Cần Quan Tâm
Khor Virap
Although there are various historical landmarks in Armenia, the oldest and most well-known is probably the Biblical Mount Ararat. This is why our tour promises a spectacular view from the closest spot possible. Khor Virap monastery is located about an hour’s drive away from the capital Yerevan, and offers an amazing view of Armenia’s defining symbol – the majestic Ararat. “Khor Virap” translates as “deep dungeon”, and was built of the place of the former royal prison, located on the historical site of Artashat. It was this prison in which they kept Gregory the Illuminator, the first Armenian Catholicos, for a whole 13 years. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that this place is one of the most sacred spots for Armenians around the world. Likewise, it’s also the closest point to the Mount Ararat from Armenia; very often this spot becomes the number 1 reason to visit our country!
Noravank Monastery
Another place that can’t be missed is Noravank. It is one of the gems of medieval Armenian architecture, nestled high among the stunning brick-red cliffs in the end of the Gnishik Canyon. Here you will see the one and only depiction of God the Father in Armenia, which is just as astonishing as the face of Jesus Christ that appeared on the dome of the Church’s narthex. Built by Orbelian noblemen, it stands out among our churches as the sepulcher of this noble family, making it unique since it was absolutely prohibited to bury people inside a church since the 5th century.

4.00The tour overall is good. The tour guide gave enough information but she spoke very fast and was rushing all time in the tour. The pace could be slower.
Wonderful experience

5.00We had a wonderful day, and this tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Armenia. The itinerary was very well organized, and the landscapes were spectacular. A special thanks to our guide, who not only explained the history and monuments but also immersed us in the heart of Armenian culture, traditions, and the identity of this extraordinary people. Thanks to her passion and expertise, we understood the country we were visiting much better. The view of Mount Ararat from Khor Virap and the visit to Noravank will remain among the most beautiful memories of our trip. We highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to discover authentic Armenia.

4.00Nice experience, but spending so many hours on the bus would need a more comfortable and air-conditioned vehicle. Good and capable driving, and very nice places. Tasting is avoidable, except if you are not over-lovers of wine.
