Day Trip to Armenia Including Homemade Lunch - Akhtala Monastery and its medieval frescoes

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,162 reviews · 11 hours (approx.) · from $59Our pick

Review of a Tbilisi to Armenia day trip with UNESCO monasteries, mountain scenery, a family lunch, transport, border tips, and honest value advice.

“We had a wonderful tour with Dimi (hope I'm spelling that correctly). He had excellent, clear English (and I say that as an English teacher and native speaker) and gave a lot of interesting information about all of the sites were visited. The tour was well organized from the beginning and we left on time. We loved the places we visited and the lunch was really fantastic (and very vegetarian-friendly - yay!). The driver did a great job driving safely. This was a great way to see part of a whole new country on a day trip.”

“This is the perfect tour for those wanting a good experience of Armenia without making a week of it Got to see Lake Sevan which was the highlight, beautiful scenery and a nice restaurant also Had a couple of stops in Yerevan, it is not the most interesting of cities which is why a day trip is best, to see the main points of interest The guide Paata was very informative and helpful with whatever we needed Was very good and I recommend the tour, it’s a lot of driving but definitely worth it to get to see another country”

“I ended up being the only “tourist” on the trip after another dropped out, meaning it was just the driver, the tour guide and I. Being a solo female traveller, I was at first a little apprehensive but they both made me feel so at home and at ease very quickly! My tour guide was very knowledgable (about the sites we were visiting of course, but we also had some great conversations about Georgia as a whole as well as the wider Caucasus region and day to day life). Her English was amazing and probably the best I came across during my time in Tbilisi. The monasteries in Armenia were…”

Travel from Tbilisi to Dilijan, Lake Sevan, Sevanavank, and Yerevan on a long but rewarding Armenia day tour with an English guide.

“It was really nice to see a bit of Armenia, was worth it! But think about your back and how long you can spend in a bus, it was our 3rd day tour in a row, now I would rest one day before a trip like this (or walk a lot😂) but in general it was cool! If you are not planning to buy souvenirs no cash needed, also bus had wifi, so sim card wasn’t necessary also.”

“The morning was a lottle big chaotic as the agent on the website keep asking us to wait in front of Spar, but there were people from other company keep asking us to go another place. We were confused as there were multiple cases of scamming happening in Tbilisi all these while. But at the end things solved out and end up we are combining several bookings from different source and depart together. The online agent should know better and communicate better. The guide Paata and the driver did and awesome job today bringing us to explore Armenia. Lake Sevan was awesome but the floor is too slippery during winters…”
