Itinéraire
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 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.
La ville de Tsaghkadzor (traduit par vallée des fleurs) est considérée comme l'une des stations d'hiver les plus populaires d'Arménie. C'est l'un des endroits de notre pays montagneux, où la beauté de la nature apparaît avec toute sa variété. Tsaghkadzor est situé dans la région de Kotayk, à 60 km au nord d'Erevan, sur le versant oriental de la montagne Teghenis, entouré de bois virginaux et de prairies alpines. Facultatif : temps libre ou balade en téléphérique
Le monastère de Kecharis se trouve dans la partie nord-ouest de Tsaghkadzor. Il a été construit en 11 - 13ème siècles. Le monastère se compose de quatre églises et d'un mausolée à moitié détruit de Grigorius Pahlavuni, qui a financé la construction du monastère.

Our trip around Armenia was absolutely unforgettable, and a huge part of that was thanks to the amazing team at Hyur Service. A heartfelt thank you to Naira, who organized everything behind the scenes. From our very first contact, she was incredibly helpful, responsive, and professional. Every detail of our itinerary was perfectly arranged, making our entire trip completely stress-free. Our deepest thanks also go to Anna and Levon, who made this journey truly exceptional. Anna was an outstanding guide—knowledgeable, passionate, kind, and attentive. She brought Armenia’s history, culture, and traditions to life, and her warmth and enthusiasm made every day even more enjoyable. Levon was equally wonderful. He is an excellent, careful, and safe driver, but above all, an incredibly kind, friendly, and thoughtful person. He always made us feel comfortable and welcome, and his calm professionalism gave us complete peace of mind throughout the trip. Together, Anna and Levon made the perfect team, and traveling with them was an absolute pleasure. We would also like to sincerely thank Hyur Service for providing such outstanding service and for having such exceptional people on their team.

Gayane, the guide, and the driver were perfect. Her explanations were understandable even for me, who does not speak English. Flawless organization. I am happy to have booked a tour for tomorrow as well with the Hiur service.

Tour by Hyur Service was organised very well. Driver Aro was a professional driver and made me feel comfortable. Guide Samvel explained everything with enthusiasm by getting into details where necessary for a first time visitor. His knowledge was amazing and answered all questions to my entire satisfaction.
We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed your experience! We’ll be more than happy to host you again anytime!
After such a wonderful experience with Rose and Arthur on our previous tour, we booked a second day with them to visit Garni Temple, Geghard Monastery and the Garni Canyon Symphony of Stones. Once again, they exceeded all expectations. Rose is an outstanding guide whose passion for Armenia is evident in everything she does. Her knowledge of the history, architecture, religion and culture surrounding each site was remarkable. At Garni Temple, she brought Armenia’s pre-Christian history to life, while at Geghard Monastery she provided fascinating insight into the country’s early Christian heritage and the significance of this extraordinary UNESCO World Heritage site. Her explanations were engaging, informative and delivered with genuine enthusiasm. The Symphony of Stones was another highlight of the day, and Rose ensured we understood both the geological significance and local stories associated with this unique natural wonder. Throughout the tour, she was attentive, friendly and always willing to answer questions, making the experience both educational and enjoyable. Arthur was, as always, an excellent driver. He was professional, punctual and courteous throughout the day, and we felt completely comfortable and safe on every part of the journey. The vehicle was spotless and comfortable, allowing us to relax and enjoy the spectacular scenery. What makes Rose and Arthur such a fantastic team is not only their professionalism, but also their warmth and genuine care for their guests. They consistently went above and beyond to ensure we had the best possible experience. Having now spent two full days touring Armenia with them, we can confidently say they have been one of the highlights of our trip. We would recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for an authentic, informative and memorable experience in Armenia. Thank you, Rose and Arthur, for another incredible day.
Thanks a million! We will be glad to host you whenever you decide to visit us again!
We really enjoyed our private tour of Garni, Geghard and Tsaghkadzor. We were a group of 6 from Italy. Our tour guide Meline and driver Sash were amazing, Meline explained a lot of history to us, and specifically she helped me with buying the best Gata, fruit lavash and choosing items to buy in Geghard. Meline was always ready to answer any questions we had and helped us resolve any issues that we faced. I really recommend them and I enjoyed booking with Hyur Service. Thank you! 😊

We had an incredible experience touring Geghard Monastery and the Symphony of Stones, learning all about Armenia’s ancient history while taking in spectacular scenery. Our guide Gayane was warm and knowledgeable, and our driver Samuel expertly handled roads meant for experts — he was awesome and made us feel completely safe. The day was full of great touches: delicious food at a local restaurant, fun food cart stops, and sweet dogs roaming around. A truly five-star experience. If you’re visiting Armenia, book this tour — you won’t regret it!
Thanks so much for your fantastic review! We would love to host you again whenever you return!
We went on a private tour with guide Samvel and driver Levon Karapetyan to visit Geghard Monastery, Garni Temple, and the Symphony of Stones. We thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience, starting with the smooth and safe drive provided by Levon, followed by an engaging and informative tour led by Samvel. Samvel is an excellent guide—highly knowledgeable, professional, and tactful. He shared many fascinating facts about the sites we visited, as well as Armenian history and its prominent historical figures. There was virtually no question that he could not answer with remarkable depth, insight, and consideration. Beyond the historical information, Samvel was also extremely helpful in showing us the best locations for photographs and helping us capture memorable pictures at the most scenic spots. I would highly recommend Samvel and Levon to anyone looking for a private tour in Armenia. Thank you both for a wonderful experience!
We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed your time with us! Hope to welcome you back to Armenia soon!
