Reviews of tourists about tours in Armenia

I expected Armenia to be beautiful, but this tour and guide Gor Karapetyan discovered Armenia for us so much that we fell in love with it as if it were our own. The whole group left almost with tears in their eyes. If not in front of our eyes, then in our hearts. I didn’t want to leave so much!!! We had such a good time in Armenia! The organization of the tour, communication before and during the tour were excellent (Leo, thank you). Hotels within the tour, lunch and dinner venues are carefully selected so that guests can try and see as much as possible to make it comfortable. The tour program is PERFECT. You will be able to see all the most beautiful things in Armenia! I would especially like to thank our guide Gor Karapetyan and driver Ashot. Professionals in their field with extensive experience. Gor is so in love with Armenia that we fell in love with it too. It’s so nice when a guide doesn’t just do a job, but wants to show his country in diversity, present it beautifully and interestingly. Gor is a very smart, versatile and erudite person, an amazing guide. Thanks a lot!!! Now I really want to send my parents to Armenia, on the same tour, I hope everything will work out. I highly recommend Barev Armenia, the tour, and the wonderful guide Gor! Barev Armenia, prosperity to your company! Thank you!

The biggest plus is the location! It was very convenient, everything was within walking distance. You left the hotel and you are already in the center of events) I was also pleased with the sound insulation! It seemed that no one lived on the floor with us) and the noise of the city was also inaudible with the windows closed. The room is clean, the staff is friendly. Overall we are satisfied, not taking into account the little things

My mother and I really enjoyed skiing, visiting all the monasteries, tasting all the national dishes; what I ate exceeded all my expectations. Our guide wanted to show us more than what was planned in the program. Every cave, church, landmark - he offered us all. He enjoys what he does and never complains or shows fatigue, always in a good mood, excellent education, charming smile, non-smoker, respects all your wishes. A very positive person. We visited Armenia after the war, in difficult times, but still, the people here are so warm and friendly. It is very comfortable to travel around Armenia during the corona period, because there are practically no tourists. You are alone in nature, without restrictions. Restaurants, monasteries, and ski lifts were opened only for us. The food was amazing. And the prices are really great. Here you pay 15 euros for dinner in a high-end restaurant. The hotel rooms are large, the breakfast is delicious:

I would like to say a huge thank you to the Barev Armenia company for a wonderful trip around Armenia during the March holidays 2020! We were very pleased with the well-thought-out and very interesting route, thanks to which we saw almost all of Armenia in all its diversity (without tedious long journeys), and the well-developed logistics (convenient transport, the road took exactly as much time as planned, we were not in a hurry and We weren't late for anything.) I would especially like to mention our guide, the wonderful Varsenik, who not only told us about the history, culture, legends and traditions of Armenia, but also, undoubtedly, became the soul of our group, gently and tactfully creating comfort for each participant. When a person is engaged in something for which his heart truly lies, it is always felt, and when education, well-readness and the ability to tell an interesting story are added to this, that very atmosphere arises that you do not want to leave. Thank you, Varsenik, we will miss you! I would also like to say about the road - despite the fact that a significant part of our journey passed along serpentines, and I am afraid of them, I felt so comfortable and calm driving that I think I will remember for a long time the kind word of our driver Arkady, who did everything, so that no fears distract us from getting to know Armenia. If you want to go on a trip to Armenia, and at the same time you want it to be a ready-made, thoughtful tour, I sincerely and wholeheartedly recommend the Barev Armenia company!

I don’t often write reviews about trips, but this time I wanted to say warm words as a sign of gratitude to the tour operator Barev Armenia for the wonderfully organized tour “March Holidays 2020 in Armenia”! Immediately upon arrival, we felt that we were in the presence of incredibly professional and responsible people. Transfer, hotel, bus - everything is at the highest level. Words of admiration and gratitude to our wonderful guide Varsenik Melkumyan! So much interesting and unknown information for us, and, most importantly, with what great love for their country it was told! It was impossible to stump her with any question. A superbly delivered speech and competent Russian language made her like her from the first minute. After her excursions, I wanted to read and learn even more about the rich history of Armenia! I would especially like to thank our driver Arkady Sakanyan! With such a complex travel route, we didn’t even notice any serpentines, traffic jams, or problems on the road. Calm and incredibly responsible driving style for passengers. Thank you Barev Armenia for the gift of 6 days of sun and love! We'll definitely be back! Your piece of great love for Armenia remains in our hearts! If you are in doubt whether to go to Armenia or not, there is only one answer: of course, of course, go! With Barev Armenia you don’t have to be afraid of anything!

I want to share my impressions of my holiday in magical Armenia. I went on the "Spring Armenia" tour from 03/06-03/11/2020 from the travel agency "Silver Ring" in St. Petersburg. Host Barev Armenia Yerevan. Our guide was Varsenik, driver Arkady. Varsenik is a professional in his field. He knows history, is oriented in all matters, loves his country very much, and shares his knowledge with dignity and pride. The attitude towards tourists is the most reverent: all wishes and whims are taken into account, questions and interest in the topic of the story are welcomed. Thanks to Varsenik’s experience, our group became a single, well-coordinated team; we all felt great and were ready to listen to the most interesting history of Armenia. We received answers to the questions asked and did not experience any problems. The driver Arkady did his hard job above all praise: he drove the bus with caution and very delicately. No one ever felt bad or felt any discomfort. Thanks to him for this! And of course, a few words about Armenia itself. Beautiful country, wonderful people. The landscapes are stunning, mountains, gorges, snowy peaks, breathtaking! The cuisine is delicious, the cognac is fabulous. Armenia! I'll come back to you again!

We were on tour from March 7 to 12. I really liked it! Thanks to the driver Arkady - a real ace in driving along mountain serpentines! Guide Varsenik is the ideal guide! A person who not only professionally knows history thoroughly, but also knows how to talk about everything so vividly and interestingly, as if he were talking about his beloved friends and relatives :) And there is something to show and tell about. The country is very beautiful, there are many attractions, the food was very tasty every time, the hotels were comfortable, we were greeted warmly. I had a really good time on the trip - I actually had a rest. And it was not a passive vacation, but when every day is a new discovery! Now we are thinking that when the borders are opened again, it will be possible to see in Armenia what has not yet been seen. Develop new routes! Thank you for the wonderful time you had! P.S. : I would like to get group photos of our group.

Barev Dzes, dear Barev Armenia tour operator! From December 31, 2019 to January 7, 2020, I was lucky enough to visit Armenia with the “New Year in Armenia 2020” tour from the Silver Ring travel company (St. Petersburg). I have long planned to get acquainted with Armenia. And my expectations and ideas about the country, its hospitable people, and ancient culture and history were confirmed. This became possible thanks to Barev Armenia, in the person of our guide Ruben Hovsepyan - an interesting storyteller as a scientist and a person from among ordinary people, a great patriot of his Motherland! Every day, in accordance with the stated program, new places awaited us, where Ruben told us about history, architecture, religion, and culture. And always intelligibly, interestingly, with humor. A special memory is the amazing Armenian cuisine and, of course, welcoming the New Year! In addition, thank you for the punctual organization of the transfer upon meeting and departure from Yerevan. Thank you very much for everything! I love and respect you, my new Armenian friends! Elena Ryabukhina, St. Petersburg.

A few days ago we returned to St. Petersburg. And I can’t believe that just recently we were in unrealistically beautiful Armenia. Snowy mountains, the hot sun in Yerevan, the unforgettable Wings of Tatev, the taste of pomegranate wine, the jokes and humor of our guide Gora, the professionalism of the driver Ashot... All this together gave us emotions for the year ahead. Thanks a lot. Such a compact and eventful journey. It was hard, a lot of steps, a lot of things, but so interesting. Fatigue has passed, emotions and impressions remain with us! :) Daria and Alla

We were in Armenia for 3 half days, on March 8, 2020, and during this time, thanks to individual daily excursions in the company of a professional guide Naira and driver Mihran, we received a lot of pleasant impressions and knowledge! I highly recommend everyone to travel with them, to Khor Virap, Noravank - to Garni and Geghard - it was simply amazing! - and be sure to go down to the foot of the “Symphony of Stones” gorge (by car), an incredibly beautiful and amazing place! Thank you very much to the organizers for everything, for the delicious lunches and warm welcome! We will definitely come back to you again!
