Beskrivning
Discover Southern Armenia on a guided tour from Yerevan. Visit Khor Virap, taste local wines in Areni, and explore the breathtaking Noravank and Tatev Monasteries along with Shaki Waterfall.
Begin your full-day Southern Armenia tour with a comfortable pickup from your hotel in Yerevan. Set off towards your first stop, Khor Virap Monastery, located at the foot of Mount Ararat. Learn about the rich Christian history of this iconic pilgrimage site and enjoy dramatic views of the biblical mountain.
Next, travel through scenic valley landscapes to the famous wine-producing village of Areni. Stop at the Hin Areni Winery to learn about Armenia’s ancient winemaking heritage, explore the production facility, and sample local wines made from regional grape varieties.
Continue your route through a narrow red-rock gorge to Noravank Monastery, a breathtaking 13th-century complex known for its unique two-story architecture and detailed stone reliefs set against towering crimson cliffs.
Heading further south, stop at the mesmerizing Shaki Waterfall, nestled in a quiet natural gorge. Take time to relax, take photos, and listen to the soothing cascade of pristine mountain water.
Finally, arrive at the spectacular Tatev Monastery, perched high on a basalt plateau above the deep Vorotan Gorge. Experience the Guinness World Record-holding "Wings of Tatev" cable car as you glide over the canyon for unrivaled aerial views before exploring the historic 9th-century monastic complex. After a day filled with memorable experiences, relax on the comfortable return drive to Yerevan.
