I enjoyed the city tour of Gyumri; for me, the city looks like it's still living in the old days of the 70s. I loved the streets and the buildings, and you will find that most buildings have a story of their own.

(Gyumri & Harichavank) My sister and I were very excited for this tour, as the photos looked very promising. We booked it specifically because the website showed beautiful flowers and greenery. However, when we arrived and explored the area, we found it a bit underwhelming and not quite what we had anticipated. Unlike the other tours we've taken with Hyur (this being my third, 2021, 2022 and 2024 but first in Gyumri) this one fell short of our expectations. It might be helpful to update the photos to reflect seasonal changes, so guests know what to expect. Just to clarify, our guide was wonderful and very helpful (I'm sorry I forgot her name)—the tour itself just wasn’t quite what we envisioned and didn’t fully match the impression we had from the photos.
We always double-check the availability with our local partners for each booking. Even though this is usually a swift process, it can take up to 24 hours. Once this process is completed you will receive your voucher or ticket by email. If our local partner is not able to confirm your booking we will offer you the best possible alternative. If the new date and/or time doesn’t fit your itinerary, we will reimburse the full amount paid.
