Itinerario
L'Arco di Charents, prende il nome in onore del poeta armeno Eghishe Charents, che scrisse la migliore poesia, dedicata all'Armenia, piena di vero amore e orgoglio. Da questo luogo si apre una vista mozzafiato sull'Ararat, probabilmente la vista più mozzafiato della montagna biblica.
Tempio di Garni (77 d.C.) – è l'unico tempio pagano in piedi in tutta l'area post-sovietica. Il tempio si erge con grazia su un altopiano che domina la gola del fiume Azat. L'area circostante è di per sé incredibilmente bella. Il bagno greco-romano con il mosaico, composto da 30.000 pezzi di pietre naturali, così come le rovine del palazzo reale, ti porteranno al III secolo d.C.
La gola del Garni si trova proprio sotto l'omonimo villaggio. Lungo i lati della gola ci sono pareti di roccia di colonne di basalto ben conservate, scavate dal fiume Goght. Questa porzione della gola del Garni è tipicamente chiamata "Sinfonia delle pietre".
San Gegardo simboleggia la lancia con cui il centurione romano trafisse Gesù dopo la crocifissione. Successivamente la lancia era stata portata in Armenia e conservata nel monastero di Geghard per 5 secoli. La parte più sorprendente di questo complesso è la sua soluzione architettonica chiese forate nella solida roccia che sono state costruite secondo le regole dell'architettura armena. Il monastero di Geghard è incluso nella lista del patrimonio mondiale dell'UNESCO.
Il lago Sevan è uno dei più grandi laghi d'alta quota del mondo, giustamente chiamato la "Perla dell'Armenia".
Il monastero, fondato nel IX secolo, si trova su una piccola penisola, che offre una vista mozzafiato sul lago e sulle montagne circostanti.

The tour was nice and the places we visited were nice and I think we had the best tour guide in Armenia who was explaining in different languages all the details. Our guide “Rubina” was excellent in every level of detailing as she explained everything from architectural point of view and going through the history in details. I will always be grateful for Rubina for the wonderful guidance.

We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again for another unforgettable journey!
I greatly enjoyed my day trip to Garni/Geghard/Lake Sevan. Having a historian on board, Tigran, as our guide was a big plus. We have never felt we were left without any interesting comments/information/insights with him and he was humorous too. Edgar, our driver, made sure we safely arrived to all sites. The small size of our group was pretty welcome, the whole atmosphere was intimate. We did enjoyed the sites, although at some points I wished we had more free time to discover each venue. I was happy we were able to beat the crowds at Garni. Both that and Geghard is a must if you are in Armenia and don’t miss out on the mesmerising views of Lake Sevan from Sevanavank as well. Maybe more traditional Armenian cuisine offered on the menu would be appreciated (but that’s a recommendation for all tours operated by Yerani Travel). Overall, I highly recommend taking both this tour and tour company.
Dear Guest, Thank you for your kind words! It’s wonderful to hear that your day with us was enjoyable and memorable. We always strive to create experiences that leave our guests with lasting impressions, and we’re glad this tour could do that for you. We look forward to welcoming you back to explore more of Armenia’s beauty and culture in the future!
