Great tour guide - My tour guide Anastasia was awesome, very knowledgeable and also concerned for my comfort and preferences. We saw a lot of beautiful things in one day and it was definitely worth it! In addition to what’s listed we also went to the Stone Symphony which was beautiful

Blessed for the Holy Week - Taking this tour was actually our main goal when we went to Armenia. It was the Holy Week holidays and we wanted to still observe Christian customs while we travel to a new place. The tour was well planned, with a short side trip to take photos of the spring blossoms. Our guide, Shushan, explained the significance of the places in the itinerary very well and answered our questions as much as she can. The tour helped us understand the Christian background of Armenia and we are happy that the tour went well.

perfectly organized tour with fantastic tour guide and very impressive sights - Big thank you to Yerani Travel for organizing this wonderful tour perfectly. Communication ahead of tour was clear and they where very responsive with my questions ahead (eg. if Symphony of Stones is included and Yes it was :) ) Sanasar our guide was fantastic, he was not only very knowledgable but also a really great and fun person who made everything possible to make it the best possible experience. Last but not least the sights were fantastic, my personal favorite where the so called Symphony of Stones close to Garni temple, absolutely astonishing natural wonder formations.

Very informative and fun - I did the Garni tour as well as the Echmiatsin tour and both were fantastic. The tour guides (tigran and alina) were very knowledgeable and nice. Clean cars and overall a great experience at a good price.
