Begin your small-group journey from Tbilisi and cross the Georgian-Armenian border toward the historic landscapes of northern Armenia. This full-day experience combines medieval heritage, mountain scenery, Lake Sevan, local culture, and a dedicated walking tour of Yerevan.
Your first major stop is Haghpat Monastery, a UNESCO World Heritage-listed medieval complex surrounded by dramatic mountain scenery. Explore its historic churches, courtyards, and stone architecture while your guide shares stories about its history and cultural importance.
Continue to Dilijan, a beautiful forested mountain town. Take a relaxed walk through the historic area and explore Sharambeyan Street, known for traditional architecture, local crafts, cafés, and small shops. Enjoy time for photographs before continuing toward Lake Sevan.
Stop at Lake Sevan for panoramic views before visiting Sevanavank, the historic monastery on the Sevan Peninsula. Explore the monastery and enjoy views across the lake and surrounding mountains.
Continue to Yerevan, where the experience becomes a dedicated city exploration rather than a quick photo stop. Begin a guided walking tour around Republic Square, then continue through Northern Avenue and toward the Opera House, discovering Yerevan’s architecture, cafés, public spaces, and everyday atmosphere.
Continue to the Cascade Complex, one of Yerevan’s most recognizable landmarks. Explore its terraces and viewpoints and enjoy views toward the city and Mount Ararat when visibility allows. Continue toward the Matenadaran area and, depending on timing, explore the historic Kond district and Vernissage market, where you can browse Armenian crafts, artwork, and traditional products.
There may also be time for an optional Armenian coffee, sweets, or local food stop. After the walking tour and free time in central Yerevan, meet your group again and begin the return journey to Tbilisi.
The small-group format provides a more personal experience, with easier interaction with your guide and more time for questions, photographs, and local stories. This experience combines Haghpat, Dilijan, Lake Sevan, Sevanavank, and a deeper exploration of Yerevan before returning to Tbilisi the same day.
