Full description

Your picturesque trip to Lake Sevan starts from Tbilisi; you will be picked up at your hotel and driven to Dilijan town. Visit Lake Parz. It is a small lake located in Dilijan National Park east of Dilijan in Armenia. The lake was formed by natural climatic changes. "Parz" in Armenian means clear. Take a short walk to Sharambeyan Street. Situated within the national park, the area, popularly known as "Little Switzerland" for its forested hills and picturesque houses made of stone and wood, remains home to many Armenian visual artists, musicians, and filmmakers. Browse through the small shops or discover an art gallery and museum. Continue your tour to Lake Sevan - the Jewel of Armenia, known as the Geghama Sea. It is one of the largest high-mountainous freshwater lakes in the world. Here, visit the Sevanavank Monastery, the most prominent landmark of medieval Armenian architecture.

Great day trip to get a glimpse of Armenia. This trip involves a drive through the mountains to Lake Sevan. The scenery ranged from stark and dry, including on a short drive through Azerbaijan, to beautiful autumn colours. The lake was stunning and we visited beautiful old churches on a hill beside the lake. Our guide Serj was very friendly and knowledgeable and we learned a lot from him. Highly recommend
