Review of Hyur Service’s Garni, Geghard, Symphony of Stones and lavash tour from Yerevan, with practical tips on value, timing and comfort.

“Our group of 15 or so people packed so much into six hours, across Garni, Gegherd and the Symphony of Stones. Our our guide was very friendly and knowledgable too. To be honest, everything was really well organised from the moment I arrived at their office in downtown Yerevan (which was really easy to find). Booking said there was no lunch, but there was plenty of Lavash bread, Armenian cheese and herbs to go around. Thanks very much!”

Review of Yerevan’s private Garni and Geghard tour, with Ararat views, expert guides, pricing, itinerary details, and practical booking advice.

“We booked a half day tour with a driver only (no tour guide). While we normally rent a car when traveling, the driving in Armenia is crazy and dangerous so we were happy to have such a professional and safe driver take us to Garni Temple and Geghard Monastery. (I think his name was something like Tigray???) He spoke enough English and we had no problems with communication. After we visited our last place, he even bought us a traditional Armenian sweet, sujuk. What a nice cultural surprise!”

“I had a great time with Nelly and Hamik. Nelly is an excellent tour guide and Hamik a great driver. Even though the tour actually covers very little ground due to heavy traffic and bad roads, it was interesting to see the old churches and learn about Armenian history. Nelly and Hamik took me to an excellent local restaurant for lunch. I recommend this tour.”
