About this experience
I invite you on a journey through the picturesque valley located between the mountains of Ararat and Aragats. You will visit a dried fruit factory where you will learn about the intricacies of producing eco-products and taste natural desserts bathed in Armenian sun. And at the winery, you will have the opportunity to taste various types of Armenian wines.
What to expect

The highlight of the program is a visit to a dried fruit and canned vegetables production facility. You will be guided through the factory and learn how truly nutritious 'sunny' products are made without sugar and harmful chemical additives. You will be treated to dried fruits, and those you like, you will be able to purchase.
