English is common in tourism hubs, though knowing a few Armenian or Russian basics smooths the journey. Roads can wind through mountainous terrain, so plan transportation ahead. Respect local customs, especially at religious sites. Visa processes are increasingly streamlined, with many travelers eligible for e-visas or visa-free entry. Enjoy the pace, Armenia reveals its magic one monastery, one mountain, one meal at a time.
