Good company

Glad to find this company, because we have made a really interesting package with them. I planned to travel to Armenia and needed a 5 days package. I had some preferences about the package but also wanted to hear some recommendations from them. I chose a double occupancy room and some places close to the capital, but their manager also recommended to take something very memorable and adventurous and during the discussion we ended up to choose the kayaking in a lake surrounded with unique mountains (Can't remember the name of it, sorry so much). They also advised to take a trip to Khor Virap and winery and add it to the package. Each of the days was so unique and unforgettable. Also we are in love with Sevan lake. Truely beauty. So impressed.
