About the experience

Join us for a fun and educational walking tour of Gyumri, Armenia’s second largest city and cultural capital. During this tour, you’ll get to see the highlights of the city, learn about its history, get to know local people, and see why Gyumri is known for its art, music, architecture, handicrafts, films, and other cultural industries. Starting from the center of town, our professional local guides will lead you through the narrow, cobble-stoned streets of Gyumri’s historic district, the Kumayri Historical and Cultural Museum-Reserve, where you’ll marvel at the creations of 19th century Armenian urban architects, and learned how the city got its distinct architectural style and image. Throughout your tour, you’ll uncover local cultural practices and delights, imagine what life was like here at the turn of the 20th century, and learn just why Gyumri is so important to the overall history and development of Armenia. Our walking tour is long – approximately four hours – but we will take some time for water and coffee breaks throughout. We can’t wait to show you our beautiful city!
