The private tour to Sevan, Sevanavank, Dilijan National Park and Haghartsin lasts around 8 hours, and the sites are located in the Gegharkunik and Tavush regions.

1. The first stop is about one hour’s drive from Yerevan, at Lake Sevan, which is the largest natural lake in Armenia and in the entire Caucasian region. Twenty-eight rivers flow into Lake Sevan and only one river flows out, making it one of Armenia’s natural watery wonders. 

2. The second stop is Sevan Peninsula, which was once an island, but due to the artificial lowering of the water level, it became a peninsula. On top of it stands Sevanavank, founded in the 9th century by Mariam, the sister of Armenian King Ashot Yerkat.

3. The next stop is Dilijan National Park, established in 1958, covering an area of 34,000 hectares, with about 94 percent of its territory covered by forest. During the tour, you will walk through nature and have the chance to feed the deer.

4. The last stop is Haghartsin Monastery, situated in the northeastern part of Armenia. The monastery was founded between the 10th and 13th centuries, under the patronage of the Bagratuni dynasty.
