A perfect end to a two-week trip - After a two-week tour of Armenia, George and Azerbaijan, this was the best day of the trip. I learned much more about Yerevan today. Our guide Ioanna was wonderful. It was a small group. Questions answered fully and honestly. The food stop was refreshing. It was nice meeting my fellow travelers from Serbia, Portugal and France.
