You will wander through the backstreets of Yerevan and soak up the charm of a non-tourist city. You will see the place where the comedy "Woe from Wit" premiered in the presence of the author.
At the end of this walk, you will admire the view of the capital from a bird's-eye view, and if you are lucky with clear weather, then also Mount Ararat.
Blue Route: A classic immersive tour, Yerevan's main "must haves"
But it's not only about the history of the city. The guide will reveal numerous secrets and give invaluable life hacks.
And as a bonus, you will receive a master class on creating real Armenian carpets using ancient technology.
On each of the two routes, the guide will advise:
