Her enthusiasm, deep knowledge, and attentive care for each participant transformed the day into something truly memorable. With her engaging storytelling and subtle humor, she created a warm and friendly atmosphere that allowed us to connect effortlessly with our fellow travelers.

“I guess it very much depends on a guide. But if you'll get Hasmik it will be a great experience. She was thoughtful even during breaks and stuff. Her both English and Russian was superb. She delivered during transports and even talked to us during visits and giving expert tours. Not only she learned the stuff but also she knew answers to about everything. But. Be aware it is an exhausting trip. With a lot of time in transfers. So think twice if you're not interested in the programme. But you'll also have enough time on the stops.”

“I had a wonderful tour with Arpine Khalatyan. Khor Virap and the views towards Mount Ararat was stunning and the landscapes we encountered towards Noravank and Jermuk were beautiful.

“I’d like to extend our warmest appreciation to Armine and Vahan for a wonderful trip. It was such an amazing experience. I really commend Armine for her dedication to share the rich culture of Armenia. And to Vahan, for driving us safely during the entire trip. We just got a short stay in Armenia, but definitely, Armine made it very worth it and memorable trip. We enjoyed the breathtaking views going to Noravank. I think of all the monasteries that we’ve visited, Norabank was one of the best, the breathtaking views was just so extra ordinary.”
