Had a delightful day out on 15th April 2024 to Tsakhats Kar monastery and Smbataberd fortress. Even managed to dodge the spring rain.
Shushan is not just knowledgeable, her love of the landscape shines through when she talks about hiking and climbing. I was also able to talk with her about subjects I would be nervous of addressing with my Armenian colleagues.
Others have made the point before, but it's worth repeating: "If you want to disvover Armenia, get out of Yerevan!"
Shushan is a mine of information on a range of subjects, including the best chocolates and wines to buy in Armenia.I would definitely seek her out on a another visit to Armenia.

In August we had a wonderful 4-day trip to the south of Armenia. Shushan took care of everything. The food was also excellent - which is not always easy with me. :-)
The four varied days were a fantastic experience. When I come to Armenia again, I hope to be able to go on a trip with Shushan again.

Wir hatten im August einen traumhaften 4-Tages-Trip in den Süden Armeniens. Shushan hat sich um alles gekümmert. Auch die Verpflegung war hervorragend - was bei mir nicht immer einfach ist. :-)
Die 4 Tage abwechslungsreichen Tage waren eine fantastische Erfahrung. Wenn ich wieder nach Armenien komme, hoffe ich, auch wieder mit Shushan einen Trip machen zu können.

Shushan is the guide you're looking for!
We hiked together for two days in Dilijan National Park, it was the best time I had in Armenia and in hindsight I wish I'd spent the whole trip with her! She's knowledgeable and she'll go out of her way to tailor the perfect experience for people. She was helpful also outside our hiking time and gave me lots of help and suggestions while I was on my own, both before and after we met.
She's lovely and brave, I couldn't recommend her enough!

Շուշանի հետ ապրիլին բարձրացել ենք Ապակեքար լեռ։ Խոսքեր չունեմ ասելու, թե որքան հանգիստ, հավասարակշռված, համբերատար ու պրոֆեսիոնալ ուղեկցորդի հետ գործ ունեցանք։ Մենք ամեն տարի տարբեր ուղեկցորդների հետ թիմ բիլդինգներ ենք անում ու ես անկեղծ կարող եմ ասել, որ նման սպասարկում չէի ակնկալում։ Մինչը արշավը խոսվեց քայլելու տեխնիկայի, ճանապարհի մասին շատ պարզ ու հասկանալի, որ խմբին շատ կոմֆորտ ու հաճելի էր արշավը։ Քայլել ենք այնպես, որ հանգիստ խոսում ու շփվում էինք, շնչակտուր չէինք վազում։ Վստահ էլի կաշխատենք միասին, Շուշան ջան։ Շնորհակալություն շատ։

We really enjoyed our Geghama mountain hike with Shushan. She is an inspiration to all female hikers. I would highly recommend her to beginner and experienced hikers. We can’t wait to hike with her again.

We hiked for 2 days in the Lori region.
It was a real pleasure to walk with Shushan.
Thank you very much for the reactivity to organize together and for all the very interesting exchanges we had!
I hope to see you again on other routes !

Shushan was our guide for our 2 day hike in the Geghamas. The communication before the tour was superb. She answer all my queries and ensures that we are ready before the hike by providing us with relevant information and suggestions. She also planned very well our hike and understand the specific needs of our group (as we have a child and some woman in our group). A great added bonus was Shushan's Armenian pasta cooking + fruits and native sweets that she brought during our hike. :)

Shushan has been incredible with us. We started chatting together when we had already planned most of our trip and everything was rushed. She put great effort into making our hike work. When we met in Jerevan, she showed us the way to Aragac and we climbed to its southern peak. It was beautiful experience and even though we were kind of struggling with altitude sickness, she was very helpful and patient with us. On our way back we got into a minor car accident and Shushan stayed with us. She helped us talk to the police, car rental and insurance companies as well. I can not imagine how we would have managed without her. Go hike with Shushan, you will love it

We did incredible 3-day hike in Lori province with Shoushan. She arranged everything and we really enjoyed the trek.
She was able to adjust the program to suit our abilities and preferences through a wonderful countryside.
We would recommend her as a guide to both first time hikers and those more experienced, as there were both of them in our group and she was very patient to the hikers who needed much rest.
She also knows everything about herbs, we’ve picked up a lot of herbs and she has prepared for us delicious Armenian herbal tea at the campsite.
Thank you again for making our trip so full and interesting. Many more to come!
