Reviews of tourists about tours in Armenia

I want to write a lot, because I’m overwhelmed with a lot of impressions, but I’ll try be more specific. I travel often and, as a rule, I create the program myself. It was the one a spontaneous but happy occasion when we “gave ourselves away” into the hands of the tour operator. And we didn’t regret it!!! Everything turned out like in a fairy tale - wonderful people came together with whom it was easy and interesting. Each was an individual, i.e. is very interesting in itself. And the main thing is that we were VERY lucky with the guide, young, but it seemed like he was real a professional in his field. Easy and relaxed, with humor and great proud of his country, he told us about ancient and ancient times, and also about modern problems. We were simply fascinated by him, his emotionality and even passion. I think it really helped us enjoy the trip, the knowledge and new emotions. I can speak for myself, but I’m sure that everyone else would support me, that it’s great The share of a successful trip depends on the guide. Yes, his name is GARNIK MIRZOYAN. I liked Armenia very much, for me this is already the 40th country - friendly and rich history. I think quite a bit of time will pass and we will come back again to see It’s like being with an old friend and seeing something new and amazing. Thank you,

Hello, dear friends! Barev dzes! A short report on the gastronomic tour to Armenia September 19 - 25, 2017. We were lucky: the stars aligned! And good weather (is there anything different in Armenia?!), and beautiful nature, and unique historical monuments, and friendly residents, and delicious food, and a charming, warm company that accidentally (?!) gathered on this tour! Everything was just great! Many thanks to the host! There was not a single failure during the entire trip. True, our team was punctual and very cheerful, inquisitive and with a good appetite! Special thanks to our Armenian friends! Probably, this is what you can call Araik (our driver, not a single emergency situation on the road) and Ruben (our guide, not a single unanswered question)! They did everything to make our trip through your magically beautiful country even more magical! Thanks to them, we want to come to Armenia again and again! Dear gentlemen, managers of the wonderful travel agency "Barev Armenia"! We ask you to encourage the professionals in their field - Ruben and Araik! We hope to see you again on your hospitable land! P.S. Sorry for not writing a review right away, there were too many emotions!.. Marina, Olga, Flora, Sergey. Moscow.

We just returned from Armenia. I would like to share my impressions and thank the organizers for a wonderful tour. We not only tasted amazing wines (I especially want to mention the Voskevaz plant), but also visited many places significant for the Armenian people, and admired the wonderful nature. Our guide, Gor Karapetyan, a great expert on the past and present of his homeland, spoke so amazingly about everything and did everything in his power to make our trip a success. He and the driver Mihran were our guardian angels. Thanks to them, we got to know and love Armenia, its hospitable and welcoming people. We were received very warmly everywhere. We left and took with us the warmth of your country and a great desire to come again.

Many thanks to the Barev Armenia company for organizing an amazing trip around Armenia in September 2017. We chose a classic tour with individual accompaniment, and we were not disappointed. The program is well thought out! We express special gratitude to our guide, Roland Tmoyan - this man is a true expert on Armenian culture, he spoke and showed his country with such inspiration that it was impossible not to fall in love with it. Unique temples, fortresses, caves, of course, khachkars, duduk, tearing at the soul... Armenia is amazing, original, beautiful... If you are planning a trip to Armenia, Barev Armenia will make it unforgettable. The hotels were very well chosen (the view from the balcony of the Nare Hotel in Yerevan is just a song!), wonderful places for lunch and dinner (the Tsaghkunk guest house is an amazingly romantic place, and most importantly - delicious)... We can talk endlessly about this trip. Many thanks to our driver, Vaha - we were in good hands! On the most breathtaking serpentines he was calm and in complete control of the situation. Thank you, friends, for Armenia, we will definitely return and say “Barev, Armenia!”

В сентябре 2017 посетили Армению. Тур прошел на «отлично». Прекрасно составленная насыщенная программа, разностороннее эрудированный гид Рубен и профессиональные водители Ваге и Давид, позволили за время поездки познакомиться с историей, культурой, природой и кулинарией этой гостеприимной страны. Благодарим команду «Барев Армения» за организацию и проведение тура.

Very good restaurant. The prices are the same as everywhere else, but everything is very tasty. And you read the menu like high literature!!!!

We recently returned from the beautiful city of Jermuk, and while the memories are still fresh, I would like to share them with everyone. Well, first things first. On the road to Jermuk, stunning views of the valley, various mountains, gorges, mountain rivers open up; in general, the nature in Armenia is cool. Without having time to enjoy these views, we arrived in Jermuk. We rested in the Olympia sanatorium. I chose this sanatorium based on reviews on various sites and, as it turned out later, the choice was excellent and the Olympia sanatorium can rightfully be considered the best in Jermuk. Upon arrival, we were met at the reception by a nice girl, Armine, who gave us a nice two-room suite, just as we ordered. The next day we went to our attending physician, Christina, who prescribed us examinations and, based on their results, a set of various procedures was prescribed, taking into account contraindications, so I can say that Christina the doctor is very attentive and professional. The child had about 5-6 procedures a day, we (adults) had about 7-9. The procedures have a general strengthening effect, but there are also those that are aimed directly at problem areas. My main problem was headaches and pain essentially all over my back. I would like to dwell on this in a little more detail. I was prescribed injections in the back and knees, which improved blood circulation in the tissues; this is not something we can find here, and no one does such things in Jermuk, except in Olympia. They were performed on me with great success by another doctor, Tamara, a very kind and sympathetic person, for which I express special gratitude to her. A therapeutic massage was also prescribed, the performer of this procedure was masseur Ashot. I went to him for a massage once, having long-standing back problems, I have a lot of experience going to various massage therapists and have something to compare with. So, I didn’t like the massage at all, it’s impossible to perform a high-quality back massage in 15, at most 20 minutes, I can also say that Ashot does not have the necessary knowledge of treatment. My son, when he had a massage, he said that his back was good, but it was not. Having read various reviews in advance, I knew that in Jermuk there was a great massage specialist - Hakob Hakobyan, who also worked in Olympia sometime before 2014. The next day we went to look for him, because approximate coordinates had been left. In principle, we found it quickly - from the Olympia hotel you need to turn left, walk about 5 minutes to the intersection with a left turn sign, where the Anush hotel is located, accordingly turn left towards it, walk 50 meters opposite the hotel there will be VTB Bank (where, by the way, I advise you to exchange rubles for drama, because the rate was better than in Yerevan) and to the left of the bank there is a door, where Hakob receives. I can say that Akop is a man from God, what he did was not done to me by either the vaunted Moscow specialists or the best massage therapists in the Moscow region. He looked at my MRI results (I took them with me to Armenia) and began to help me, and gradually, with each massage session I felt better and better, the headaches and back pain began to go away, the general massage session lasted about 1.5 hours! !! This was not the case anywhere, Akop did a massage from head to toe, massaging every bone)) also looking at my son’s back, he said that he had a curvature and showed it to me (let me remind you that Ashot said that my son has a good back, which once again says about his unprofessionalism, also after I stopped going to see him, he stopped greeting me - this, in my opinion, is too much and a question about the ethics of the employee) and Akop also gave his son and wife massages throughout our entire vacation. Absolutely everyone has improved, my son’s back has straightened, my wife’s pain has gone away, and my back has gone away. Even when we came from the mountain, where we were caught in the wind, with severe pain, after a massage, these pains went away and our mood improved. Prices are similar to those in the Olympia sanatorium. Therefore, I exclusively recommend that everyone who travels to Jermuk and needs a high-quality and professional massage get it from Hakob. He also showed me special exercises for the neck, which I now need to do daily, and gave me lifestyle recommendations to consolidate the effect of the massage, which is also not often seen. Well, that's all about the procedures)) Now about the hotel itself. I want to say that the entire staff is great, everyone is kind and smiling, it makes no difference to them whether you are from Armenia or Russia, the procedures were done in a high-class and precise manner, the girls at the reception were absolutely always ready to solve any of our problems with a smile. They clean the rooms perfectly, the hotel itself is impeccably clean, they vacuum the carpets several times a day, wipe the windows on all sides, wipe the leaves of the flowers, in general I have not seen this anywhere)) the food is good, a little monotonous, but still there is a buffet and there is always There is so much to choose from, everything is very tasty and healthy, special thanks to the chef. The hotel is located very well, the gallery with mineral water is no more than a 5-minute walk in a straight line, the freshest, intoxicating air, spruce and pine trees all around, a beautiful waterfall, unrealistic views from the mountains

Dear friends! Today is my first day at work after vacation and I’m telling everyone about my wonderful impressions of Armenia in general and Barev in particular. It seems to me that it is not possible to improve the tour - everything was flawless. Thanks to Barev, I fell in love with Armenia, its culture and people. Many thanks to our guide Tatev and driver Arko - they were our guides into the world of this amazing country. The program is very rich, varied, but balanced. Hotels and food are excellent. But the main thing is Barev’s very cordial and attentive attitude to any request, her desire to solve any problem. This is true hospitality. After my stories, two pairs of my friends have already gathered to visit Barev! Wait! In our free time we visited the Genocide Museum and the Parajanov Museum - this is not to be missed!!!! Perhaps it is worth including this in the main program, or recommending that tourists visit it in their free time, but without fail! Tatyana Bokareva and her mother Marina

Good afternoon We would like to thank the entire Barev Armenia team for an excellent and interesting trip (May 21-27, 2017) and getting to know your wonderful country. Separately, a big hello and many thanks to our guide Gor and driver Ashot. You treat your country with such love that it is impossible not to fall in love with Armenia. We will recommend both travel to your country and cooperation with the agency to all our friends and colleagues. With love from Moscow! Good luck and prosperity! Svetlana, Maria
