Dagtocht naar Sevan Lake, Tsakhkadzor Rope Way en Kecharis-klooster in Armenië

Fantastische reis - gids zeer deskundig en uitstekend Engels. Bestuurder veilig en auto was geweldig. Prachtige reis.

This was my favourite tour because it was just my friend and I, with a guide and driver. Our guide was exceptional, she spoke excellent English and knew so much about the places we visited. The lake and monastery were stunning, especially since everything was snow-covered... real picture-postcard scenery! The mountains are so beautiful and the cable car allows great views. The second monastery is also fascinating. I recommend this trip! Only downside... I was worried about our guide not wearing a seatbelt the whole journey... I should have said something but was too British about it. So much safer for everyone in the vehicle if everyone is strapped in!

Another perfect tour guided by Nvard! Aside from volunteering as my photographer, she also paid for all the entrance fees. She even emailed me my photos, which is great! First off, Lake Sevan is breath-taking even it was raining when we got there. Yip, the weather is crazy..it's changing like every 5 minutes! It rains, then it gets sunny then it will just pour..hailstorm even! So bring with you winter jacket with hoodies, and wear comfortable sneakers! It was Sunday when we went there, and we were lucky to have witness their mass in the chapel. As for Tzakhkadzor ropeway, it was a great experience for me as a first timer. It is an open seat/ride. It's like riding in a theme park ride, only that it is slow so you can admire the sceneries around you. All the mountains with snow in the vicinity are soothing for the eyes and senses. Kecharis Monastery is indeed one of Armenian treasure, one of their 101 monasteries! A monastery that is strong enough to still stand since year BC until now.
