This comprehensive journey utilizes the vibrant capital city of Yerevan as your central base, allowing you to unpack just once at the Ramada Hotel & Suites by Wyndham Yerevan (or similar) and avoid the hassle of shifting hotels.

The historical leg of the tour brings you face-to-face with the classical Garni Temple, the region's sole surviving Greco-Roman structure, followed by the majestic, cliff-carved Geghard Monastery, a protected UNESCO World Heritage site.
