Gyumri tours from Yerevan

Gyumri is the centre of Shirak Province, and its city visits bring together churches and museum stops. Around Vardanants Square, the sights include the Holy Saviour and Saint Nshan churches. The Dzitoghtsonts House Museum occupies a mansion built from Shirak's red tuff and presents urban life and the city's architecture. These are different ways to approach Gyumri: through its public landmarks or through the spaces and objects of a former home. The group routes from Yerevan combine a city tour with either Harichavank or Marmashen and name the Black Fortress among their stops. Private itineraries also list the house museum, with combinations that include Harichavank, Marmashen or Aruch. Compare the actual stops to decide whether your priority is the churches, the museum or a route that adds a monastery. Gyumri also appears in longer private journeys, so check its place within the complete program before choosing a trip.
