• 4Armenia was wonderful!

  The route was wonderful, and mountain routes and roads seemed scary. Thanks to the wonderful driver, we covered everything very well, reached lake Sevan and Yerevan, and were very fortunate with the weather to see everything in beautiful sunlight! People are surprised we could do it within one day - but this shows professional skills of our wonderful driver who was simply amazing! I wish we could hear much more about the in-depth history of Armenia and its places, as we did on our other trips, but we can read about it now. At least we saw the places!

• 2Underwhelming

  Unfortunately our tour bus broke down after the first stop in Armenia, which sent the rest of the day off track. Some other guests commented that there were problems with the vehicle even before we began. Irrespective while our guide did her best to keep the tour on track and the in good-humour, she seemed to get little support from the tour company. The first replacement vehicle came after more than two hours, had some dispute with the company and left. The next came an hour later and had no air conditioning, smelt of gasoline and was extremely rundown. This vehicle got us to Yerevan. The final replacement picked us up at 8:30 pm for the drive back and the driver insisted on blasting his music all the five hours back till 2 am despite repeated requests to soften the music. Yerevan was very nice, and the view of Mt. Ararat was a highlight, but overall the trip was underwhelming, compounded with the poor logistics.

• 5A great way to get to Yerevan from Tbilisi

  We had a great day with Paata as our guide. It was great to visit the monastery followed by the lake and to see the main sights in Yerevan. We stayed in Yerevan so it was a good way to see more along the way rather than flying or taking the train.

• 5Great way to get to Armenia

  This was more than just a transfer. It was a great way to see Armenia while still having time to explore Yerevan. You would be so lucky to have Paata as your guide. He is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. He also has a great sense of humor 10 out of 10 would do this again.

• 5A taste of Armenia

  Great way to see a little bit of Armenia from Tbilisi! It’s a long day, but so worth it to experience Armenian culture, food, and sites. Paata, our guide, definitely takes care of you and keeps you entertained. The two restaurants we stopped at accept credit card and the border crossings were seamless.

About Tbilisi

Tbilisi, Georgia's capital, spills along a river gorge beneath a fortress, mixing balconied old houses, sulphur baths and bold modern landmarks.

The old town gathers along the Mtkvari River, its narrow streets lined with carved wooden balconies, churches and wine bars. Abanotubani, the bath district, is crowned by brick domes over sulphur springs, and the walls of Narikala Fortress overlook it all, reached by cable car or a steep walk. The Mother of Georgia statue stands on the ridge holding a sword and a bowl of wine.

Top-ranked sights in Tbilisi: Metekhi Church, Narikala Fortress, Tbilisi Old Town (Dzveli Tbilisi).
