タテウ修道院へ1泊2日

Did 2 tours with them, one is Garni-Geghard and Lake Sevan day tour and the one is 2 days 1 night to South Armenia (Khor Virap -Areni winery -Shake-Tatev ( night in Goris ), Khndzoresk swinging bridge-Noravank -Yerevan) Had limited time there and Nvard (the guide) was very resourceful to accommodate my schedule and find traveling partners to help lower my traveling cost. Nvard is a very knowledgeable guide with deep knowledge of each place, giving lots of background information on the places we visit. She is also very mindful of the weather conditions and make changes to itinerary so that we can tour the place in the best weather conditions. Well trusted, honest, friendly and knowledgeable guide. Highly recommended to use their guide services when in Armenia.

This was a superb tour. I'd class it as a wondeful two day experience of part of a beautiful country and its people. To us, it became less of a tour and more of a trip with two friends, guide Nvard and driver Tigran. We were lucky with the weather and first stop was a beautiful blue sky view of Mt Ararat. Coming from Australia, this was a great sight for us, with the Khor Virap monastery perfectly placed and interesting. The Armenian countryside was lovely and we moved on to an easily accessible and beautiful Jemruk waterfall. We could have stayed there all day and enjoyed the peace and sounds of water. It seemed to us that there was something interesting around every corner and the nxt stop was the Noravank Monastery, in a stunning red rock setting. We loved parts of the quiet roads, with large flocks of sheep being tended by shepherds on horseback slowing us down. Overnight at Goris and a lovely, new restaurant overlooking the town. As an added bonus,the following morning we braved the suspension bridge to a wonderful cave 'city' in lovely surroundings, before experiencinmg the 'Wings of Tatev', the longest cable car ride in the world. Very enjoyable, along with the Tatev Monastery. What we saw was wonderful, with lovely, friendly people everywhere we went. We thought that many of the things we saw in Armenia would be tourist hotspots if in middle Europe, but we were able to enjoy them in relative peace. What makes a tour successful or otherwise is often the guide and here we struck the jackpot. We can't speak highly enough of Nvad, who was knowledgable, justly loved her country, but most importantly treated us as her guests for the two days. We laughed a lot, learnt a lot and had fun. Book this trip, it was one of the best ever.
