Vayots Dzor tours from Yerevan

Vayots Dzor tour routes connect places with different subjects to explore. Noravank stands in a gorge of red volcanic rock, Areni Winery produces red, white and pomegranate wines, and Jermuk has a gallery with mineral water fountains. These facts help distinguish the province's stops, but each tour combines them differently. Some day itineraries link Khor Virap, Noravank and Areni, while others also include Jermuk. A separate group route pairs the Gnishik Gorge with Noravank. For walking, the Yeghegis itinerary lists a hike to Smbataberd and a visit to Zorats Church. The two day Syunik and Jermuk program extends beyond the province to Goris and Tatev, so its full route deserves a separate comparison. Decide whether you want a monastery and winery combination, a Jermuk visit or an itinerary with hiking. Then check the named stops rather than assuming that every tour includes all these places.
