“Excellent service de la part du chauffeur (qui n’est pas un guide). Trajet à ne faire que si l’on n’a pas plus de temps pour Tbilissi, car faire 10h de voiture pour 3h sur place, ça mérite réflexion”
Private Yerevan tour with Erebuni Fortress, Matenadaran manuscripts, Tsitsernakaberd memorial, plus Republic Square sights, with pickup and a guide.
“I was also pleased with this tour. However, I was not prepared for the fact that it covered all the museums in Yerevan but did not cover any of the main attractions. My guide and driver were really accommodating though, and amended the itinerary to visit the monuments I wished to visit. Do take note that Hyur Service offers a sightseeing tour that covers the attractions. This tour is better for those who have a strong interest in art history/museums”

“I LOVED this tour! If you’re big into Soviet history, or even just looking to see a different side of Yerevan, I highly recommend. It was such a unique way to go to the outskirts of the city and understand how people lived in Soviet times (and even continue to live to this day). I especially enjoyed the Soviet jokes from our guide Marine. Highly recommend!”

“We really enjoyed our tour with Nina and Tigran. Nina was an outstanding and wonderful guide - so knowledgeable, engaging and easy to listen to (we could listen to her for hours!). Tigran was an excellent driver, always attentive and thoughtful, even opening the door for us each time. Both of them were incredibly welcoming and friendly. Nina always checked in to see if we wanted to spend more time at different stops. They made the whole experience comfortable and memorable. We went to some amazing places like Lake Sevan, Dilijan, Tzgahakadzor, Lake Parz - we wouldn’t have been able to have had the same experience without Nina’s stories and…”

“Excellent opportunity to explore the key highlights of Yerevan. Arto was a very friendly guide, possessing extensive cultural knowledge. Moreover, he made the tour highly enjoyable and comfortable; it felt like walking with a friend. We were able to coordinate the tour time through WhatsApp, and Arto was considerate in asking about the schedule that suited me best.
