- sandraust00Good experienceGroup was quite big, but it was still enjoyable, guide was really friendly and knowledgeable, enjoyed the whole trip.
- sandraust00RecommendIt's a long trip for one day, but totally worth it for the views of mountains. Guide was really informative and time went fast. Lunch was tasty and on the way back stopped for dinner in a canteen like place where also locals eat, liked the food and options there.
- Magic9999900Highly recommendedWe opted for a private tour so we could explore the sights on our own and without a rush, Vahram was our great driver who drove us to all the sites safely, it was very well organised and we didn’t have to worry about anything. The monasteries were beautiful and very unique and lunch was tasty!
- elina a00I’m giving ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ not for the tour, but solely to Karen our tour guide, who had the cutest English accent & surprise!!!!!I am giving⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ not for the tour:/ Solely to our tour guide Karen,who had the cutest English and the best surprise for us
- Laura M00Amazing experience with great guidVery interesting, informative and beautiful tour. Thanks to our tour guide our experience was even better. He gave us proper information and even sang for us on monastery. This tour showed once again how rich is Armenia - its nature and history. Loved the views so much, can’t get enough of them. Our driver was also great and professional. Thank You!
- 427hannsg00Must see group tour: Khor Virap Monastery, Azat Reservoir view point, Garni Temple, Geghard Monastery, Lavash bakingSuper destinations with great impressions, unforgettable Khor Virab monastery visit with view to Mount Ararat. Very reliable service, competent and super nice tour guide Tamara and top bus driver Leo. Many thanks!
- Nomad8451400MargVVery professional, safe and reliable service. Excellent experience. Worth every penny as it provides comfort and peace of mind along with delivering what they promises.
- maddalenad54800An unforgettable dayThe views are stunning throughout the trip and from the ropeway and the monasteries we visited are fascinating, especially Noravanq. The guide gave us a lot of information, not only on the history of the monasteries and the regions we drove through, but also on many other aspects of this fascinating country. The driver was excellent.
- sarahhC1836TP00Amazing experience!Lovely trip with Tamara and Ashot. Tamara was so friendly and knowledgeable and we saw some amazing sights. Lunch was great too.
- maddalenad54800Unforgettable one-day trip to Hahpath, Sanahin, AktalaThe views were stunning and the churches spiritual and historically fascinating. The guide Arev (Sunny in English) was kind, available to everyone and proved to be a competent guide. She also entertained the group with a traditional Armenian song that she sang beautifully!!! The driver Garry was also very good. I strongly recommend this trip
- irina999900Lori, Zarni-Pani visitThis trip was amazing! Seeing all the historic sites was truly special and inspiring. Our driver Araik was a world class professional and drove safely and got us everywhere on time and safely. Karen was our guide who provided information in Russian and English during this 14 hour experience. We highly recommend this tour to all guests and locals.
- Hermine G00Magical tour in the MountainsI went to Lori Region for the first time in my life and was fascinated by how much different it is from the south of Armenia where i usually go on vacation (the climate, the architecture). Our tour guide Arev (Sunny) was very knowledgeable about the region, so i feel i have gained so much historical insights only the local people know. She even sang an armenian song to us which made me very emotional 🥹. In addition Garry, our driver made us feel at home and very safe while driving through the very challenging mountainous roads! Also they picked a really good food place, with a stunning view and i think the best appetizers i had.
- 429maddalenad00Piacevoli escursioni in ArmeniaExcursions to some of the most beautiful and famous places in this fascinating country. The staff is kind and available. I would like to mention in particular the friendly and competent guides, like Arev (Sunny) in English) who accompanied the group today to the Lori region and showed us the lovely churches, above all the frescoed Aktala.
- vardgeso71500Great experienceWe had excellent experience, specially with our tour guide Arevik with her sweet smiles and driver Aro with his high driving experience. They were extremely helpful and patient. Arev had great knowledge about the history. She patiently answered all our questions with a smiling face. I highly recommend taking a tour with them.
- 370michaelf00Monasteries of ArmeniaGreat tour, its a long full day with lots of information and experiences about Armenia. Khor Virap is really wonderful with Mount Ararat in the background, and Tatev is quite impressive. You have lunch at a nice location beside a river, which is not included but well worth it. Guide Arpi and driver Leman were really wonderful, so make sure to ask when they are on.

Garine (the tour guide) and Mavrig took us on the short Yerevan and Echmiadzin tour on 6 April 2022. It was wonderful. The tour guide was well infromed, spoke clearly and extremely likeable and the bus driver Mavrig was a skilled driver. Hyur Service remains one of the best service providers from accomodation to tours. I am a repear customer and intent to continue coming back for more!

I'm very thankful that I booked a group tour with Hyur service. The tour guide, Liana, was so amazing. She managed to give us satisfaction about the historical places in Armenina in a language that we could understand. Our driver, Joseph is good. He drove well. I will recommend Hyur Service for those who are planning to explore Armenia 🇦🇲 😀 😄

I think this is the most if not the most important tour about Armenian history in 5 hrs but all goes down due to the planning: large groups (headphones are recommended), depart the tour in 2-3 languages makes everyone have to wait each site tour is departed meaning long waitings (was worst in the Echmiadzin museum for misscordinations); and lastly, no stop for lunch which made me starve beyond 3pm.
Proper planning would require: 1 only language, shorter tours no waiting, more engagement, leave time for lunch (run it in 3 hrs in mornings or afternoon). I'm not an expert in tourism but I stand for good Customer Experience and so far with this company has been poor.

A really enjoyable tour. The tour guide, Liana, was very good indeed - retaining vast amounts of information about each site and switching between English and Russian languages with ease. Tour was well designed with just the right balance of guided talk and free time at each site

We learned a lot of Armenian history by visiting historical monuments and Echmiadzin treasure museum which you cannot miss. Our guide Élizabeth was able in a short time to present to us the essential information in an interesting manner. Our lunch at the Mother Cathedral 17th century refectory was nicely presented with salad, cheeses, chicken kebabs and potatoes with dessert and coffee.

The bus left at exactly the time specified in the tour, so I am happy that Hyur and our guide Tigran are punctual. It was a nice and calm tour with a lot of information about Yerevan, Echmiadzin and Zvarnots. We also went to the railway station which is a very nice looking soviet structure which was rarely mentioned in the blogs and places to visit while in Yerevan. Even though the weather is not so friendly to us that day but Tigran made our trip a very memorable one. e is good in babysitting a large group of tourist. Tigran also alternates which group (English & Russian speakers) to start , which made us feel comfortable and not neglected.

Once again Hyur Service tours did not disappoint. We went to Echmiadzin and Zvarnots on a tour and thoroughly enjoyed every moment. The cultural significance of these sites to Armenians cannot be understated. Our guide Tatev was very good to explain each site and provide much background and history of the Armenian people. Also our driver Levon was great, skillfully maneuvering our large bus through traffic to get us to our destinations on time. And we were so appreciative of the air conditioning because it was a very hot day!
This was our third tour with Hyur Service and each one was wonderful!

The group tour to Etchmiadzin and surrounding churches exceeded expectations, even though I knew the destination was something of great interest to my group! Karen was a highly knowledgeable and engaging tour guide that knew and shared the stories behind each of the destinations. The water and gata in the bus was a necessary touch as it was extremely hot. We also had enough time at each site while not spending too much time at any one location. Loved this and highly recommend this agency and the tour to Etchmiadzin with Karen!!!!

For the second year in a row, we visited Armenia and took tours with Hyur Service in a dedicated very clean, air conditioned van (with lots of water bottles to drink). Our driver Levon was a wonderful driver who was taking care of my kids as if his own. Our tour guide Hamaspyur kept on guiding us in English through out the tour from pick up to drop off. She was very kind, knowledgeable and full of energy.
If you have a family, I highly recommend them as we have taken 4 tours in total during the 2 years and their service is amazing 5 stars!
