Things to Do

Choose your rhythm.

Whether you want to lose yourself in a candle-lit monastery, ride horseback through alpine meadows or dine at a private vineyard — Armenia rewards travellers who slow down.

Art & Culture

Where every stone tells a story.

From Yerevan's modernist Cascade to candle-lit monasteries carved into living rock — Armenia's cultural depth is hard to overstate.

Museums & galleries

Matenadaran (world's largest manuscript collection), Cafesjian, History Museum, Sergei Parajanov.

Architecture

Pink tuff facades of Yerevan, Soviet modernism, medieval khachkar art, contemporary glass.

Heritage experiences

Carpet weaving in Gyumri, khachkar carving in Garni, pottery in Goris.

Performing arts

Yerevan Opera, summer jazz festival, intimate duduk recitals in monastery courtyards.

Culinary

A table that goes on forever.

Armenian food is generous, seasonal and proudly slow. Expect mountain herbs, charcoal smoke, apricots in everything and toasts that turn into stories.

Lavash & khorovats

Bake UNESCO-listed lavash on the walls of a tonir. Khorovats (the Armenian BBQ) is a ceremony — never just dinner.

Dolma, harissa, gata

Vine-leaf dolma in spring, slow-cooked harissa in winter, sweet gata from village bakers.

Armenian wine

6,100 years old and rising. Areni Noir reds, indigenous grapes, hidden cellars in the Vayots Dzor valley.

Farm-to-table

Mountain inns, foraged greens, trout from Sevan, herb-roasted lamb at family estates.

Nature & Adventure

Wild, varied, and surprisingly close.

Three climate zones in two hours' driving. Alpine forest, volcanic plateau, desert canyon, the blue mirror of Lake Sevan.

Hiking & trekking

Transcaucasian Trail, Mt. Aragats craters, Janapar trail through forested Tavush.

National parks & wildlife

Dilijan, Khosrov Forest, Lake Sevan — home to wolves, bears, mouflon and over 350 bird species.

Extreme adventure

Yell Extreme Park: ziplines, rope jumping, off-road buggies, paragliding over the Debed canyon.

Winter sports

Skiing at Tsaghkadzor and Jermuk, snow-kiting on Lake Arpi, ski-touring on Aragats.

Leisure & Lifestyle

Yerevan after dark — and well-being by day.

The capital is a 24-hour city; the regions a place to truly switch off. Looq programmes balance both.

Wellness & spa

Mineral springs of Jermuk, salt-cave speleotherapy, wine-bath retreats in the Areni valley.

Luxury retreats

Boutique mountain hotels, restored stone manors, vineyard estates with cliff-edge pools.

Bucket-list moments

Helicopter over Tatev, private breakfast under Mount Ararat, fire-lit dinner in a 13th-c cellar.

Workcation & MICE

Fast 5G, top-tier coworking, conference venues with character — from Cascade lofts to mountain inns.
