Customer Reviews
Me and my boyfriend had such a great time at the tour to Tatev monastery, Wing of Tatev, Cave village and Areni Wine tasting!! Our guide was spotless, very knowledgeable, friendly and efficient. I apologise for forgetting her name 😔 I give to this tour 5/5 stars for the tour guide, the places we visited, the booking process at the agency's office and the whole organisation. The only reason I gave 4/5 in total is because of the driver. I was seriously scared for my life. Such a horrible way of driving!!
It was a wonderful tour with an amazing and excellent tour guide Marie. Marie is knowledgeable about the history and excellent at delivering the information. The tour is well timed and we were engaged throughout. The baking lessons were the spice on the cake. I ate delicious trout fish at the hotel by the temple🤗 thanks too to Adush for the great driving. The time management is excellent 🙏🏼
Absolutely loved today’s trip with One Way Tour! 💙 From the turquoise waters of Lake Sevan to the peaceful monasteries of Goshavank and Haghartsin, everything was perfectly organized. Great guide Hayk, smooth ride, stunning views — Armenia at its best. 🇦🇲
