A guide for our guests visiting Armenia Why Armenia :Armenia holds a very special place in our hearts. It is a country rich in history, faith, culture, and breathtaking landscapes. It is also Roza’s Birthplace and where most of her family currently resides! We are incredibly excited to celebrate our wedding here and even more excited to share this experience with you.
Getting to Armenia: International guests will arrive at Zvartnots International Airport
(EVN) in Yerevan. The airport is modern, easy to navigate, and located approximately 15-20 minutes from the city center.
Transportation: Gg or Yandex Go Apps
GG or Yandex are the most reliable and commonly used ride-hailing apps in Armenia, similar to Uber or Lytt. We use it all the time!
- Download the GG or Yandex Go app before arriving
- Works seamlessly at the airport and throughout the city
- Very affordable and safe
- English interface available
- Cash and card payments accepted
We strongly recommend using gg or Yandex instead of hailing taxis on the street.
