Hi there! Let me take you on alternative routes around Armenia with top sights and show you charming passages, secret gardens and the best shopping districts while I share their history and tell you my favorite tales of the city. I am licensed tour guide since 2015 and I have extensive background and knowledge in the history of Armenia, which dates back to 3, 500 B. C. I graduated from the Yerevan State University, majoring in economics and literature, and then pursued my interests in tourism. My education prepared me very well for this profession as a tour guide. There are amazing tour packages in my offers and I am very flexible and open to customization. Looking forward to meeting you.

Take a walk through the top attractions of the Armenian capital; from Republic Square up the strikingly modern Cascades
Overview of your Yerevan tour
During our walking tour I can show you in detail fascinating places in Yerevan and have some great stories to tell. I want our tour to be fun and informative and I will gladly assist in any help you may need after your trip. We set off to explore and we begin our walk from beautiful Republic Square the (central town square in Yerevan which contains a pool with musical fountains) through the city center and up the strikingly modern Cascades for views of Biblical Mount Ararat (lost to Turkey in 1921). Walking along Pushkin street we visit old backyards which date back to 19th century and discover old wineries and dental clinics there. We visit Khachkars's park(known as an Armenian cross-stone khachkars are characteristic of Medieval Christian Armenian art) and plenty more! I look forward to showing you our great city. ***Remember that happiness is a way of travel, not a destination!***

Great tour by Tigran! He is very knowledgeable and passionate about showing his city. The tour includes both the famous sites and some less known local places. Tiguan is a very nice person and I highly recommend him for other visitors.

Tigran is a great guide! I booked a Yerevan tour, showcasing cultural sites, architecture, and history. We stopped at local restaurants and lesser known spots too. He's flexible, answers questions, and accommodates your preferences (within reason). I asked about going to Khor Virap and Geghard/Garni, and he sent an itinerary same-day. He plans everything in advance, with attention to detail. He planned lunch in a beautiful spot near Garni, which was ready on arrival. I will definitely re-book if I return!

Tigran was a phenomenal tour guide that showed me such a great time in Yerevan! I loved every minute of our tour and the beautiful city of Yerevan. He had interesting explanations for all the primary tourist attractions, but he also made sure to show me some of the hidden gems of Yerevan that I never would have uncovered had I been traveling alone. He also supplied great recommendations. We had a wonderful lunch together after our tour, as well. Anyone in Yerevan should take Tigran's tour; he's amazing!
