About this experience

Embark on an unforgettable journey from Yerevan to discover Armenia's iconic landmarks, rich history and breathtaking natural landscapes. Begin at Khor Virap Monastery, one of Armenia's most sacred sites, renowned for its spectacular views of Mount Ararat and its deep religious significance. Continue to Azat Canyon, where you can admire dramatic landscapes, rugged cliffs and the natural beauty of the Armenian countryside. Next, explore Garni Temple, the only surviving Greco-Roman pagan temple in Armenia, celebrated for its impressive classical architecture and scenic mountain setting. Enjoy a lunch break in Garni, where you can savour traditional Armenian cuisine at your own expense. After lunch, visit the remarkable Symphony of Stones, a natural wonder in Garni Gorge featuring towering basalt columns that resemble the pipes of a giant organ. Conclude your sightseeing at Geghard Monastery, a UNESCO World Heritage Site famous for its medieval architecture, rock-cut chambers and spiritual atmosphere. After a day filled with history, culture and stunning scenery, return to Yerevan with unforgettable memories of Armenia.
