I have been a tour guide since 2015. To this day, every excursion is a great source of positive energy for me. During the tours, you will not only get acquainted with the sights, the country's history, and its architectural features, but also feel the full charm of the Armenian emotional mindset and lifestyle.

Education – musical-pedagogical and cultural studies. I have worked in the fields of tourism, education, and culture in Russia and Armenia. Currently, I work as a guide at the Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute and in the company "Hyur Service". As a person with a humanities education and a cultural studies mindset, I strive to present my homeland as comprehensively as possible so that visitors gain a general impression of the history and art of the Armenian people. I pay special attention to mental and cultural characteristics to make every visitor's stay in Armenia comfortable and positive. I continue to study and share new knowledge.

My name is Anahit Ghazaryan, and since 2015 I have been in a state of love! I am in love with Armenia, and I always want to talk about it! Come visit! I guarantee it will be beautiful, easy, delicious, and fun! Let's discover Armenia together, enjoy it, and fall in love! I don't like legends and tell them only when absolutely necessary, and only those that feature real historical figures! Since I was born in the middle of the last century, I talk about some events not as a historian, but as a witness!

We spent 5 days with Hyur
Service. We visited Armenia’s most iconic places: Tatev, Khor Virap, Garni, Etchmiadzin Cathedral, and Sevan.
We’d like to highlight the excellent organization - everything was always on time, the vehicles were waiting for guests outside the office as early as 9 a.m., and the guides presented the information in a really interesting way. I want to say a big thank-you to all the guides: Samvel, Anaid, Nina, and David, as well as the drivers: Karen, Spartak, Dzhano, and Yozef. You have a professional team, and traveling with you is easy and enjoyable. I’d also like to mention how nice it is that you provide water throughout the trip and have Wi-Fi on the bus, so you can always stay connected. I especially want to highlight our guide David’s work - his energy lifted us all, and it’s so nice that people like him share their knowledge and enthusiasm. Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

Мы провели 5 дней в компании Hyur
Service. Посетили самые знаковые места Армении: Татев, Хор Вирап, Гарни, Эчмиадзинский собор, Севан.
Хотим отметить высокий уровень организации - всегда все вовремя, машины стоят у офиса уже в 9 утра и ждут гостей, гиды очень интересно подают информацию. Хочу сказать большое спасибо всем гидам: Самвелу, Анаид, Нине и Давиду, а также водителям: Карену, Спартаку, Джано, Йозефу. У вас профессиональная команда и с вами путешествовать легко и приятно. Также хочу отметить, что очень приятно, что выдают водичку на протяжении всей поездки, и есть wifi в автобусе, чтобы всегда оставаться на связи. Отдельно хочу отметить работу гида Давида, он своей энергией заряжал всех нас и так приятно, что такие люди делятся своими знаниями и эмоциями. Спасибо за прекрасный отдых!

We went on four unforgettable private tours in Armenia with our guide, David, and driver, Alexander, from October 28 to November 1, 2025.
My children and I came away with nothing but wonderful memories:
1) I was amazed by the unimaginable beauty of this ancient country. The austere ancient monasteries, steeped in religious symbolism and suffering, were deeply moving. The mountains and nature were breathtaking. Dilijan, with its mountain forests, was extraordinary. We saw golden autumn in the literal sense: golden leaves against a bright blue sky, lit up by the sun! The people impressed us too—cultured, decent, cheerful, very kind and hardworking. The architecture is both ancient and magnificent and modern, carrying on ancient traditions with amazing taste and delicacy.
2) David, our guide, is an extraordinarily charismatic person with deep, comprehensive knowledge of Armenia’s history and culture! You can tell that his tours are carefully planned; he presents information in a clear and engaging way, with well-placed humor and touches of poetry and music. I especially want to mention his tact, thoughtfulness, and refinement. David arranged a few lovely surprises for us: on our tour in Dilijan, we stopped at the sweetest little deer sanctuary (it was wonderful!), and on our tour in Gyumri, we rode the Ferris wheel and saw the city from above! We’re sincerely grateful to David and recommend him to everyone!
3) Alexander drove us on all four tours. He’s a true professional, with a calm, confident driving style. After traveling all over Armenia with him, we always felt safe, even on the mountain switchbacks. I should also say that he’s a very warm, kind, and pleasant person, just as tactful and refined as David. We’re deeply grateful to Alexander and recommend him to everyone as a driver!
4) Hyur has a very convenient website where you can plan your tour in detail, with a wide variety of trip formats and destinations. Being able to choose, book, and pay through the website was very important and convenient for me for several reasons. First, we had our itinerary sorted out right away, didn’t waste any time, and got lots of interesting information and unforgettable memories. Second, we included lunch in our tour plans, which turned out to be a great decision—we ate at wonderful restaurants, and the food was delicious and plentiful. Third, it made it easy to plan our travel budget. I recommend Hyur to everyone! Everything at this company is organized really well and reliably, right down to the smallest detail. We’ll definitely visit you again!

У меня и моих детей остались исключительно приятные впечатления:
1) меня потрясла невообразимая красота этой древней страны. Потрясли аскетичные, пронизанные религиозным символизмом и страданием, древние монастыри. Поразила красота гор, природа. Необыкновенный Дилижан с его горными лесами. Мы увидели золотую осень в буквальном смысле: золото листвы на фоне ярко-голубого неба, подсвеченное солнцем! Впечатлили люди - интеллигентные, порядочные, веселые, очень доброжелательные и трудолюбивые. Архитектура - древняя великолепная и современная, с удивительным вкусом и деликатностью продолжающая древние традиции.
2) Давид - наш гид, это необыкновенно артистичный человек с глубокими системными знаниями истории и культуры Армении! Чувствуется, что его экскурсии тщательно спланированы, информация подается в понятной и интересной форме, с уместным юмором и вкраплениями стихов и музыки. Особенно отмечу его деликатность, ненавязчивость и интеллигентность. Давид устроил нам несколько приятных сюрпризов: на экскурсии в Дилижане мы заехали в милейший питомник оленей (это было прекрасно!), а на экскурсии в Гюмри покатались на колесе обозрения и осмотрели город с высоты птичьего полета! Мы сердечно благодарим Давида и всем рекомендуем этого гида!
3) все 4 экскурсии нас возил Александр, профессионал своего дела со спокойной уверенной манерой вождения. Проколесив всю Армению с ним, мы всегда чувствовали себя в безопасности, даже нс горных серпантинах. Надо сказать, что это очень приятный теплый доброжелательный человек, так же, как и Давид, деликатный и интеллигентный. Благодарим Александра от всей души и всем советуем этого водителя!
4) у фирмы Hyur очень удобный сайт, где можно в деталях спланировать экскурсию с большим разнообразием форматов поездки и направлений. Для меня удобство подбора, бронирования и оплаты через сайт оказалось очень важно и удобно по нескольким причинам: во-первых, план поездки сразу сложился, мы не теряли время зря и получили массу интересной информации и незабываемые впечатления; во-вторых, мы включили обед в план экскурсий и это оказалось хорошее решение - нас кормили в прекрасных ресторанах, вкусно и обильно; в-третьих, оказалось удобо планировать бюджет поездки. Всем рекомендую туристическую кампанию Hyur! Это фирма, где все до мелочей организовано очень хорошо и надежно. Обязательно приедем к вам снова!
