Armenia Discovery - Armenia

A true hidden gem, Armenia is packed with ancient history, breathtaking landscapes, and cultural traditions unlike anywhere else. This seven-day adventure starts and ends in Yerevan but takes you deep into the countryside, uncovering bucket-list-worthy experiences along the way. Stand in Republic Square and learn how its turbulent past shaped modern Armenia, immerse yourself in tradition with a Duduk masterclass and an inside look at Armenian carpet weaving, and connect with inspiring women at the WINNET Goris Foundation. From wandering centuries-old monasteries to exploring charming towns, every moment is a chance to bond with fellow travellers and locals alike. This is Armenia — authentic, unforgettable, and waiting to be explored.

Discover the historical significance of Republic Square before visiting the Megerian Carpet Museum to enjoy the rich traditions of the Armenian rug weaving culture.
