Michael Brown

I came back from the tour and the tour was great. My 8-day trip with Uncover Armenia was a remarkable experience. The tour included a perfect mix of historical sites. Taking the longest cable car ride to Tatev Monastery was a personal highlight. The tour was well-organized, and our guide Rafi was very knowledgeable. However, I felt that the itinerary could have allowed for a bit more free time in Yerevan. Nevertheless, the tour manager Hasmik was attentive and open to feedback, which made the experience feel personalized. I’d recommend this tour for those looking to immerse themselves in Armenia’s rich history and stunning landscapes.

Uncover Armenia’s tour was an incredible journey through a country full of history and beauty. The visit to the 9th-century monasteries Sevanavank and Hayravank provided deep insights into Armenia’s past. The guides were knowledgeable and friendly, and the tour manager was particularly helpful in accommodating our specific needs. Vardan and Tazo are very knowledgeable and kindfull. The only downside was that some of the days were quite packed, which made the trip feel a bit rushed at times. Despite this, the overall experience was fantastic, and I would certainly recommend this tour for anyone interested in exploring Armenia’s rich culture and stunning scenery.

Our trip to Armenia was mostly wonderful. The tour covered all the major highlights. However, we encountered a minor issue when the air conditioner had problems in the hotel room. Thankfully, our tour manager Hayku was incredibly efficient and resolved the problem quickly. This kind of service really stood out and made our experience smooth despite the hiccup. Overall, the tour was well-organized, and the scenic views were stunning. I would definitely recommend this tour for its overall quality and the professionalism of the tour team.
