    Practical Info

    Are there breaks during longer drives between the main stops?

    Driving times vary by route. Rest breaks are scheduled on longer journeys so guests can refresh before continuing.

    What makes the "Ancient secrets of Armenia in 6 days" tour package special?

    This tour package combines Armenia's historic monasteries, mountain landscapes, winemaking traditions, and lavash baking in one varied itinerary, offering a balanced introduction to the country's history, nature, and culture.

    What essentials should I bring along for the tour on Day 2?

    In summer, bring sunscreen and swimwear if you would like to swim in the lake.

    Will there be much walking involved on Day 3?

    To reach Khor Virap Monastery, you will walk about 180 m, including some stairs. There are also steps on the way to Birds' Cave. The route is manageable for most visitors, although it may be challenging for some.

    What is the lavash baking masterclass like, and can I join the process during the Day 4 tour?

    The lavash baking experience mainly involves a demonstration of how this traditional Armenian bread is prepared, followed by a tasting with cheese and herbs. If you'd like to join in on the process, please let the tour guide know early on.

    Will I be able to attend Divine Liturgy at the Mother Cathedral of Etchmiadzin on Day 5?

    Yes. Divine Liturgy is held on Sundays, and because your tour is scheduled for Sunday, you will have the opportunity to attend the service.
