Overview
This private walking food tour is an introduction to Armenia’s ancient and international kitchen.

As you taste and walk, you’ll hear stories about each dish, and about Yerevan, country capital and cultural melting pot.
Why is bread broken by hand in Armenia, and never with a knife? Why is Armenian cheese so salty? How do you properly wrap cheese in a flat bread with wild greens, Armenia’s most popular snack? Find out on the Yerevan Gastrotrip, available in English, Russian, French, Spanish, Italian, and Armenian.
