Tbilisi to Armenia Sanahin Akhtala Haghpat Group Day Tour

Discover Northern Armenia on a day trip from Tbilisi. Visit the Akhtala and Haghpat Monasteries, and explore the Sanahin Monastery.
Begin your journey with a visit to the Mother of Nine Sons Monument, a deeply moving memorial dedicated to a Georgian mother who lost all nine of her sons in the war with Persia. Her strength, grief, and sacrifice are immortalized in this powerful statue — a symbol of national pride and sorrow.

Next, travel back to the 12th century as you visit the stunning Akhtala Monastery. Famed for its vibrant frescoes and surrounded by dramatic fortress walls and ancient copper mines, this site offers a unique blend of spiritual and industrial history.

Perched above the Debed Canyon, Haghpat Monastery is one of Armenia’s most treasured landmarks. Wander through its serene courtyards, marvel at its stone artistry, and breathe in the peaceful energy of this masterpiece of medieval architecture.

On the way to Sanahin, make three fascinating stops: a 13th-century stone bridge with breathtaking views, the dramatic Debed Canyon and its natural beauty, and the Mikoyan Brothers Museum, featuring a real MiG-21 fighter jet and insights into Soviet aviation history.

Finally, visit Sanahin Monastery, a quiet sanctuary of wisdom and faith. Explore its ancient halls, intricate carvings, and peaceful setting as you wrap up your day in Armenia’s spiritual heart.
