Armenia Day Trip

We'll meet at the Avlabari metro station in Tbilisi at 8:30 am. From there we'll head to the border to see notable places in Armenia, one of the first Christian civilizations.

First stop is Ajtala Monastery, where we will appreciate its 13th-century architecture and impressive frescoes, notable examples of Byzantine art. You will also view the caves and copper foundation factories nearby.

Next, we visit the Haghpat Monastery, a 10th-century masterpiece of medieval architecture that has withstood natural and human challenges.

At around 1:30 pm, we'll pause for lunch at a local family's house, providing an opportunity to taste traditional cuisine.

At 4 pm, we'll continue to Sanahin Monastery, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, along with a visit to a copper foundation factory reflecting the Soviet era. Our final stop will be the Mikoyan Brothers Museum, featuring the original MiG 21 aircraft.
