3-Day Yerevan & Amberd Tour
Private tour, 2 nights, our own guide and vehicle
About this trip
3-Day Yerevan & Amberd Tour is a private, 3-day journey through Yerevan · Amberd, run by our own guides and drivers rather than subcontracted to a local agency. The world’s oldest Christian nation: rock-cut monasteries under Mount Ararat.
You travel as your own group, no strangers, no fixed coach departure. The itinerary below is our recommended shape; a consultant can move a day, add a night or change a hotel before you commit to anything.
Pace: Short days, one base, little driving.
Day by day
The outline of this trip. Your consultant sends the full day-by-day programme, with timings, once your booking is confirmed.
-
Day1
Arrive Yerevan, then the Yerevan City Tour.
Yerevan is built from pink volcanic stone, which is why Armenians call it the Pink City. See it from the top of the Cascade, a giant stairway of gardens and modern art with Mount Ararat on the horizon on a clear day, then walk the squares and café streets below. The day also includes the Genocide Memorial, the most moving place in the city.
Overnight in Yerevan -
Day2
Amberd & Saghmosavank Tour.
High-country Armenia. A hillside of giant stone letters celebrates the Armenian alphabet, a monastery stands on the lip of a deep canyon, and Amberd, a fortress at about 2,300 metres on the slopes of Mount Aragats, is as remote and windswept as it looks. Higher still, Lake Kari is often ringed with snow well into summer.
Overnight in Yerevan -
Day3
Free morning, transfer to the airport for departure.

How group size changes the price
A private tour splits the vehicle, the guide and the driver across your group, so the per-person price falls as the group grows. These are live figures for this exact itinerary.

Good to know
- Visas
- It depends on your passport: see visa rules for Armenia, each linked to its government source. We will tell you what we know, but the requirement is yours to check against your own passport.
- Best time to go
- May–June and September–October. We run this trip outside those months too, prices and conditions change, so ask.
- Getting there
- International flights are not included. Most travellers fly into Yerevan; we meet you at the airport.
- Confirming
- The price you see is real, but it is a quotation until a consultant checks hotel and guide availability for your dates, normally within 24 hours.
Questions we get asked
Is this a group tour with other people?
No. Every trip on this site is private: your group, your vehicle, your guide, your dates. Nobody else joins you.
Can the itinerary be changed?
Yes. This is our recommended shape for 3 days, not a fixed product. Add a night, drop a day trip, change a hotel tier, a consultant reprices it before you commit.
Is the price per person or total?
Prices show per person based on two people sharing a double room, with the total alongside. Solo travellers and larger groups price differently, the table above shows how.
When do I pay?
Nothing is taken through this website. A consultant confirms availability, sends a written quote with the payment schedule, and only then do you decide.
What if the weather closes a mountain road?
It happens, mostly outside the months above. We offer the nearest equivalent we can arrange and explain any difference in cost, either way.
