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!”
