Tour to Armenian Switzerland
During this tour you'll drive about 90 kilometres to the northeast of Armenia's vibrant capital city of Yerevan: the highway narrows into mountainous roads as you enter the Tavush region. During this experience, you'll visit some of the most important places, including the peninsula of Sevan and Sevanavank, the charming Dilijan town, Haghartsin and Lake Parz.
Your first stop is the picturesque Lake Sevan with its crystal clear water and stunning historic peninsula with the medieval monastery Sevanavank. The wonderful lake that surrounds the peninsula of Sevan and Sevanavank is one of the most beautiful places in Europe.
Your second stop is the charming town of Dilijan. Here you'll step back in time to explore the beautiful medieval church and khachkars of Haghartsin dating back to the Middle Ages. Then continue the tour through forests to incredible lake Parz to take panoramic photos of the gorgeous landscape at a height of 1,400 metres above sea level.

Nicknamed the ‘Blue Pearl’ this magnificent lake is the jewel of Armenia. The Wonderful Lake that surrounds the peninsula of Sevan and Sevanavank is one of the most beautiful places in Europe.
Dilijan National Park
Driving about 90 kilometres to the northeast of Armenia's vibrant capital city of Yerevan, the highway narrows into mountainous roads as you enter the Tavush region. Your second stop is the old charming town Dilijan. The unseasonably hot and humid summer has vacationers flocking to "Armenia's Switzerland" from across Armenia and bordering Georgia, Russia and Iran, as well as from various parts of Europe. They come seeking what affluent folks of Transcaucasia sought when they built their summer villas here -- the crisp, alpine mountain air of unspoiled forests, preserved national park and lakes and to bask in the natural healing springs. In fact, Dilijan mineral water is bottled and marketed throughout the country.
