Description
You will discover some of the most popular attractions of Armenia throughout this private tour.
We will visit Shaki waterfall, located in one of the cosiest corners of Syunik province, gloriously opening its striking beauty to all the admirers. We stop at Tatev monastery, which was once a spiritual center with outstanding scientific and political significance. The monastery is surrounded by beautiful nature. Here, one can take the World's longest ropeway without stopping – "Tatever".
Church bells were ringing loud in Tatev on October 16 of 2010, heralding the launch of a program to revive a medieval monastic complex and the opening of "Wings of Tatev Ropeway". The 5.7 km ropeway, built within 11 months, passes through a deep gorge of the River Vorotan and over hills, covered with lush forests. The tramway is supported by three towers between its two terminals. One terminal is on a hill, overlooking the village of Halidzor and the other is near Tatev Monastery, on the road to Tatev village. Two cabins operate at once, traveling in opposite directions. Within about 11 minutes a tramway cabin takes passengers, 30 at a time, from the village of Halidzor to the magnificent complex of Tatev.
We have a wine tasting in Areni village, one of the oldest settlements in Armenia, famous for its wines.
