Explore Tsaghkadzor, Kecharis Monastery, and Lake Sevan on a value-packed Armenia day tour with ropeway views and trout barbecue.

“It was a great tour! The lake was nice and cool but I got super burnt! The sun there is pretty strong so remember to put on sun screen! Also it gets really hot in the bus, I think the AC is blowing at the weakest so the back of the bus gets very hot. The fish was really tasty, pretty boney, look out, but really tasty.”
