Khor Virap, Lusarat, Armenia The Khor Virap monastery is located about an hour’s drive away from the capital Yerevan, and offers an amazing view of Armenia’s defining symbol – the majestic Ararat. “Khor Virap” translates as “deep dungeon”, and was built of the place of the former royal prison, located on the historical site of Artashat. It was this very prison in which they kept Gregory the Illuminator, the first Armenian Catholicos, for a whole 13 years. 40 minutes
Garni Temple, Garni, Armenia Our fantastic tour will introduce you to the exotic Pagan history of Armenia, and show the later development and spread of Christianity in the country. Garni Temple (77 A.D.) – our first stop – is the only standing heathen temple in the whole post-Soviet area. The temple gracefully stands on a high plateau overlooking the Azat river gorge. It is also home to the roman bath house with the mysterious mosaic, made out of 30,000 pieces of natural stones, as well as the ruins of the royal palace, dating back to 3rd century A.D. 40 minutes
The Monastery of Geghard, Geghard, Armenia The monastic complex of Geghard is another historical site included in this tour. Approximately translated into English as “Monastery of the Holy Lance”, it refers to the lance with which Longinus pierced Jesus still hanging on the cross, later brought to Armenia and kept in the Geghard monastery for 5 centuries. The complex is a representation of 13th Century Armenia, which is considered to be the Golden Age of the country’s architecture. However, the most astonishing part is the virtue of the architect, who cut the church right into the solid rock whilst considering all the rules of Armenian architecture. 40 minutes
4P8R+8HM Symphony of Stones, Garni 2215, Armenia Garni Gorge is a stunning natural attraction located in Armenia, near the village of Garni. It is also known as the "Symphony of Stones" due to its unique rock formations that create a beautiful symphony of colors and shapes. 45 minutes

We opted for a driver only on this tour and had the best time. So professional and friendly, we could look at the sights at our own pace and were able to see some amazing things. Would recommend this tour for everyone.

We booked a private trip with a driver, no guide, as I have been to those places and wanted to show them to my 16 year old daughter. Aram the driver was excellent, polite, knowledgable and discreet. The minivan was spotless clean with ample bottled water and a good internet connection. The whole trip took 7 hours including three sightseeing locations and lunch.
We were lucky to have sunny clear skies and a great view of Ararat from Khor Virap. Lunch was optional and the cafe next to Garni temple was good, nothing special about food (a disappointment) but it was offset by lavash baking demonstration and tasting of freshly baked lavash with cheese and herbs.
An excellent stress free experience. The only suggestion would be to provide one-pagers with info on the places we visited.

We booked for 3 full days and travel bus drivers are so rude and terrible behaved for all three days.Drivers don’t listen and stop at their choice of stop, gave on 30-40 min for each stop and start screaming if we late by few minutes. They don’t stop for food break and don’t even allow to eat any snacks inside travel van.
Music also not allowed inside as they switching off by saying they have hearing problems.
And to shock this behavior of each day with each drivers, seems they all have standard practice to harras tourist.
Upon complaint to travel agency first agency attitude is also very casual and second drivers not at all listen to them and kept on shouting over phone.
We recommend don’t use Yerani Travels at all.!
