Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Pass By: Ayrarat Tour, 45 Orbeli Brothers, Yerevan 0028 Armenia
Your driver will meet you at a location convenient to you in Yerevan.
Stop At: Monastery Sevanavank, next the Holy Mother of God Church, Sevan Armenia
First of all, you will stop at the picturesque Lake Sevan with its crystal clear water and stunning historic peninsula which is home of medieval monastery Sevanavank. Nicknamed the ‘Blue Pearl’ this magnificent lake is the jewel of Armenia. The Wonderful Lake that surrounds the peninsula of Sevan and Sevanavank is one of the most beautiful places in Europe.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Dilijan National Park, Dilijan Armenia
Driving about 90 kilometres to the northeast of Armenia's vibrant capital city of Yerevan, the highway narrows into mountainous roads as you enter the Tavush region. Your second stop is the old charming town Dilijan. The unseasonably hot and humid summer has vacationers flocking to "Armenia's Switzerland" from across Armenia and bordering Georgia, Russia and Iran, as well as from various parts of Europe. They come seeking what affluent folks of Transcaucasia sought when they built their summer villas here -- the crisp, alpine mountain air of unspoiled forests, preserved national park and lakes and to bask in the natural healing springs. In fact, Dilijan mineral water is bottled and marketed throughout the country.
