8 Days
From $2,100 per person
An 8-day journey to feed your soul. Meet priests, philosophers, and musicians who bring Armenia’s spirit to life. Attend a morning service in a 9th-century church, sip tea with a thinker, and end with a haunting duduk concert under the stars. This is Armenia’s spiritual side — raw, deep, and unforgettable.
Covers central and southern Armenia, including Geghard, Echmiadzin, and Khor Virap. These are the heartlands of Armenian Christianity, with monasteries set against dramatic mountains and valleys. Echmiadzin is the Vatican of Armenia, while Khor Virap offers views of Mount Ararat, a sacred symbol.
