The Best Tour Agencies in Armenia
Last Updated on: 7th August 2020, 12:06 pm
Are you planning a trip to Armenia soon? When I first booked my trip to Armenia I had no idea how I was going to see all of the best monasteries and attractions in Armenia on my own. I only had 12 days and wanted to experience as much as possible! After researching my options, I realized traveling with a private tour agency in Armenia would help me — as a solo female traveler — travel safely and efficiently in Armenia. Working with a travel agency within Armenia is more affordable than you might think and absolutely worth it!
I had a wonderful experience!
I’ll also give a detailed review of my experience as a solo female traveler using private tour agencies in Armenia.
Arites Travel is the best all around tour agency in Armenia. They offers anything you can imagine with unique tour packages perfectly catered to your interests.
I also traveled with Arahet Travel , which I believe is the best tour company in Armenia for specifically religious tours and pilgrimages , and with a very amazing tour to Tatev. Arahet has been offering pilgrimages for almost 20 years and are experts at religious tourism.
There are so many Armenia tour packages to choose from, so I’m here to give an honest review of two Armenia travel agencies that I worked with when I visited in May. Spoilers: I really loved both of them! And I definitely think it is worth it to travel around Armenia with a professional, licensed Armenia tour agency.
What is the best way to see Armenia?
Armenia is increasingly a destination for backpackers because a) Armenia is awesome , b) Armenia is affordable and c) there are plenty of public transportation options.
Can you plan an independent trip to Armenia using only public transportation to get around? Yes, you can!
And that might be a great choice for you! Armenia is budget-friendly and there are bus-like marshrutkas leaving from the capital city, Yerevan, almost any time and going almost anywhere. This is one of the reasons I advise you to stay in Yerevan ….the other is also that it’s simply a beautiful, modern city!
There are lots of pros to using public transportation to get around Armenia. The biggest is cost. Marshrutkas and even shared taxis can be very affordable options throughout Armenia. There are enough of them, too, that it can be surprisingly convenient to travel around this way!
When I was planning my trip to Armenia as a solo female traveler I was told that Armenian public transportation is perfectly safe, and many people (especially young people) speak English in Armenia. Still…I had a limited amount of time and there was so much I wanted to see!
I also wanted to do more than simply see some of Armenia’s best monasteries and religious sites: I wanted to learn all about their history, hear their stories, and really get to know Armenian culture.
Why use an Armenian Tour Agency?
1. armenian tour companies have knowledgeable guides.
To me, the number 1 reason to use an Armenian Tour Agency to travel in Armenia is that by doing so you have the opportunity to travel with a knowledgable, English-speaking guide.
The guides on my trip were incredible.
They knew so much about the religious history and culture of Armenia. I can honestly say I would have learned 1/10th of what I did had I traveled around the country via marshrutka. My guides welcomed every last question I had. Because I have a strong interest in religious history, monasteries, and religious art, the guides that I had were picked due to their knowledge in this area, and it was amazing to point to one particular part of an Armenian khachkar and ask about it — and get a knowledgeable answer!
The guides were very sensitive in knowing just how much information really enhanced visiting a site or museum, and what was just too much! I never felt overwhelmed, but truly informed. I was able to draw connections between each place and the wider history of Armenia.
I was also able to ask my guides about their personal connections to the sites and to Armenian history that we discussed, which was moving and very meaningful.
I can’t imagine having walked around with my eyes down on a book or on my phone looking things up! To be able to keep my eyes up, soaking in the beauty, listening and asking questions, was a gift I can’t put into adequate words.
2. Safe drivers
A reputable tour company in Armenia, such as Arites or Arahet, provides a safe driver and safe vehicle.
This can’t be underestimated. In general, Armenian roads are very safe, and some people even choose to self-drive. There are some rather harrowing roads mixed in, though!
The driving style in Armenia is also a bit different, with lots of fast passing.
I was so thankful for a safe driver. Having a separate tour guide and driver was great, as well, because I felt I could ask questions about what we were passing freely without distracting the driver.
3. Using an Armenian Tour Agency can Save you Time
While public transportation is plentiful in Armenia, if you are like me and are using your time off work to travel there, then you likely want to see a lot in a short amount of time.
Nothing can surpass hiring a tour agency to do this. Because a tour guide and agency can tailor-make an itinerary to your liking and can organize the trip so you can see many things in a similar area in one day, you are able to see so much more.
Arahet travel organized my trip to Gyumri, Armenia’s “second city”, and added a monastery to the itinerary that is impossible to get to via public transportation. I hadn’t heard of it in my research about Armenia, but was happy to go as they suggested it! That monastery, Marmashen, became one of my favorites of the whole trip! I would never have been able to get there in the time I had if I hadn’t worked with an Armenia tour agency.
4. Tour Companies Provide Unique Experiences
While I was in Armenia, I got to ride horses at a very cool Horse Riding Club with a social mission. I got to meet one of the best blacksmiths in Armenia and even watch him make me a spoon! I got to meet a Bishop in the Armenian Church and talk with him about church history and theology, and meet the Priest that oversees the most important museum in the Armenian church, at Etchmiadzin.
A staff member at Arites travel even invited me out dancing with her and her sister to experience an Armenian folk dance flash mob!
These experiences would have been impossible or nearly impossible to experience without a tour agency with contacts all over the country.
5. An Armenian Tour Company Helps you Get to hard-to-reach places
It is very difficult to visit some of the best sites in Armenia without working with a tour company. Some group tours, such as these tours, offer trips that make stops at some of the more remote places, such as Areni Cave – where the World’s Oldest Shoe was discovered. However, some of these places get crowded when traveling in a group. Some of them aren’t readily accessible via public transportation. And some would take so long that it wouldn’t be worth it unless you had a month in the country.
But with a car, driver, and guide — and an expert itinerary — places like the Armenian Stonehenge, Karahunj, are accessible and well worth a visit!
6. Seamless, Stress-Free Travel
Every day I had a tour, the driver and guide picked me up at my hotel. There was plenty of bottled water in the car (though the water in Armenia is potable and safe to drink). We were able to take plenty of stops for snacks and restroom breaks. At the end of each day, I was dropped back off at my hotel – or wherever I wanted.
Traveling, even as a solo traveler, was so stress-free. While this trip was not relaxing on a beach with a drink in one hand and a book with another, I actually came back really refreshed and relaxed because everything was taken care of beautifully.
7. Great Photographs
When you are traveling with a large group, or completely on your own, it can be hard to either crop out all of the people, or get anything other than selfies! I really appreciate that the guides and drivers at Arites and Arahet travel were so willing to help me take photos. And because we were often alone at some of the most beautiful sites, I could get amazing pictures without dodging the crowds!
What is the best Armenia Tour Agency?
While I was in Armenia, I traveled with two different tour agencies. Both are Armenia travel agencies based out of Yerevan, and both provide comprehensive tour planning: from drivers & guides, to plenty of bottled water, incredible meals & even some help taking pictures of yourself at the beautiful sites!
Below is my review of each company, and why I truly thought both were fabulous.
Arahet Travel
Arahet Travel specializes in religious tours and pilgrimages. If that’s your style of travel, then I 100% recommend them. They offer religious tours with a particularly deep knowledge of religious culture and history. Arahet is well equipped to organize tours for church groups or other groups interested in seeing Armenia’s greatest religious sites.
I went to Tatev with Arahet because it felt important to me for that trip to feel like a spiritual pilgrimage. My guide through Arahet is the daughter of an Armenian priest, and not only knew Armenian religious history in a “textbook” way, but knew so much about the Armenian Apostolic Church from living it and had a true passion for sharing about it. Ararat’s tour offerings include the ability to offer spiritual tours around Holy Week in Armenia, pilgrimages to various monasteries to attend services, and meetings and conversation with officials from the Armenian Apostolic Church.
Due to their specialized focused and many years of experience, Arahet Travel is the best tour agency in Armenia for religious tour and pilgrimages to Armenia.
Arites Travel
Arites is a newer tour company in Armenia. On their website they write, “AriTes travel is first of all its people. People who know all about hospitality and who are able to tell fascinating stories about what they love” I can attest that this is completely true. Every single person I interacted with from Arites was so professional, warm, and welcoming. Arites travel also offers religious and spiritual tours, and did a wonderful job tailoring my time with them to these interests. I did one of their 3-day religious tours, which was a great length, allowing me to see some of the best religious sites in Armenia.
While Arites travel offers wonderful religious tours, they also offer food-focused tours in Armenia, craft-and-culture focused tours, and anything that you can dream up!
Arites travel is, in my opinion, the best tour agency in Armenia if you are looking for an agency that can cater to any style of travel or interests. Arites has fabulous guides, safe drivers, and innovative itineraries. I also can’t say enough about their leadership and staff — so warm, friendly, and welcoming! And English-speaking, which made the whole process very smooth.
What does it cost to travel with an Armenia tour agency?
Traveling with a private guide and tour company in Armenia is very reasonable, especially when compared to tours in the USA and Western Europe!
It is most affordable for families and groups traveling together. It is least affordable for solo travelers — typically you pay per day or per tour for the car, driver, guide, and entrance fees. It is the best investment when you fill up all the seats in the car!
A full-day tour typically runs around $150-200 a day, per vehicle + the cost for meals. The tour companies above can arrange wonderful meals for you, which I recommend. A 2-day trip to Tatev, which is a long-haul drive + many stops along the way will run around $450 in a private vehicle. If you can bring 4 people however — this works out to $150 -ish per person, which is less than I’ve paid for day tours here in the USA to see one of the world’s most incredible and remote monasteries.
A wonderful hotel, such as the Silk Road Hotel in Yerevan, will run around $45-50 USD a night. Food is also very affordable in Armenia and, of course, great wine! Most monasteries are free to visit, as well, which can help with costs. Some, such as Zvartnots and the Garni Temple, do require a ticket, which your tour guide will arrange for you.
Are you ready to start planning your trip to Armenia?
There is so much to see and so many things to do in Armenia! And if you are looking for the best tour agency in Armenia, look no further than Arites or Arahet. Traveling with a tour agency means you will have a seamless experience, and see so much more than you otherwise would have.
It’s no secret that Armenia was my favorite destination of 2019. I hope it will be your favorite of 2020!

Follow Sacred Wanderings on Social Media!
Flights and Trains – I know everyone recommends SkyScanner…but I’ve never loved it. I simply use Google Flights for most of my searches and set alerts for routes I’m interested in to nab cheap flights. Travel Insurance – It’s so important to have peace of mind that you are covered for any health needs, accidents, or even travel delays when you are on a trip. I recommend: – Safety Wing insurance . It’s great for short trips and for digital nomads traveling for months or years at a time. Their rates are seriously affordable. I simply wont leave home these days without a Safety Wing Travel Insurance policy. Credit Cards – I am a big fan of the American Expresss Platinum Card and have used them for over 6 years now. It offers 5x points on all flights (any airline!) and hotels booked through Amex Travel, built-in travel insurance , access to the biggest network of airport lounges – it’s a no-brainer despite the annual fee! Apply for the American Express Platinum Card here and for a limitied time get 80,000 bonus points (that’s easily enough for a round-trip flight to Europe from the USA!) on signup. Language Learning – Want to brush up on your French, Spanish or another language before traveling? I’ve made huge progress (and had a lot of fun) using private tutors through italki . With rates as low as $8 per hour (seriously!) and friendly, highly experienced tutors you can make quick progress and have fun while doing it. Sign up for italki here to check out their teachers.

Individually designed armenia tours.
. We gladly design tours for our travelers who prefer individual planning and have specific requirements for their travel experiences. We take into consideration any specific needs and create an itinerary based on that. Individual tours are offered to small and large groups of tourists, which have various purposes, such as medical, cultural, pilgrimage, etc. When creating these tours, the age, fitness and health, travel preferences of our tourists are the top priority for us, and any activity is carefully selected to make the tourist’s stay as comfortable and memorable as possible.
Pre-packaged tours
. Armenia, being a small country, is very rich in natural and historical landscapes. Some of them are located very close to the capital, Yerevan, where most tourists prefer to spend the night. Even distant locations can be easily reached during one day. Therefore, we have designed 1-2 day tours for groups to popular sights that ensure the discovery of Garni, the only standing pagan temple (1st century A.D.), St. Echmiadzin, the holy capital of Armenia with one of the oldest Christian temples in the world (4th century A.D.), Geghard, temple of the Holy Roman Emperor (4th century A.D.), and the temple of the Holy Roman Emperor (4th century A.D.). ), Geghard, cave temple, the oldest winery in the world at Areni (over 5000 BC), Lake Sevan, the largest drinking water reservoir in the region and the wonder of the Armenian highlands, thousand year old observatory, Tatev monastic complex with its engineering miracles that modern scientists still do not explain, etc.
Cultural Tours
Our country is rightly called as an “Open Air Museum” where you can observe, feel, live and experience the millennial history. Here in Armenia you can see pre-Christian history and modern architecture, traditional costumes and European night life, traditional wine making caves (more than 5000 BC) and modest wine culture in one place. Special attention should be paid to the Armenian cuisine which has living recipes from time immemorial.
There are numerous museums, theaters, experimental cultural centers, concert halls, fine arts exhibition centers where you can enjoy performances of Armenian and international artists.
Hiking tours in Armenia
Being a mountainous country, Armenia is a paradise for hikers. Mountains of varying difficulty can be found here. One of the most important aspects of hiking tours: safety, is easily ensured by our experienced and certified instructors.
Extreme excursions
Unforgettable extreme tours are very popular in Armenia. High mountains and fast mountain rivers, peaks of varying difficulty, wild winds, snowy slopes and the combination of all these make extreme tourism one of the most sought after among tourists from all countries. You can go mountaineering, paragliding, windsurfing, extreme skiing and many other types of extreme tourism in Armenia.
Traditionally, Armenia was one of the main ski destinations in the Soviet Union. Later, after Armenia’s independence, this tradition was revived. Although the skiing period is not long, up to 4 months, during the winter you can experience unforgettable skiing.
Wine routes in Armenia
In three different regions of Armenia grapes are grown and various types of wines are made from them. The uniqueness of Armenian wine is not only the tradition, but also the soil, grape types, agriculture, highland climate, sunshine and many other factors.
Wine tours are extremely interesting time travels where ancient meets modern, where grapes speak the language of wine and humans, where every part of the route is a discovery of history, archeology, culture, cuisine and the people behind it.
We have assembled an all-star team of knowledgeable and service-oriented guides and staff members, who save no effort to make any visit to Armenia the most memorable and enjoyable one.

Numerous destinations and hiking trips reveal the elements of Armenian identity for travelers. They discover the secrets of “Vordan Karmir”- precious red paint recipe lost many centuries ago, after they visit old wineries in Areni where our ancestors started making wine 6.000 years ago.
We offer you to try the most interesting bike route to Garni Temple. It is a pagan temple of Hellenistic style (1st century A.D.) and used to be the residence of Armenian kings. Garni Temple rises with all its brilliance on the right bank of Azat River. Owing to the skills of the mastered architect, this temple is remarkable for its illumination, lightness and the elegance of ornaments.
At 50km drive to the north from Yerevan Tsakhkadzor welcomes tourists all year round with its lavish flower fields and thick silver pine-tree forests. In winter times, this resort is a big favorite among Russian and European tourists and is renowned for being one of the best ski resorts in the region. Visitors are fair to compare with Swiss Alps.
Armenian tour agencies show tourists the most outstanding and superb selection from the rich choice of national architectural traditions. Monastery complexes enchant everyone with their beauty and the exceptional harmony of architectural design making a complete harmony with the wonderful mountain landscapes. Countryside tours usually lead us to:
1. Lori Fort (Berd in Arm.)- The ruins of the ancient city Lori Berd, standing above the canyon of Lori preserves its greatness over time. Founded in the second half of 10th century it was once the ancient capital of Tashir-Dzoraget Kingdom. Lori Berd erects on a high triangular plateau and was unapproachable over centuries.
2. Haghpat and Sanahin Monasteries – The monasteries of Sanahin and Haghpat are famed not only for their exceptional architecture, but also for their breathtaking residing on the hillsides. These monasteries are included in the list of World Heritage by UNESCO. Sanahin and Haghpat Monasteries built in the 10th-13th centuries are embraced by Lori’s ambient and picturesque mountains. From Sanahin Bridge the road leads up the hill to the village Haghpat; one of the major centers of spiritual life in Armenia in the Middle Ages. Haghpat is located on a mountain plateau, surrounded by canyons. The monastery is notable for the brilliant ideas of its monuments’ framework.
3. Zvartnots Temple- built in the 7th century by the Patriarch. A magnificent Cathedral, the evidence of high level of development and cultural potential of Armenian architects.

The Silk Road Travel Guide
Train travel in Armenia
Armenia’s isolation due to the cold war with Azerbaijan and Turkey means there is only 1 meaningful year-round train connection: the night train to Tbilisi. It runs to Tbilisi on even days of the month and to Yerevan on odd days. It takes 10 hours; just enough time to catch a good sleep, but with an early-morning wake-up call from the border guards if going to Georgia.
In summer (roughly from mid-June until the end of September), the train runs daily and continues all the way to Batumi.
If you want to see the scenery and get there quicker, take a marshrutka – it only takes 6 hours, and it is a bit cheaper. If you would rather save money on accommodation, meet locals and make the most of your daylight hours, take the train.
Local trains
Beyond the train to Georgia, there are daily local trains connecting Yerevan with Gyumri (3 hrs), Ararat (1 hr), Araks (1 hr 15), Hrazdan (1 hr 30) and Yeraskh (1 hr 30). As slower, cheaper alternatives to the ubiquitous marshrutka, these are mostly of interest to train lovers, sniffers of couleur locale and slow travel enthusiasts.
If you are that type, you might even make it out to the train station of Akhuryan ( map ).
Summer train to Lake Sevan
Finally, there is also a summer service from Yerevan to Lake Sevan. The line to Hrazdan (1 hr 30) gets extended to Sevan (2 hr 20) and Shorzha (3 hr 30) from approximately mid-June until the end of September. For the exact timetable, inform at the train station. To get an idea of the schedule, here is what happened in previous years.
2016 : Started operations on June 16th. On working days the train ran as far as Sevan, while on weekends it went all the way to Shorzha station.
2013 : Started July 7, every day except Wednesday. Went to Shorzha every day.
Buying tickets
Timetables and prices
You can find timetables at the Armenian Railways website, where you will also find a price list . T-Armenia is also a good place to start.
The train to Tbilisi is no longer as dirt-cheap anymore as it was up until 2010, but to call it expensive is a stretch. Local trains cost less than 1$.
Trains are not immune to being delayed. Do not plan tight connection times.
Seat choice
The daily commuter trains have first (plush seats) and second class (wooden seats) seating wagons. The Tbilisi night train has the standard Soviet classes:
- platzkart (reserved – bunks in open wagon) – around 20 euro
- kupe (compartment – 4-berth wagon) – around 30 euro
- SV/Lyux (first-class – 2-berth wagon) – around 40 euro
For more on how to choose between these options, read the overview page on the Silk Road by train for seat buying, train enjoying and route planning advice.
There is always space on the train, so booking in advance is not necessary. Online booking is possible since 2018, we await your reports on functionality.
You can always buy a ticket at the train station if the internet offers no solace. If you do need advance booking, you need to ask a travel agency in Armenia to do it for you.
The train experience
Train stations
There are 2 train stations of note in Yerevan. All trains but one arrive and depart from Yerevan central on Tigran Metz, but the Hradzan-Sevan-Shorzha line departs elsewhere.
Until 2005, this train departed from the Arabkir station, located at the top of the Cascade monument, but now it starts from the tiny Almast platform before stopping at the bigger, staffed station of Kanaker , both north of the city center. Get a ticket at Kanaker before getting on the train.
Yerevan central train station
The central Yerevan train station is located on Tigran Metz Avenue. During the daytime the parking area is filled with buses, taxis and cars for hire to regions and Tbilisi/Batumi.
The ticket office works until the last train has left. The left luggage office is located on the train side of the building, left as you exit the main rotunda. They have both lockers and a left luggage room. 24 hours a day service.
Yerevan – Tbilisi sleeper train
Like elsewhere in the former Soviet Union, this train is enjoyable and rewarding for those who know how to appreciate the caged rattle of the slow train. More extensive coverage on how to ride these beasts can be found on the Silk Road by train overview page .
It is a standard FSU train experience, with basic and more luxurious compartments, a samovar for hot water, curious fellow passengers, … A restaurant car is attached, but it offers only basic food and drinks. You are better off bringing your own food.
You will get sheets, a pillow and a blanket. Luggage storage is under the bottom bunk. Toilets can be nasty or clean, it depends. Do not forget to bring your own toilet paper!
