Meet your tour guide in Yerevan city and depart for your tour of the city.
Visit Republic Square, where you can get in touch with the great history of Armenia through the magnificent architectural ensemble that surrounds it. After refreshing with natural spring water coming up right from the ground, you will then head to one of the oldest parts of the city.
Proceed to The Opera and Ballet Theatre which is another 10-minute walk from the Moscow cinema theatre. This is one of the absolute masterpieces of the world architecture that the city of Yerevan hosts and undoubtedly one of the landmarks of Armenia. The Freedom or Theatrical Square in front is one of the most popular leisure places of local young people who come here to bike or skate. Swan Lake near the Opera House which is tightly connected by its history to the Opera Theater is another perfect spot to enjoy walking and meet a lot of local people. Often concerts are held here in the evenings.
Continue your way through the French Square and the park of the Yerevan State Conservatory and you will reach the Cascade or as people call it- “The stairway to heaven”, one of the symbols of the Armenian capital. This is a key structure in Yerevan city architecture constructed in the ’70s, which has revived since the early 2000s, undergoing major restoration works. Today this is one of the beloved places of not only the locals but also the tourists with multiple cosy cafes, beer places and restaurants, representing one of the biggest collections of the world modern art in Yerevan. Concerts and traditional dance events are periodically held here to entertain the public.
At the end of the tour, you will be dropped back at your hotel/airport.
