Experience Armenia - Day Trip from Tbilisi
If you're staying in Tbilisi, this tour by Kartveli tours is perfect for you to explore the neighboring country of Armenia.
During the tour we will visit the Northern part of Armenia, which has more than 65% of the forests of the country. This region in the medieval times was the religious and educational center. In the soviet times, it was an industrial city with mines all over the place. We will hear about both sides of the story during the tour.
We will also enjoy a lunch cooked especially for us in a local restaurant or a family upon your request/preference.
