Real feedback from drivers across Armenia
We receive feedback from drivers who have taken our vehicles through mountain passes, city streets, and remote trails. These reviews reflect real trips, actual road conditions, and the practicalities of getting keys, managing paperwork, and returning vehicles. Each comment comes from someone who navigated Armenian roads, dealt with local rental company staff, and handled the logistics of a multi-day journey.
Picked up a Nissan X-Trail at Zvartnots Airport and drove straight to Dilijan. The M4 highway was smooth, and the vehicle handled the winding forest roads around Parz Lake without issues. Fuel consumption matched what was listed in the voucher. Staff at the airport counter processed the paperwork in under ten minutes. Dropped off in Yerevan three days later with no surprises.
We drove a Toyota RAV4 from Yerevan to Sevan, then up to Selim Pass and down to Yeghegnadzor. Gravel sections near Noravank monastery were rough but manageable. The rental company in Yerevan delivered the vehicle to our hotel on time. All scratches were noted in the contract before we left. Returned it at their office near Republic Square. Clean process throughout.
Rented a Mitsubishi Pajero Sport for a week-long loop: Yerevan to Gyumri, then Spitak, Vanadzor, and back via Dilijan. Snow on higher sections near Ashotsk in January required careful driving, but the 4WD engaged smoothly. The local company in Yerevan provided clear instructions for crossing into Georgia, which we did near Bavra. No hold-ups at the border. Vehicle returned without issues.
Drove a Hyundai Tucson around Yerevan for four days, then out to Tsaghkadzor and back. The SUV was clean and ran well. Only minor complaint: narrow parking spaces in old Yerevan made manoeuvring tricky, especially near Cascade Complex. The rental desk at Zvartnots was easy to find. Documentation was straightforward. Would have preferred slightly clearer instructions on where to refuel before drop-off.
Picked up a Suzuki Jimny in Yerevan and took it south to Sisian, Goris, and Tatev. The compact size was perfect for tight village streets and steep monastery access roads. Part-time 4WD handled rocky sections near Khndzoresk cave settlement. Fuel stops were easy to find in larger towns. Returned the vehicle in Yerevan after five days. Staff inspected it quickly and released the hold on my card within two days.
Used a Kia Sportage for a ten-day trip from Yerevan to Meghri near the Iranian border, then back via Kapan and Goris. The M2 highway was in good condition most of the way. Mountain sections had sharp switchbacks but nothing dangerous. The rental company in Yerevan arranged delivery to our guesthouse in Kentron district. Paperwork was simple. Vehicle was clean and well-maintained. Returned at their office without complications.
Drove a Renault Duster from Gyumri to Yerevan, then out to Sevan and Dilijan over six days. The crossover managed graded dirt roads around Lake Sevan without trouble. Urban driving in Gyumri was straightforward. The local office in Gyumri had the vehicle ready when we arrived. All existing damage was photographed and listed in the contract. Dropped it off in Yerevan at a location near our hotel. Smooth experience overall.
Rented a Toyota Fortuner for a cross-border trip from Yerevan to Tbilisi and back. The written permission from the rental company was processed in advance, and Georgian border guards checked it at Bagratashen. The M6 highway on the Armenian side and E117 in Georgia were both well-paved. Vehicle handled the 250 km journey comfortably. Fuel economy was reasonable for a large SUV. Returned it in Yerevan after eight days with no issues.
