Overview

A taste of Armenia in a few days, always based in Yerevan, the capital at the foot of Ararat. It starts with the city, from Republic Square to Armenian brandy, then Etchmiadzin, the seat of the Armenian Church, with the church of St Hripsime and the ruins of Zvartnots.

The Matenadarn holds thousands of ancient manuscripts. In the temple of Garni you hear a concert of the duduk, the Armenian flute with its melancholy sound, before the rock-cut monastery of Geghard. The last excursion takes you to Khor Virap, with the most famous view of Ararat, and to Noravank.

Flights from Italy included, private driver and Italian-speaking local guide, full board.
