We stayed in Yerevan for 3 days, and I can’t wait to return. A charming but vibrating place with many kind people and excellent food (I’m vegetarian, but still found many delicious meals). I’m overall not a brave person but I felt very safe during the trip. We used public transport and we left Armenia by train to Georgia, and the train was also comfortable and safe, staff was nice, and Armenian landscape was so beautiful that I really want to return to discover more of this georgious country.

before going there, i read some posts about travel experience in Yerevan on Chinese social media. and they say that eating there can be even more expensive than in tbilisi. they recommend a few buget restaurants and i tried two of them. Fourchette buffet is the better one. i ordered some beans, beetroot and two chicken wings which was recommended by the friendly server. they also have bread and other set meals. mine cost around 1500 which is an affordable price in yerevan.
Posted: June 9, 2024Experienced: May, 2024I LOVED Yerevan/armenia in general! Felt like a blend of European/middle eastern/russian/central Asian cultures. Hotels & airbnb’s were more expensive than I was expecting. The food was delicious. I recommend doing a couple of day trips down south and also up to lake sevan
Posted: April 24, 2024I was in Yerevan for a week, and I had a great time! It’s a small city, so a week is enough. The people there are very friendly, the food very delicious, and the prices cheap! Would go again, but maybe in the summer :)

My very first solo trip. Experienced snow for the very first time. Found walking in the snow tricky which is quiet contrary to what it seems. People are friendly, it's safe and overall very pleasant experience.
Posted: February 12, 2024I spent 6 days on a solo trip in Armenia. My favorite place in Yerevan was the Modern Arts Museum, a really beautiful collection of artwork. I also took 3 day tours out of the city, all of them very affordable. I loved Noravank Monastery, Garni Temple, and Tsaghkador the most. Felt very safe being alone.

Beautiful trip! I would recommend it to everyone. Safe, nice nature, kind and loving people, delicious food—everything is very cheap. We used public transport, and there was no problem. Best hiking spots: Garni, Dilijan, Sevan.
Posted: January 9, 2024Armenia is amazing if you are a girl. Locals are very sweet and respectful, they would never let you carry a heavy bag by yourself and everyone is always willing to show you around or give directions. Taxi is available and affordable and there will always be an empty room at a hotel. The local food is a form of art. And everything is VERY cheap. Overall just an amazing place to visit!!
Posted: November 18, 2023I was there for 2 weeks and practically ate my way through all of Armenia. The prices are reasonable, places are interesting, people are nice and friendly. Overall, it's worth it. Delicious wines and plenty of monasteries.
Posted: October 19, 2023Wonderful people, a place not yet touched by mass tourism, and a million trails leading to forgotten mountain churches. I recommend purchasing a local SIM card. It costs very little and significantly facilitates travel, especially in communication with accommodation facilities.

Yerevan is one of the safest cities you could visit being a woman, a solo traveler or an average person. Crime levels are as low as in Japan. You will feel welcomed and safe. Country is mono cultural.

Yerevan is the capital of Armenia, and as anywhere in country- you will meet hospitality on every step. Yerevan is quite a modern city, yet filled with a lot of history and culture. Most of the buildings in Yerevan are built of local volcanic pink stone called “tuf”, and the city is cheerfully pink. You will feel safe in the streets, while sightseeing during the day, and be safe at night enjoying numerous restaurants, bars, clubs and pubs. Of course, a little bit of rational precaution will be wise to have, as the city is sometimes filled with tourists from over the world of different backgrounds and habits, but cases of violence or robbery are not common on news at all.
