Highlights
***I am in love with Yerevan and spend most of my time walking around its streets and bridges to discover hidden gems to share with other travelers!*** Let me take you on alternative routes around Armenia with top sights and show you charming passages, secret gardens and the best shopping districts while I share their history and tell you my favorite tales of the city.
During our 4 days we will get familiar with the Armenian historical and religious monuments, ancient culture and national cuisine. We will visit memorials, markets, temples, monasteries and many more to learn about the history. We will take a journey back in time, and find the treasures of an ancient land that is landlocked and mountainous. Armenia, with its dry landscapes to dense forests and steep is ideal for hiking and any sightseeing one can think of. National capital Yerevan remains one of the world's least explored ancient cities.
