Armenian Seasons

Armenian Seasons · Yerevan

One country, four Armenias.

We run small, local-led trips through Armenia and design each route around the time of year you travel — because a spring in Dilijan and a winter on Aragats are two different countries. Ten travellers at most, a driver-guide who grew up here, and no rushing.

Plan a trip

Pick a season, not just a place

The route changes with the calendar. Here is roughly what each part of the year opens up.

Apr – Jun

Spring

Green highlands, full waterfalls in Dilijan, wildflowers on the slopes. The best light of the year for the monasteries.

Jul – Aug

Summer

Beach days and boat trips on Lake Sevan, cool escapes into the forests of Tavush, long evenings in Yerevan.

Sep – Oct

Autumn

The wine harvest in Areni, red vineyards in Vayots Dzor, clear skies for the ride to Tatev. Our quietest, warmest weeks.

Nov – Mar

Winter

Snow on the monasteries, skiing at Tsaghkadzor, steaming khash and the New Year season in the capital.

A few of our routes

Trips we run again and again

Fixed departures in season, plus private versions any week of the year. Every route can be shortened, extended, or combined.

3 days · classic

Yerevan, Garni & Geghard

The capital at your own pace, the temple at Garni above the gorge, and the rock-cut monastery of Geghard — with a lavash-baking stop on the way back.

4 days · north

Sevan & the Dilijan forests

Blue Lake Sevan, the peninsula churches, and two slow days in the woods and old streets of Dilijan and Haghartsin.

5 days · south

Tatev & the wine road

The long cable car to Tatev, the Areni cave and cellars, and the red autumn hills of Vayots Dzor down toward the south.

Small groups only

Ten travellers at most, often fewer. One van, one guide, no numbered flags to follow.

Local from the ground up

Our guides are from here. The stops that aren't on the map are usually the ones you remember.

Built for the season

We tell you honestly what a given month is good for — and what it isn't — before you book.
