Hyur were great. The Gorni trip was arranged with Hyur Travel a few weeks in advance of us travelling. Hyur offer a wide range of set trips all over Armenia, including into Ngorny Kharabakh, or you can tailor your own trip the way we did, and which they gave great advice on.
Our plan for the day was to cover Gorni Temple, a short trek into Khosrov Nature Reserve and the Gheghard Monastery. We were impressed as the mini bus arrived at the hotel bang on time, if not a few minutes early. The driver was safe, always a good point, and our guide was the excellent, knowledgeable Lilit Suchyan.
I asked the hotel staff about the car I had booked weeks before for the return journey to Tbilisi. The response was the blank, obtuse look only produced by Eastern European hotel receptionists, until Lilit stepped in and without fuss arranged a car for the next morning to Tbilisi.
Hyur organise far more than tours but for more info check their website, http://www.hyurservice.com/. I would thoroughly recommend them.
We took several tours with Hyur company including Karabakh in one month. Their service is great, especially their tour directors/guides. Buses are comfortable, lunches and dinners are always delicious and made with fresh ingredients.
ReplyDeleteAfter visiting 25 countries on 4 continents with companies like Trafalgar, Gate 1, AA Kings Tour, Globus, Cosmos, just a few to name, we were really impressed.
Thank you, Hyur!
