Point d'observation
Le temple Garni, qui domine un cap triangulaire, est l'exemple unique de la culture païenne en Arménie. C'est un mélange de styles gréco-romain et arménien. Le roi Trdat Le Premier ordonna la construction du temple au premier siècle de notre ère et le dédia au Dieu du Soleil. Après avoir adopté le christianisme en 301, le temple païen perdit de son importance et la forteresse de Garni devint la résidence d'été des rois. De nos jours, les ruines du palais royal et la salle de bain avec une superbe œuvre en mosaïque peuvent être trouvées près du temple. Le client aura la chance de participer à la procédure de cuisson Lavash à proximité.
Dans le canyon de Garni, on peut explorer de superbes monuments géologiques, représentés par des basaltes colonnaires, qui sont le résultat de coulées de lave. Les masses de basalte sont brisées en colonnes polyédriques, qui, en raison de leur régularité de forme, ont gagné le nom d'« orgue basaltique ».
Le monastère de Geghard est le chef-d'œuvre indépassable de l'architecture arménienne du XIIIe siècle. Certaines des églises du complexe sont taillées de main de maître dans un énorme rocher. Dès le début, le complexe s'appelait Ayrivank (monastère rupestre), puis il a été renommé Geghard (lance) car la lance, utilisée par le soldat romain pour piquer du côté de Jésus-Christ, avait été conservée dans ce monastère pendant de nombreux siècles. Grâce à sa construction, Geghardavank est le meilleur endroit pour chanter des chants spirituels. Le complexe est riche de subtils embellissements sculpturaux et de nombreux khatchkars (croix de pierre) saisissants. Le site est inscrit sur la liste du patrimoine culturel mondial de l'UNESCO.

Arpi our tour guide and khachik our driver were both excellent. Thoroughly enjoyed the tour, would highly recommend.
Just finished the Garni/Geghard/Symphony of Stones/Lavash baking tour with Hyur tours. It was excellent, and packed a lot of great locations into just half a day. The Geghard monastery was my favorite, followed by the Lavash baking. Our driver (David) and your guide (Sam) were both great, and made the experience inviting, well organized, and safe. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Yerevan with a half day to spare.
Great tour, except driver (David) and guide (Sam). Highly recommend it!
Went on the tour with the guide Sam and our driver was David. Sam was very knowledgeable and explained the history and the significances of the location we visited in a clear manner. David got us to each location in a very timely manner, without any issues on the road.
We had a great experience with Hyur Service. Our driver, Aro, was very professional, kind, punctual, and helpful throughout the trip. He drove safely, made us feel comfortable, and gave us a very pleasant experience. Everything was well organized and smooth from start to finish. I highly recommend Hyur Service, especially if you are lucky to have Aro as your driver.
Thank you for the warm words! Thank you for choosing our company! Hope to have another chance to host you!
We had a wonderful day visiting Garni, Geghard, Symphony of Stones and the lavash baking masterclass. Hayk was an excellent guide who shared so many interesting facts and stories, making the tour both educational and enjoyable. It was also a real highlight to hear him play the duduk. A big thank you to our driver, David, for the safe and comfortable ride. Highly recommended!
We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed your time with us! Hope to welcome you back to Armenia soon!
Went with colleagues in June 2026 with this company on several excursions with guide David. We really want to note incredible kindness, hospitality, excellent travel organization, showed very beautiful places, told a lot of interesting facts and events. Special thanks to guide David for his wonderful stories, kindness and care! It's a very nice and warm experience, thank you! Definitely recommend this company, you can safely go with them, you won't regret!
Мы очень ценим Ваши теплые слова! Ждем Вас снова в Армении!
All tours with Hyur are good and well organized. This is a short tour. Garni temple is unique in Armenia and the Symphony of Stones was very nice too. If you have little time in Yerevan, this tour should be on your priority list as you get to see a bit of everything: Lavash making (which is quite an experience) - with tasting, Garni unique temple, the rock formation at the Symphony of Stones, a monastery and the Arch of Charents from where the view is fantastic on a clear day. Our guide on this day was Marina who is very good.
The nice experience of our customers is our priority! Thank you for your highest mark!
Gayane was a wonderful guide and had great knowledge of the sites we visited. Ashot the driver got us to our destinations safe and sound.
It’s so nice to hear that you were satisfied with our services. You can surely rely on our company in future as well!
My family took a private tour with Sasha and Rose to Garni, Geghard, and symphony of stones. We also stopped at the Mt. Ararat viewing point, which was stunning. It was such a perfect day! Their hospitality had no end, and took every caution to help us with our baby who was along for the ride. Rose has an in depth knowledge of all things Armenia, and I walked away having learned so much. Sasha was an excellent driver, so funny, and very helpful. They also took us to a beautiful garden restaurant Abelyan House for lunch. I would recommended Hyur to anyone looking for a guide to Armenia, and especially ask for Rose and Sasha! You will love it I have no doubt
Thanks so much for your fantastic review! We would love to host you again whenever you return!
