This is the original, first free walking tour in Yerevan.
We started doing this tour over 10 years ago and it's constantly improved and updated.
THE Main Tour of Yerevan was created from scratch, based on the concept of free, tip-based tours around the world and offered a new understanding on walking tours in Yerevan.
The itinerary was changed a few times and was perfected during the years. It covers around 20 points of interest in the center of Yerevan, plus detailed info about history, art, cuisine, religion, language, architecture, current affairs, the transport system, where to eat, drink and party, cultural and night life, etc. It takes you to the main sites as well as to back alleys and hidden places, telling you stories and fun facts about our 2806-year-young-city and its people.

We go to sites like:

Republic Square
Fountains and parks
The historic Hanrapetutyan and Abovyan Streets
The Northern Avenue
The New Old Town of Yerevan
The Opera and Freedom Square
The Cascade
19th century backyards
Hidden alleys and buildings.
Vernissage Market
The Metro
A historic church
The Khachkar Park.
and MUCH MORE...

We don't accept early reservations. Pls reserve within 2 weeks of the tour date.

We do the tour if we have at least 5 people. We will inform you if the tour is NOT happening.

At the meeting point look for the guide with our orange logo lanyard badge.
We DON'T use umbrellas, tshirts, flags, etc.

The tour lasts around 3 hours, walking around 3.5 km. And yes; there's a lot of standing and listening to the guide ;)

This tour is not suitable for the elderly and babies, toddlers with or without strollers and children under ten. As for older children; you decide, as you know if your child can walk 3 hours and listen to the guide. And pls remember that there are other people on the tour too.

Only travelers can join the tour.
We reserve the right for admission.

See you soon :)
