From Yerevan: Khor Virap, Noravank & Tatev Monastery Tour

Explore Armenia's rich history on a guided tour from Yerevan. Visit Khor Virap, Noravank, and Tatev Monasteries, and ride the "Wings of Tatev" aerial tramway over the Vorotan River gorge.
Begin your tour at 8:30 AM from the local operator's head office in Yerevan. From there, depart for the southern part of Armenia, beginning with Khor Virap.

Khor Virap is the most famous pilgrimage site in Armenia, as it is directly connected with the adoption of Christianity in the country. Before converting King Tridates the 3rd to Christianity, Saint Gregory was imprisoned in the dungeon under the present-day church. Khor Virap monastery was built in the 17th century. From the monastery, admire the stunning view of the Biblical Mount Ararat.

Pass a narrow road surrounded by rocks of a hundred caves, and discover the Noravank Monastery. It is enshrined with fine architectural solutions, with its luxurious embellishments forming one of the brightest examples of Armenian architecture of the 13th century. Noravank consists of St. Karapet, St. Gregory the Illuminator's churches, and St. Astvatsatsin, a two-story church which is notable for its ideal constructive and sculptural work.

Take a break for lunch in a cozy restaurant surrounded by nature. Choose a meal from 3 available options, payable on the spot.

The next stop is the Tatev Monastery, which used to be the wealthiest medieval monastery in Armenia. Besides being a religious center, it was also the important strategical center of the Syunik Kingdom. Being situated on a naturally defended place, the monastery has always been an impregnable fortress.

Take the aerial tramway called the "Wings of Tatev", a 5.7-kilometer rope-way which was built within 11 months. It passes through a deep gorge of the Vorotan River, and is covered with lush forests. The tramway is supported by three towers between its two terminals, one terminal is on a hill overlooking the village of Halidzor, and the other is near the Tatev Monastery. Following the rope-way, your tour concludes with drop-off back at the operator's head office in Yerevan.
