solo traveler here ; I want to read and sleep, not hear traffic all night where to stay?

Flight to Yerevan in 5 days , I’m not really looking to stay in the city center. I’d rather be somewhere quiet where I can read, relax, and get good sleep.

I’m not sure which areas to look at, so I’d appreciate any local insight.

Gold’s gym Yerevan

What has your experience been like with Gold’s Gym Yerevan? Since their pricing strategy basically pushes you into buying a yearly membership, I’d love to know if there are any downsides or issues that aren’t obvious at first.

How to pay on trains/buses around & leaving Yerevan?

Hello, I'm trying to figure out the Yerevan transport system. According to one site I checked, buses around Yerevan are mainly booked via an app. A different site says you insert a coin when you get on a bus. Which one is right? And what about buying tickets to travel out of the city, like getting a bus from Yerevan to Dilijan, or a train from Yerevan to Gyumri?

Moving to Armenia - NEED ADVICE

Hi everyone! I'll be moving to Armenia(YEREVAN) this year, I'd love to hear from people who live in Armenia or have studied there.

A few questions I have:

  1. Any tips on adjusting to the weather, culture, or daily life?
  2. Recommendations for affordable restaurants, grocery stores, or places to visit
  3. Scams or common mistakes I should avoid?
  4. What's something you wish you knew before moving to Armenia?
  5. What's the local apps I should know of?
  6. What are some common cultural dos and don'ts?
  7. Is cash or card used more often?
  8. Are there any areas to avoid at night?
  9. What should I do immediately after arriving?
  10. Are there any student discounts for transport, museums, or restaurants?

That's all the questions I could think off, I'd really appreciate any tips or personal experiences even if they aren't related to the questions above.

If you could give just one piece of advice to an international student moving to Armenia, what would it be? Any advice, big or small, would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!

Short Term Rental Yerevan

My wife and I are looking to rent a 1bedroom in Yerevan this Aug for about 3-6months. We've been looking at the usual sites like AirBNB and booking.com but found that the prices are insanely high, way higher than what we've read about. Are there specific sites or groups we should join for better prices?

How to pay bus with foreign Visa/Master card at Yerevan Zvartnots Airport EVN?

Hello, my WizzAir flight will arrive in Yerevan Zvartnots Airport EVN after midnight.

How can I pay for the airport bus 100 and/or Marshrutka 201?

Plan A: According to the airport website https://www.zvartnots.aero/EN/Content/Transport , after clicking on "Route N100", it says "Bank card payment (VISA, Master Card) - pay directly in the transport".

Can anyone confirm this?

my backup plans...

Plan B: Buy a SIM card in the airport(it seems their wireless stores are open 24 hours), setup Telcell wallet app with a new Armenia SIM number. Telcell only works with Armenia phone numbers https://telcell.am/en

Can I buy a bus ticket in Telcell app and pay with VISA/Master Card?

Can I to buy a bus ticket at orange machines(terminals) with VISA/Master Card?

Plan C: Withdraw cash from card ATMs in the airport with VISA/Master Card. Revolut told me any ATM that supports Visa or Master card should work... e.g. ConverseBank, AmioBank, Ardshinbank, Unibank, ACBA, etc... according to "ATM FEE SAVER" app

Plan D: Exchange USD or EUR to Dram at exchange booths. It seems they are open 24 hours according to Yandex Map and Google Map.

Plan E: Use GG or YandexGo app to pay a ride with VISA/Master Card. I am aware of the rampant taxi scams...

Plan F: Exchange crypto to cash via crypto ATM in the airport... not sure about their rates...

Thanks!

Accomodationnin Yerevan

Hi friends!

I was wondering what is the reason for high prices in tourist accomodation in Yerevan comparing to Tblisi. I'm travelling right now with a family of four ( wife and two teenage kids so basicallly 4 people group) and using booking.com and airbnb the prices are very different. Right now i had 3 nights in tblisi for about 130 euros but looking for yerevan the prices are two or three times that.

  1. Is there some other way to find accomodation in Yerevan online but these two websites?
  2. Or is there some other economic reason for these prices?

Looking for a good spot to smoke my last cigarette at

Hi guys! The post is kind of random but I wanted to quit for life as I might be going to the army soon and need a nice spot preferably with the view of the city to finish my last cigarette.

I thought of cascade but it’s a bit too crowded. I wanted a spot that not a lot of people know about, yet it has a great view especially during the sunset. Any help would be appreciated!
