Communication with the booking company was also excellent. First we went to the ski resort and took a ski lift up to the top. The autumn colours were stunning! And the views were fabulous. Then on to Kercharis Monastery which was beautiful and afterwards Lake Sevan and the Sevanavank monastery. It’s a steep climb up to the Sevanavank but so worth the effort. The views from the top are absolutely stunning. We would thoroughly recommend…”
