Bari Galust! Welcome to Armenia! Situated in a unique position where Europe meets Asia, the Republic of Armenia boasts a unique cultural identity unlike anywhere else in the world. The dazzling natural scenery, ancient historical tradition and warm hospitable people contradict the tumultuous past of the 20th century that many people associate with Armenia. Instead, travellers find a country that although tiny, boasts extreme variety with much to discover. Known as the “cradle of civilization”, the country is replete with incredible historical sites and relics. Every Gunyah Armenia package holiday was created by local people with unique authentic experiences.
The capital city, Yerevan, has an energetic art scene, with many galleries, museums, and an upbeat café culture. However, it’s not just the culture that mesmerizes travellers. The pristine scenery and impressive natural sights like Lake Sevan and Lake Transcaucasia, charming countryside villages like Goris and Dilijan, and ancient fortresses and monasteries that speckle the countryside are completely breathtaking. And the relationships forged with the local Armenians who will graciously take you in as family, will make the experience perhaps most memorable. Our Gunyah Armenia vacations are handcrafted by local people, designed to connect travellers directly with the locals.
