Reisroute
De boog is genoemd ter ere van de Armeense dichter Yeghishe Charents.
De heidense tempel Garni werd in de eerste eeuw na Christus gebouwd door de Armeense koning Trdat. De tempel Garni is het enige monument dat verbonden is met het tijdperk van heidendom en hellenisme, opgedragen aan de zonnegod Mithra.
De "Symfonie van Stenen" in de Garni-kloof verwijst naar een fascinerende geologische formatie nabij het dorp Garni in Armenië. Dit natuurwonder bestaat uit torenhoge basaltzuilen die uit de bodem van de kloof oprijzen en lijken op een grootse, symfonische opstelling van stenen pilaren.
Het klooster Geghard werd gebouwd in de 4e eeuw door The First Armenian Catholicos - Gregory the Illuminator. Aanvankelijk heette het Airivank (grotklooster) en werd toen omgedoopt tot Geghard, wat betekent. De naam van het klooster is afkomstig van de speer van de Romeinse soldaat die het lichaam van Jezus Christus doorstak.

Kristin and her driver took us - family of 4 - on a half-day trip. Very worthwhile, we can truly recommend it. Kristin is so kind and a walking encyclopaedia, you can ask her anything. A crash course in Armenian cultural history :) It felt luxurious that it qas just us, so we didnt have to rush. Great car too, very comfy and safe.
I used it with a plan without a guide (driver only). The driver (sorry, I forgot your name) was very good at English and was very kind to me, stopping on requests etc. along the way. The Garni Temple, Garni Valley and Gehard Monastery were all great. If you are going to Armenia, you should definitely see these! I had a great day thanks to you.

This wonder of nature is stunning beauty and most visited natural monuments in Armenia, located in Garni Gorge on the right bank of river Azat, this huge geological formation is the result of powerful volcanic eruptions that took place more than 125000 years ago, these basalt rock formations resembles organ musical instrument and amazing. There is an admission ticket to enter this place.
Dear MadanGopal, thank you for sharing your thoughts! We're so glad you enjoyed this incredible natural wonder. The basalt columns in Garni Gorge truly are a breathtaking sight, and it's amazing to think about their volcanic origin. We appreciate your visit and hope to welcome you back to explore more of Armenia’s beauty!
We were very happy with this trip! Our amazing guide was so kind, and answered all our questions during the day. She spoke fluent English, and gave us the perfect amount of facts for each place we visited. We were given the option to eat lavash that was made directly in front of us, which we of course said yes to! An absolutely amazing experience! After the tour, we asked if we could be driven to the Armenian Genocide Memorial Complex, instead of being returned back to our hotel. This was no problem, and we could check off another sightseeing spot 😊 Would highly recommend this tour!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled you had such a great experience and enjoyed the tour, the guide, and the lavash-making. It was our pleasure to accommodate your request — hope to see you again someday! 😊
Super nice tour with an amazing guide who has taught me a lot about the country and its history. The symphony of the Stones is incredible and a must-see
Dear Marta, thank you for sharing your experience! We're so glad to hear you enjoyed the tour and learned so much about the country and its history. The Symphony of the Stones truly is a special place, and we're happy it made such an impact on you. We hope to welcome you on another adventure soon!
amazing tour with an amazing guide. learnt loads and saw the most beautiful sights highly recommended
Dear Marta, we are so glad to hear you had such a great experience! Thanks for the kind words—means a lot. Hope to see you on another adventure soon!
We took the private tour without guide to garni and gerghard. We were already informed about not being able to visit symphony of stones due to weather conditions. Artur was an excellent driver and he navigated the snow filled roads smoothly and ensured we reached the two sites. However on the backend side of the tour, there is room for improvement as we didn’t get clear information whether our tour is entirely on or cancelled due to the weather.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We're thrilled to hear that Artur was able to navigate the snow-filled roads smoothly and make your visit to Garni and Geghard memorable. We truly appreciate your feedback regarding the communication around the tour, and we’ll certainly work on improving clarity around such details for future tours. Your comments help us enhance the experience for all of our guests. We hope to welcome you again soon for another adventure! Safe travels!
Artur was a great driver and shared a ton of insight about Armenia. Great way to experience some amazing sites!

Good solution to visit the main sites of Armenia in one day, mixing nature and history, with comfortable pick-up/drop-off at the hotel and private driver.
