The Experience

Leaving Tbilisi behind, we set out early—there’s something about the morning air here, a bit crisp even in summer. Our driver, Arman, knew every twist in the road and shared stories as we crossed into Armenia. The border crossing was smooth; just a quick passport check and a smile from the guard who asked where we were headed.

First stop: Haghartsin Monastery. It’s tucked away in thick forest near Dilijan, and you can actually smell pine needles as you walk up the path. Inside, it’s quiet except for the echo of your own footsteps on stone. Arman pointed out carvings I’d have missed—tiny crosses hidden in corners. We grabbed coffee from a tiny roadside stand before heading on.

The drive to Lake Sevan is full of those “wow” moments—sheep grazing, old Ladas rattling past. At Sevanavank Monastery, the wind off the lake is sharp enough to wake you up if you’re getting drowsy. The view over the water is wide open; you’ll see fishermen hauling in their catch if you’re there late morning. We took our time climbing the steps (they’re not too steep), snapping photos and just soaking it all in before finishing the last stretch to Yerevan.
