Unique tours to Armenia

Seven days in Armenia offer time not simply to see the country’s most famous landmarks, but to feel its changing landscapes, flavors and atmosphere. From lively Yerevan and the forests of Dilijan to the blue waters of Lake Sevan, the red cliffs of Vayots Dzor and the dramatic mountains of Syunik, every part of the journey reveals a different Armenia.

The route leads to Khor Virap, with Mount Ararat rising behind the monastery, through Noravank and the wine country of Areni, and further south to Goris, Khndzoresk and Tatev. The journey across the Vorotan Gorge on the famous Wings of Tatev cable car is one of the highlights of the tour.

There is also time to discover Garni and Geghard, walk through the Symphony of Stones, taste Armenian wine and brandy, enjoy traditional cuisine and freshly baked lavash, explore the markets and museums of Yerevan, and visit Echmiadzin and Zvartnots.

A week in Armenia brings together ancient history and everyday life, mountains and forests, wine and food, quiet monasteries and the energy of Yerevan — a journey that gives a real sense of the country rather than simply a collection of sightseeing stops.

Sometimes, to discover one of the most beautiful sides of Armenia, all it takes is leaving the paved road behind and heading high into the mountains. That is exactly what our Jeep Tour to Mount Dimats is about — one of the most exciting one-day adventures around Dilijan.

Traveling by 4×4 vehicles, we follow the mountain roads of Tavush and climb towards Mount Dimats, with impressive views of the surrounding cliffs, forests and mountains. Along the way, there are alpine meadows, small mountain settlements and, with a little luck, the famous wild horses that roam freely in this area.

High in the mountains, we stop for a picnic with beautiful panoramic views, before continuing to Haghartsin Monastery, hidden among the dense forests of Dilijan National Park.

On the way back, an optional stop can be made at Lake Sevan, with the possibility of taking a boat trip on the lake.

The Jeep Tour to Mount Dimats is a great choice for travelers who want to experience the mountains of Armenia without a long hike — combining spectacular scenery, real off-road driving and a picnic high in the mountains.

Sometimes the best way to recharge is to replace the usual routine with mountains, new experiences and several days of real travel. Full Restart in Armenia is our eight-day active tour for those who want not only to see the country, but to spend the journey outdoors, on the move and away from the usual city routine.

The route brings together the mountains of Syunik, Tatev, Lake Sevan, the green forests of Dilijan and several days surrounded by nature in Yenokavan. Sightseeing alternates with outdoor activities, including Lastiver, horseback riding, ziplining and a 4×4 tour to Mount Dimats.

Between the adventures, the journey reveals another side of Armenia through local cuisine, wine, artisan cheeses, small towns and beautiful places away from the standard tourist routes.

A full day in Yerevan adds a different rhythm to the journey, with time to explore the Armenian capital, its museums, markets, traditional crafts and brandy culture.

Full Restart in Armenia is seven days of mountains, movement, great food and new experiences — the kind of journey that really feels like a complete change of scenery.

Mount Ararat is more than a mountain. For Armenians, its unmistakable silhouette has been part of the landscape, history and imagination for generations — always visible from Armenia, yet standing just beyond the border. Reaching its 5,165-meter summit is therefore much more than a physical challenge. It is a journey filled with history, emotion and a very special sense of achievement.

The seven-day expedition begins in Yerevan and crosses Georgia into eastern Turkey, with a visit to the medieval Armenian city of Ani before reaching Doğubayazıt at the foot of Mount Ararat. The ascent then takes several days, with mountain camps at approximately 3,200 and 4,200 meters, before an early-morning summit attempt.

Standing on the summit after hours of climbing, surrounded by an immense mountain panorama, is the moment everything has been leading towards. The descent is followed by time to discover Ishak Pasha Palace, Lake Van, Akhtamar Island and Kars, adding history and culture to the mountain experience.

This is a demanding journey, but also one of the most emotional tours in our collection — created for travelers who want to challenge themselves, stand on the summit of legendary Mount Ararat and return with a story that goes far beyond an ordinary holiday.

Syunik is a region worth exploring without rushing. Five days allow enough time to travel deep into southern Armenia, discover its small towns and ancient monasteries, and add a real day in the mountains to a journey through the region.

The route takes us through Goris, Tatev and Kapan to Meghri and the Araks Valley in the far south of Armenia. Along the way, we will discover the winemaking traditions of Vayots Dzor, explore Khndzoresk, travel through mountain gorges and visit ancient fortresses and places rarely included in standard tours around Armenia.

One of the highlights of the journey is Mount Khustup, the symbol of Kapan and one of the most recognizable peaks of Syunik. A full day is dedicated to the mountains: traveling by 4×4 as far as the route allows and completing the final section towards the summit on foot.

Syunik Tour – 5 Days combines a journey through southern Armenia with mountain roads, history and outdoor adventure — for travelers who want to discover the country far beyond the classic routes around Yerevan.
