Castles and fortresses of Armenia

Cultural and historical tours to the castles of Armenia

Classification of tours by difficulty

Tours marked "easy" mean comfortable transportation along the entire route of the tour on predominantly asphalt roads, do not include activities that require physical activity and special training, they are suitable for participants of all ages. Despite this, any tour implies certain minimum requirements for health and physical activity, small walks, etc. Considering that Armenia is a mountainous country, even a simple transfer from one destination to another always passes along serpentine roads - through gorges and mountain slopes. Within one day, we can also get into different climatic zones from hot heat to windy cold rain. All this creates a certain load on the body for which you need to be prepared. Thus, tours marked "easy" may also have episodes that will be difficult for you due to health reasons.
Science has long proven that moderate physical activity is the key to health, good mood and good spirits. And if your life in a big city passes through a closed triangle smartphone - car - TV, then during your vacation you can catch up and combine cultural immersion with an active thematic tour. With us you can discover the wonders of the wild nature of Armenia, breathe in the freshest mountain air, find unexpected adventures and experience healthy physical activity. Medium-difficulty tours in Armenia include off-road SUVs, hiking and horseback riding of varying intensity and duration, bruises and injuries are possible, adverse weather conditions, trails can be far from settlements and shops, so you should stock up on all the essentials, get enough in spirit and forward, for victory over yourself! This is a challenge for beginners, but there may be health and age restrictions on such tours.
Extreme tours to Armenia are specialized thematic tours for professionals - brave explorers of a unique experience, for those who are ready to take risks for the sake of adrenaline and a rapid flow of vital energy. Tour participants marked extreme - usually a professional with a wealth of experience, looking for new directions and difficulties for their interest. Along with overcoming high mountain peaks under extreme weather conditions, other modern activities are now appearing in Armenia, such as mountain biking, rock climbing, mountain skiing, snowboarding, sky running, rafting, paragliding, diving, parachuting, rope jumping - jumping on ropes over the abyss. Now all this is available in Armenia, accompanied by professional instructors.
