Hit the Gas! Drive Through Armenia 🚗

Let's talk about the main advantages of traveling by car on your own Armenia is definitely the best place for road trips! It’s not for nothing that the next anniversary part of “Fast and Furious 100” will be filmed here. According to the plot, Dominic Toretto will return to the past in a time machine and save the Titanic by simply splitting the iceberg into pieces in a new, pumped-up car. In the meantime, Vin Diesel is preparing for filming, let’s remember that the “drive yourself” format is chosen by those for whom the process of the road and independence are important. AFTER boring work days, you get absolute freedom, because you decide what time your day starts. No strict timings, did you see a panorama of mountains, a valley or a cozy place for a break outside the window? Slow down, take photos for social networks and immediately make a story so that everyone you know on the couch likes it (or rather, doesn’t like it, if you know what I mean). And you don't have to ask anyone for permission! Don't forget that you are the one driving - literally and figuratively. The main thing is to include modern Armenian music, not rabiz. In this case, in general, everything will be normal (with the exception of Dumikyan’s songs, they are allowed). 💡 Where can I rent a car? A huge plus is that you don’t need to drive your own car to Armenia. Car rental is well developed here, so you can easily choose a car for any task - from an economical sedan for the highway to a powerful crossover for conquering the mountains. You can view available options and book a car with our partners: 👉 /partner_car. 🗺️ Where to go by car? For those who believe that Yerevan is the whole of Armenia, I have to disappoint you: there are almost all climatic zones here. In just a couple of hours you will see green valleys, cliffs, dense forests, steppes and endless lakes. For more details, see our mega-cool section, where we have collected all the top locations/places. We have also prepared ready-made road adventure plans for every taste and color for road travelers. Follow the link, choose a ready-made direction from Yerevan and discover Armenia: 👉 /places. Traveling by car in Armenia is a detachment from reality, minimal in time, but maximal in content. Therefore, stop watching TV shows about cool people in pumped-up cars, it’s time to become one of them. Remember: the real world is outside the walls, not in the screen of gadgets!

Join the Trip! Best Tours & Guides 🗺️

What tours and excursions are suitable for exploring Armenia? Let's look at the excursion format in detail so that the advantages become clear. But first, let’s answer one question: what is the secret to a great trip? Of course, in good company! In a circle of like-minded people, any non-standard or trash situation instantly turns into god-level improvisation. I remember on one of our tours our bus broke down right in the middle of the road. But the guys were not at a loss, they came out and started dancing right on the track, despite all the absurdity it was funny. In short, never choose between two good options - combine! Take a ready-made tour to the most beautiful places and go towards the world in great company.👥 In other words, stop sitting at home and watching the screen as others have fun. Go against the system if, of course, you like adventure. Which tour format should I choose? Depending on the goals, excursions can be divided into two formats:     Group tours. This is a great way not only to visit the main locations and learn their history, but also to meet new people. If you are traveling alone or want to expand your social circle, this is the place for you.     Individual tours. If you already have your own special company, you are traveling with your family (and family comes first for us!), or generally want to be alone with a guide - this format is for you. 💡Where to find a good guide and program? To ensure your trip goes smoothly, trust it to professionals. You don’t have to think about logistics, roads and booking tickets - everything is already organized for you (as they say, everything was already stolen before you). You can choose an excursion tour tested by fire and sword for every taste from our trusted partners: 👉 /partner_tours 🏛️ Let’s educate ourselves culturally (at least once a year): not just for the sake of photos. You and I are cultured people, at least I hope! Of course, we are interested not only in pretentious photos on social networks against the backdrop of ancient fortresses and temples. It is important for us to know their real history, because Armenia is one of the oldest states in the world, if you didn’t know. And the best way to understand it is to listen to a professional who knows his business and can answer all your questions. Remember: there are no stupid questions, there are stupid people. Go to our section, made especially for you, read descriptions of historical monuments and choose where to go first: 👉 /places. Get to know Armenia, communicate, discover new things and collect the best moments in good company! 🇦🇲✨

🔖 Рубрика: Дикая Армения без купюр В Армении живут настоящие леопарды ! 🐆 Возьмите огнетушитель, потому что у кого-то сейчас точно подгорит. Да, вам не послышалось — это не кликбейт, не история о сбежавших из зоопарка животных и не шутка про энергетик с ягуаром. Леопарды жили здесь всегда. Это их историческая родина. Но браконьерство, увы, присуще многим: большая часть местной мегафауны — олени, безоаровые козлы и леопарды — истреблялась десятилетиями буквально «по приколу». Других причин для такого варварства я не вижу. Но на этом плохие новости кончаются. Благодаря усилиям экологов и властей популяцию удалось начать восстанавливать. И пока всё идет хорошо. Что мы имеем на сегодняшний день: ✅ Цифры: В Армении сейчас зафиксировано около 10 особей (по последним данным фотоловушек). Каждый из них — на вес золота. ✅ Где они живут: Исторически это юг — скалистые горы Сюника и Вайоц Дзора (Хосровский заповедник, Зангезурский заказник). Но держитесь крепче: недавно леопарда зафиксировали даже на севере, в Тавуше! Это настоящий триумф — зверь возвращается на свои северные территории, где его не видели десятилетиями. ✅ На кого охотятся: Главное блюдо в меню леопарда — безоаровый козел. Раньше козлов почти выбили, и леопардам просто нечего было есть. Сейчас популяцию козлов восстановили, а значит, у «пятнистых» появился шанс на выживание. Не волнуйтесь, на людей они не нападают. Хотя было бы справедливо, если бы для любителей пострелять они сделали исключение и добавили в рацион барана, но уже двуногого. Шутка, конечно, но имейте в виду: штраф за леопарда сейчас — 100 000 000 драмов (~$250 000) плюс реальный уголовный срок. Про горных козлов расскажем отдельно, ибо есть секретные места, где вы можете увидеть их своими глазами. P.S. Для тех, кто считает, что «хищники — это зло»: без леопарда горы превращаются в пустыню. Он — главный менеджер экосистемы, который следит, чтобы козлы не съели всю зелень подчистую. Баланс решает всё. 📸 Фото: @wwf_armenia #armtrips24
