Full-day Armenia tour from Yerevan to Gyumri and Harichavank, with urban life museum, black fortress, old town, snacks, and entry fees.
“This one was challenging for me to be with 14 Russian speakers and only a few English speakers. Gyumri was somewhat disappointing in that I spent a whole day for this tour. The museum was interesting, though.”
Yerevan Card for $40: free entry to 30+ museums, transit, SIM with map, airport transfer, and included tours around Yerevan.
“The staff at the Yerevan Card office were most helpful, especially Arev and Lilet. They arranged excursions (city bus tour, cognac factory tour and tasting, tour to Garni and Geghard) efficiently and communicated well with me regarding times and meeting point (using WhatsApp and phone calls). They also arranged an airport transfer for me reliably and also arranged a shared taxi to a regional city for me. And they were very friendly as well! The Card itself is very useful if you plan to visit any of the many museums in Yerevan (though it is not valid at Etchmiadzin museum which is under church authority). I would highly recommend it,…”
Gyumri Museum of Illusions tour: 60-plus interactive exhibits, an English guide, funny photo moments, and the science behind each trick.
“It was a great experience, nice staff, funny experiments. I got smarter at the end:) It lasts around 40-50 min and it worths the money!”
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”

“The guider on November 9th is really good !best of all my 3 tours”
Private Yerevan city tour with museums, a carpet-weaving master class, and major cultural stops, with pickup, English guide, and air-conditioned transport.
“Very nice way to visit Yerevan and get to know the history of the city and a bit more of Armenian culture. All the places we visited in this tour were guided in English. We had lunch at the Tospia restaurant and it was also very good. I really recommend this tour to anyone visiting Yerevan. Everything was very well organized and the guide Aida and driver Kostya were very friendly and polite. Thanks, Yerani Travel!”
