Garni Tours

Garni tours will transport you back to Hellenistic times, to an era when people worshipped the gods of Olympus. You’ll tour the Temple of Garni, a pagan house of worship for the sun god Helios. It’s the only monument preserved in the territory of Armenia relating to the era of paganism, and considered one of the most unusual monuments in the entire country.

But your tour of Garni doesn’t end there – pay a visit to the Geghard Monastery Complex, famed for its well-preserved architecture, and pass through Charent's Arch, from which you can even see Mount Ararat on a clear day. A tour of Garni is an unforgettable tour of ancient history and culture!
