Description
Five days is enough to replace the city routine with mountains, nature and outdoor adventure. Restart in Armenia is a compact journey for travelers who want to combine discovering the country with real outdoor experiences over just a few free days.
The itinerary brings together the wine region of Vayots Dzor, the mountains of Dilijan and several days of active travel around Yenokavan. One of the highlights is a 4×4 tour to Mount Dimats with a picnic in the mountains, while Yenokavan offers Lastiver, horseback riding, ziplining and other outdoor activities.
The journey is complemented by Armenian cuisine, a winery visit with wine tasting, Lake Sevan and scenic mountain roads — a little of everything to make five days feel like a real change of pace.
Restart in Armenia is a short active tour for those who want to spend several days on the move, surrounded by mountains and nature, while still discovering another side of Armenia.
The tour is also well suited to corporate groups. The itinerary can be adapted for a team-building program, with additional group activities and experiences.
