I'm sensitive to cigarette smoke. Can I be sure that my hotel room will be non-smoking, and that the driver will not smoke during the group tours?
Can I use my bank card to pay for souvenirs, lunches, or entrance fees during the tours?

I have been using the services of Yur since 2012. I’ve been on all the excursions, and more than once,
This year, the new routes caught my attention.
I’d like to thank the Yur team for the excellent organization and interesting tour programs, and for their attentive, thoughtful care for their guests. The bus drivers’ professionalism is impressive.
This year, grateful tourists applauded Levon for his virtuoso driving over the many switchbacks on the way to Makaravank, and Araik on the way to Lake Kari.
The guides’ informative stories about Armenia are infused with love for their homeland and touch the hearts of their listeners. Thank you, David, for an interesting, engaging introduction to the history of ancient Armenia, and for the positive attitude and clear schedule for the day. Thank you, Arev, for beautifully performing a traditional Armenian song on the way to Gyumri and at Harichavank Monastery.
As a result, a series of poems about Armenia has appeared on my page.

В этом году меня привлекло появление новых маршрутов.
Благодарю коллектив Йур за прекрасную организацию и интересные программы поездок, внимательное и чуткое отношение к гостям. Восхищает профессионализм водителей автобусов.
В этом году благодарные туристы аплодировали Левону за виртуозное преодоление многочисленных серпантинов по дороге в Макараванк, Араику по дороге на озеро Кари.
Познавательные рассказы экскурсоводов об Армении пронизаны любовью к родине и проникают в душу слушателей. Спасибо Давиду за интересный, насыщенный экскурс в историю древней Армении, за позитив и чёткость в программе дня. Спасибо Арев за красивое исполнение исконно армянской песни по дороге в Гюмри и в монастыре Аричаванк.
В результате на моей страничке появился цикл стихов об Армении.
