This tour was great overall! It was a bit of a patchy start, as the meetup instructions weren’t quite accurate. Luckily, we spotted a few others waiting down the street and assumed they were part of the tour which thankfully they were. As described, it’s a long day, but it’s a fantastic way to see several key sights in Armenia. Our driver and guide, Pata, was excellent. He was knowledgeable and had a good sense of the group’s energy engaging without being overbearing. I would recommend the tour!
