What to expect
Lined with traditional houses and artisan workshops, Sharambeyan Street takes you hundreds of years back in time. Situated within a national park, the area, popularly known as "Little Switzerland" for its forested hills and picturesque houses made of stone and wood, remains home of many Armenian visual artists, musicians, and filmmakers.
Haghartsin Monastery is a stunning medieval architectural masterpiece nestled in the lush forests. Built in the 13th century, this historic complex is renowned for its intricate stone carvings, including exquisite khachkars (cross-stones), and its serene atmosphere.
Ijevan Wine-Brandy Factory
Ijevan Wine-Brandy Factory is one of the first wineries in Armenia. It was founded in 1951 in the city of Ijevan, Tavush region, in the valley of Aghstev and Spitak Jur Rivers. Ijevan is surrounded by mountains covered with deciduous forests, which are sometimes replaced by alpine meadows. Such a favorable geographical location and excellent climatic conditions make the products of the factory even more unique. The factory produces high-quality brandies, grape and fruit wines, sparkling wines, vodkas, juices and a wide range of canned products.
Lake Sevan
Whilst staying in Armenia, you simply cannot miss the opportunity of visiting one of the country’s most renowned landmarks – the beautiful lake Sevan. Merely an hour’s drive from the capital city of Yerevan, Sevan is situated at the height of 1900m above sea level and surrounded by a vast chain of mountains. The tour begins by climbing a flight of stairs to the Sevan peninsula – a pleasant morning work-out that will compensate itself with an unforgettable panoramic view of the lake from the top. We will also visit the monastery of Sevanavank, built by the princess Mariam to honor the life of her deceased husband in the 9th century. Sevanavank is also home to one of the most beautiful Amenaprkich (all savior) Khachkars of Armenia. This is one of the 13 rarest cross-stones depicting Jesus.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
