites comfortably by ourselves without feeling rushed. Overall, this is a moderately difficult tour because the total travel time is around 16 hours, which can be tiring. My recommendation is to keep the next day free and take some rest instead of booking another trip immediately after this tour. The tour can be joined by people of all ages. However, older travelers or anyone who is not physically fit may want to avoid visiting the caves, as they can be challenging. The vehicle was not overcrowded, which was good, but the distance between seats was a bit short, so leg space could be improved for long journeys. Overall, this tour gives much more value than the price paid and is absolutely worth it. Highly recommended! If you visit Armenia, this is a must-do tour, especially with Ani Muradyan as your guide. She is truly excellent.
Your kind words are truly heartwarming. To know that we exceeded your expectations is the greatest reward for our team's hard work. We value your recommendation immensely and hope to have the opportunity to serve you again soon.

Highly recommended!
