Долгая, очень насыщенная, но одновременно очень интересная экскурсия 17 апреля 2023 в северную область Армении. Очень понравилась работа гида (прошу прощения, имя не запомнила), но знаю, что это преподаватель истории, который очень четким поставленным голосом проводил экскурсию. Наша группа была не очень большая (17 человек), ездили на минивэне, что было очень удобно. Гид предоставлял не только стандартную путевую информацию и экскурс по посещаемым местам, но также познакомил гостей с исторической информацией. Было видно, что гид очень любит свою работу, свой предмет и, особенно, свою страну - великолепную Армению. Водитель - также большой профессионал, заботился о безопасности гостей. А какие великолепные виды северной части Армении нам показали! Немного не повезло с обедом (разместили на обед на улице, хотя погода была в этот день ну очень прохладная, и большинству гостей было действительно холодно сидеть на улице, но это к работе Hyur Service никакого отношения не имеет, поскольку ресторан - другое юр.лицо. Да, наверное, не рекомендую брать свиной шашлык именно в этом месте - был достаточно сухой. В остальном все великолепно.
