Embark on a full-day tour of Armenia and visit the country's most iconic landmarks. Explore the breathtaking landscapes and centuries-old history of the region.

Begin your journey with a visit to Garni, an architectural gem and an important symbol of Armenian culture and history. Admire the pagan temple, built in the style of ancient Greek architecture, which is unique to the region. You will also visit the Symphony of Stones, a natural wonder, where massive, perfectly shaped basalt columns rise dramatically from the ground, creating an almost musical visual experience.

Situated on a high plateau, the temple offers stunning views of the surrounding areas, including picturesque mountains and gorges. Next, head to Geghard, a majestic monastery partially carved into the rock.

This UNESCO World Heritage site captivates with its atmosphere, mystical silence, and stunning architecture. After exploring the cultural heritage, continue to Lake Sevan, one of the largest high-altitude lakes in the world, rightfully called the "Pearl of Armenia."

Admire the vibrant blue waters and surrounding mountains that create a striking view. Conclude your tour with a visit to Sevanavank, a monastery located on a peninsula, offering incredible views of the lake and its surroundings.
