Description

Spend an incredible day and unveil precious and historical Armenian sights. Armenia Tour cordially invites you to join the explorations of treasures in the South of Armenia. Cover Khor Virap sacred monastery, gift yourself with a medieval gem Noravank. Visit the Monastery of Tatev and take the longest reversible cable car in the world, from where the fantastic panorama over the Vorotan Gorge will amaze you. 

This private trip will take place by meeting the local driver-guide at the lobby of the centrally located hotel in Yerevan to immerse yourself in Armenia's heavenly sites. You will head to uncover three magical structures and panoramas of the country, hence, enjoy your first exploration on the list: Khor-Virap Monastery. The monastery is located close to the border between Armenia and Turkey. It is one of the most visited pilgrimage sites in Armenia which held a saint in a hole for 13 long years. Also here, you will be gifted a unique opportunity to have a closer look at the splendid Biblical Mount Ararat, together with an ancient Monastery in the foreground.

Later on, you will continue the exploratory mission to another treasure, Monastery of Noravank, located in the magnificent Amaghu Gorge, which attracts visitors with a fascinating view over the canyon and exceptional architectural solutions. Amaghu Gorge is sometimes twinned with American Grand Canyon. The red cliffs around the monastery make it a perfect location for capturing memorable photos. 

Afterwards, you will depart to the province of Syunik to take the longest cable car in the world and reach Tatev Monastery – the medieval masterpiece of Armenia. The ride lasts about 12 minutes, which is much shorter than the 40-minute drive, along the steep rolling road that guides the Vorotan gorge. On 23 October of 2010, it was inscribed into the Guinness World Record as the longest non-stop reversible aerial tramway in the world. The Monastic Complex of Tatev is an absolutely mind-blowing beauty, with an ancient monument and divine natural surroundings. It is a top-rated landmark and one of the most-visited attractions in Armenia. After covering all the main sights on our list, your day will be concluded by a comfortable transfer back to your hotel in Yerevan.
