Sevan, Sevanavank, Dilijan, Haghartsin & Goshavank Day Tour

Start this day tour by visiting the blue Pearl of Armenia – Lake Sevan, recognized as a national treasure in the country. It is the largest lake of the Caucasus and Armenia, at an altitude of 1900 m above sea level. At the shore of a small island visit the Monastery complex of Sevanavank. After the water level fell about 20 m, the island transformed into a peninsula. You can take your lunch there in Sevan, which provides approximately 90% of the fish and 80% of the crayfish catch of Armenia.. Next stop is the Armenian Switzerland, known as Dilijan. It is one of the most important resorts in Armenia. You’ll have a little city tour in the old town of Dilijan which includes Sharambeyan street in the center and visit the craftsman’s workshops, galleries and museums. Next, visit the two monastery complexes from the 13th century, Haghartsin and Goshavank, recently restored by a Muslim Sheikh from the United Arab Emirates. The monastery is easily accessible through paved roads and has a large parking area, a gift shop, bakery, and other facilities. Return to Yerevan.
