Tatev Khndzoresk Shaki Waterval Areni Wijnmakerij Tour vanuit Jerevan

An interesting tour and our guide Ana was excellent, we had a great driver too! The bit I found best was not even part of the tour! You drive through a village in the Ararat valley called Surenavan, every single utility post has got a huge nest with storks inside it! I loved this ! ( they are not there all year around because they migrate, but you can see them in July) The driver will take you to Tatev for free but if you pay about £12 extra you can arrive by cable car which I enjoyed , it was spectacular. The cave settlement is down many steps with a wobbly ( but safe) bridge to cross. If you pay a very small sum extra a local will drive you back up the hill, and save you the steps! I was taken up in a very old Lada that sounded if it was going to explode,going up such a steep incline and I loved it. Definitely recommend this small extra payment. The waterfall is beautiful. Ana told us a lot about the country. You go to the food court to purchase food and drink.. Really low prices because used by the Armenians. A visit to the winery finished off the day nicely.

The tour is impeccable. The guide was very careful and it was a smooth journey. But the only seat left was at the back of the minibus, and I was sweating constantly with the people next to me, which honestly hurt. You should go to the meeting place early. It is also a good idea to bring sandwiches and other items as the food court is chaotic with stops along the way.

İt was great the energy and the vibe of the guide was amazing

One Way Tour is an excellent tour operator! The guide was friendly, helpful, and professional. The day trip was well organized, and everything was smooth and easy. Highly recommended 👌❤️

Its a long day but its worth it. You see beautiful rugged scenery unlike other parts of Armenia caves, waterfalls, mountain top monasteries dinner wine and the worlds longest single track cable car. Anna our guide was superb, informative, organized, cheerful and a real Gem. Highly recommended

I reserved a private tour with One Way Tours Armenia and paid $230. It was going to be a very long day going all the way to the south of the country so we decided to book it with a so called reliable company. When I booked I specially requested a car with AC and a driver who does not smoke in the car. they promised a comfortable vehicle with working air conditioning and a non-smoking driver. This was very important to us because we were going to be on the high way for more than 8–9 hours that day. Our pickup was scheduled for 9:00 AM, but the driver arrived 30 minutes late. As soon as we got into the car, he informed us that the air conditioning did not work properly and was not strong enough to cool the vehicle. As a result, we had to drive with all the windows open for about 9 hours. It was extremely hot, noisy, and uncomfortable. On two occasions, bees flew into the car and we had to remove them. To make matters worse, on the way back, the driver got a flat tire. He did not have a spare tire in the vehicle. Considering he was working for what presents itself as a professional tour company, it was shocking that his car had not been properly checked. It appears that the company does not adequately inspect the private vehicles used by its drivers and can send virtually anyone, despite promising customers a quality vehicle and professional service. After the flat tire incident, the driver became visibly stressed and, despite the company's promise of a non-smoking driver, he started smoking in the car. He also complained how the company does not pay them enough and they pay them less than a taxi driver. It seemed that he had become too comfortable around us and felt it was acceptable to do so. This was especially frustrating given that one of the reasons we booked with this company was their assurance that we would have a non-smoking driver. The entire experience was frustrating and unacceptable. When I complained afterward, the company responded by saying that I should have called them during the tour. However, by that point, we were approximately three hours away from their main hub, where they dispatch replacement vehicles. It was not realistic to wait several more hours for another car and lose a significant portion of our day. In the end, they refunded only $13 and simply apologized, saying they were unaware that the vehicle had these issues. That response was disappointing. I would not recommend booking tours with this company. If you are looking for transportation services, I would suggest considering other options, as the vehicle and driver provided to us did not meet the standards that were promised.

Spent a week in Armenia in June 2026 and decided to take daytrips with this company. This is one of the longest tours they have, starting early in the morning and getting back to Yerevan at night, so be prepared. The experience was incredible with the guide sharing her knowledge about the country and the regions we passed by. The sights are amazing with plenty of time to explore on our own as well as a guided tour of every place we stopped. Very professional company with great knowledge and pride of their country.

Excellent tour of Tatev! It was a fantastic day with pleasant people and the professionalism of our guide Anna and our driver (I did forget the name as it is not a very common name for me). Very good explanations and information from our guide!

It was an unforgettable experience! Highly recommended trip, everything was taken care of down to the smallest details, starting with the water bottles provided before departure (which is not a given). Our guide Anahit was fantastic, kind, helpful, and patient. The best guide we have ever found so far! A special mention also goes to the driver Ruben. A long day, but one to remember!

We had an amazing experience on the Tatev, Khndzoresk, Shaki Waterfall, and Areni Winery tour. Our tour guide, Ani Muradyan, is truly the best of the best. She explained everything very clearly, took care of everyone throughout the entire tour, and was always kind, supportive, and professional. She is a very knowledgeable person, and her positive energy made the trip even more enjoyable. One of the best parts of this tour was that enough free time was given at each location, allowing us to explore the sites comfortably by ourselves without feeling rushed. Overall, this is a moderately difficult tour because the total travel time is around 16 hours, which can be tiring. My recommendation is to keep the next day free and take some rest instead of booking another trip immediately after this tour. The tour can be joined by people of all ages. However, older travelers or anyone who is not physically fit may want to avoid visiting the caves, as they can be challenging. The vehicle was not overcrowded, which was good, but the distance between seats was a bit short, so leg space could be improved for long journeys. Overall, this tour gives much more value than the price paid and is absolutely worth it. Highly recommended! If you visit Armenia, this is a must-do tour, especially with Ani Muradyan as your guide. She is truly excellent.
