Thank you to the Hyur servis team for the positive emotions we got from our private tour from June 5 to 10, 2026. We specifically contacted this company while we were still planning our trip, and they put together a wonderful tour that took our wishes into account. They also recommended hotels in Yerevan and Goris. In Yerevan, we chose the Mandarin and Ani Sentral Inn hotels, and in Goris, we chose the ArMar hotel. Our guide throughout the trip was David Asratyan, and our driver was Grach Andreasyan. The guys did a 5+ job. In just a few days, David told us about Armenia’s history, customs, and culture. We saw so many beautiful places and fell in love with Armenia! A huge thank-you to our guides for that.
On the day we arrived, we had a sightseeing tour of Yerevan by car. Of course, we went up the hill in Aghtanak (Victory) Park to the Mother Armenia monument, which offers the best view of central Yerevan. We visited the Cascade Complex, admired Mount Ararat, and strolled through the streets of Yerevan.
On day two, we visited the ancient Garni Temple, Geghard Monastery, and the natural monument called the “Symphony of Stones” gorge.
At the cave temple in Geghard, we enjoyed live acoustic singing! It’s mesmerizing!
Next came a two-day tour that began with visits to the Khor Virap and Noravank monasteries. Then we had a wonderful Armenian home-cooked lunch with traditional drinks—delicious, filling, and full of atmosphere. After lunch, we rode the Wings of Tatev reversible cable car and visited Tatev Monastery. We spent the night in Goris, and the next day we crossed the swinging bridge to the ancient cave town of Khndzoresk. Then, tired but happy, we returned to Yerevan. In the morning, a new trip was waiting for us: Lake Sevan, Sevanavank, the town of Dilijan, and the Goshavank and Haghartsin monastery complexes. Is it worth going? Absolutely—yes! And definitely go with Hour servis. Thank you to your team.

Целенаправленно обратились именно в эту фирму, когда только планировали поездку и они составили замечательный тур с учетом наших пожеланий. А также посоветовали отели в Ереване и Горисе. В Ереване мы выбрали отели Мандарин и Ани Сентрал инн, в Горисе выбрали отель АрМар.Нашим гидом на протяжении всего путешествия был Давид Асратян, а водителем - Грач Андреасян. Ребята работали на 5+. За несколько дней Давид рассказал нам про историю Армении, её обычаи, культуру. Мы посмотрели много красивых мест и влюбились в Армению! За что нашим сопровождающим огромное спасибо.
В день прилёта -обзорная экскурсия по Еревану на автомобиле, конечно поднялись на холм в парке Ахтанак (Победа), к монументу Мать Армения, откуда открывается лучшая панорама на центр Еревана, посетили комплекс Каскад, полюбовались горой Арарат и прогулялись по улочкам Еревана.
День второй- посетили, античный храм Гарни, монастырь Гегард, памятник природы ущелье "Симфония камней" .
В пещерном храме Гегард насладились живым акустическим пением в пещерном храме! Это завороживает!
Далее был двухдневный тур, который начался с осмотра двух монастырей Хор Вирап и Нораванк, потом был прекрасный армянский домашний обед с национальными напитками- вкусно, сытно, атмосферно. После обеда прокатились на реверсивной канатной дороге крылья Татева, посетили Татев монастырь. Ночевали в Горисе, а на следующий день прошлись по качающемуся мосту в древний пещерный город Хндзореск, и потом уставшие, но довольные вернулись в Ереван. А утром ждало новое путешествие на озеро. Севан, Севанаванк, в город Дилижан, монастырские комплексы Гошаванк, Агарцин.Стоит ехать? Однозначно - да! И ехать именно с Hour servis . Спасибо вашей команде.

Hello,
I want to say that we had 2 amazing tours with Hyur - one Southern Wonders and one to Garni/Geghard. Our driver Ara was excellent and our guide, Khatchatur was amazing! He made the tours very special. We loved listening to his explanations of all the monasteries, he has a great depth of knowledge and history. We also loved all the lunch selections, the food was excellent.
These tours were definitely the highlight of our trip. Thank you for making our trip unforgettable!!
Kristina, Gaston, and Barkev.
