Top 15 Armenian Wine Tours & Tastings

22 reviewed

Armenian wine comes off old vines in the Vayots Dzor and Aragatsotn valleys and the good tasting rooms are an easy drive from the capital. These 15 tours are the ones to book: how many wineries each covers, whether lunch and transfers are in the price, and which suit a first taste versus a serious day.

Private day trip from Yerevan to Tatev, Khor Virap, Noravank, Shaki waterfall, plus wine tasting and scenic aerial tramway rides.

“The transportation was not complete as claimed: we had to pay the tickets to Tatev monastery ourselves (almost 60$). There had been no wine tasting ecc at all. The driver didn’t know a world of English, nor Russian, which made everything more difficult. Moreover, Viator costume service didn’t even try to refund the tickets or apologize for the poor experience. Unlucky, since the landscapes were amazing.”

Private tour from Yerevan to Khor Virap, Areni cave and wine, plus Noravank, with pickup, guide, and wine tasting.

“My sister and I enjoyed a lovely private tour to Areni region with Kristine as our guide and Davit as our driver. The car was comfortable and both accommodated our request to stop for a snack on the way into the region (so that our stomachs wouldn't be empty for the tasting!). We visited Khor Virap first, followed by the Noravank Monastery (We visited five monasteries in our time in Armenia and this one was by far the most ornate. It is also in a very beautiful location surrounded by mountainous terrain. Kristine's knowledge of the monasteries was top notch.”
