2 Brits On A travel Adventure To Yerevan Armenia 🇦🇲 🇬🇧
2 Brits On A travel Adventure To Yerevan Armenia 🇦🇲 🇬🇧
Join me and my son David on the craziest journey to Yerevan Armenia.
The Adventure begins in Riga Latvia where we board a Wizz Air flight to Kutaisi Georgia, with the aim of arriving in Yerevan as soon as possible.
Armed with no plan we land in Kutaisi at almost 1 am, with no internet connection and make our way to the Kutaisi Train Station. To our delight, the next train to Tbilisi is at 2:30am.
As we waited for the train to Tbilisi, we found ourselves at a deserted train station with only a wild dog to entertain us.
Stranded with no food, and no cash to get anything from a cash-only vending machine, the night watchman finally arrived. I thought our luck was changing and we would now get fed and sort out some internet. None of that happened!!!
We finally get on the overcrowded train and after almost 5 hours we arrive in Tbilisi in the early hours of the morning, to find everything is closed.
Now we are hungry and aggravated, but we stick to the mission and figure out how to get to Yerevan. So we hop in a cab and go to the Bus Station to take a minibus to Yerevan. This being my first time riding a Marshrutka from Tbilisi to Yerevan I did not know what to expect. I was firstly surprised and disappointed that the trip was another 6 hours, but also horrified once I saw how crazy the driver was.
If you enjoy adventure videos from the former Soviet Union and Central & Eastern Europe, then grab your vodka, some zakusky and join me as we go on the craziest of travel adventures to Yerevan in Armenia.

Dearest Justin, I’m thrilled to see you and your darling David back in Armenia. Thank goodness for the annoying algorithm for properly delivering you to us. Again, you provide such a unique perspective on travel. Your interactions with the locals are what sets you apart. I'm fluent in four languages, but would love to learn one more. You've inspired me a great deal. May you be blessed in all your endeavors. We Armenians who have unjustly been dispersed all over the globe, are particularly grateful to you. You brighten up my day & soul with your Armenian travel videos. Sending you a boatload of LOVE ❤️🇦🇲🙏 Anniewho😘

Hi Annie, Thank you for such a lovely message, it is very kind of you. I am so happy to be back and am excited to spend the next 10 days here exploring, learning, experiencing and tasting what your amazing country has to offer. Are you in Armenia or are you abroad? Please learn another language, it enriches life in so many wonderful ways. Thank you for watching and supporting the channel. All the best😉
Welcome back to Armenia, Justin. I am glad you are ok after your accident. Stay well.
Justin! What a surprise! So happy to see you're back in Armenia!!! Hope you have a wonderful time (once again)!
Welcome back Justin!!!! This time I hope for so much more coverage, after all Armenia has so many hidden gems to offer (and not only Yerevan alone) Dilijan, Sevan, Jermuk, Hagartsin, Goshavanq, Gyumri, Yenoqavan with its gorgeous Lastiver Canyon, Yell extreme park, Stepanavan dendropark, Khndzoresk with its cave settelments, Tatev monastery, Stonehenge/ Qarahunge in the south ... etc while in Yerevan you have to try gigantic croissant, gigantic xachapuri made with ostrich egg, gigantic coffee and why not 1 meter long kebab and or pizza...
Man Armenia is so beautiful its so amazing your videos in Armenia. Hope you make more Armenia videos.
Wow!! Awesome!! You’re back in Armenia sooner than we thought! Looking forward to great videos from Armenia!
Thank you very much for showing our fabulous Armenia to the world. We love you Justin and David! Welcome back and enjoy!

Hi Justin, I am from Armenia. I would recommend you to visit these restaurants Շերեփ (Sherep), Casa Nostra (Կազա Նոստրա) or Sirelis . I think you would like Sirelis the best, the restaurant is designed as it was in Soviet times. You can find these places in google maps easily. Wish you great trip!
Justin, given your excitement for LADAs, you might be interested to know that there is a French band called LADANIVA. It consists of many International musicians working currently together. They perform Easten European, African and Armenian fusion songs. The lead members have one thing in common: their dads had LADA Nivas as they were growing up. Sometimes they come with concerts to Armenia. (Not now.) People like them. You might like their music too.
Back on a trail. Yoo-hoo 🎉. Justin I hope you recovered fully. Wish you guys will have fantastic time in Armenia. Try to visit northern regions. Can’t wait to see new videos!
Happy that you are in Armenia🙌 love your videos! Please keep posting more videos of different areas in Armenia
Джастин,Вы большой юморист и приколист! Сцены в аэропорту Грузии убили меня 😭😭🤣🤣👍🇦🇲
Justin , if I'm not mistaken,(🤔) you could fly to Yerevan from Vilnius , you can check the information about flights from Armenia in the direction you need while you are there. P.S. I enjoy watching your videos from Armenia and not only from there. Good luck to you and your son! LIKE( as usual) & RESPECT 🙂👌

Уважаемый Джастин , поезд едет из Грузии в Ереван.
Why service related infrastructure in Georgia is sooooooo out of control ?? Based on my own observations out of all former USSR countries I can tell that Armenia (together with Baltic states) is long steps ahead of every country, just a fact!
Hi ! I would advise You to take a bus/pullman from Kutaisi to Tbilisi, instead of trying to reach Kutaisi's train station by night and taking train to Tbilisi.Georgian Buses are very frequent, comfortable and cheap and they deliver passengers right to Tbilisi center.
I recommend Vanadzor mate or other places in Armenia such as the smaller towns like Yeghegnadzor hospitality here is just silly especially with your language skills. Even sevan is pretty cool away from the tourist part.
back to Armenia again? you love armenia :)

Why there's no handle, probably used it for lighting the BBQ for kebab! Brother, there's a story I'd love you to explore and consider. An Aussie and his Armenian wife moved to AM and developed a wonderful resort in Vanadzor, they're struggling with the reality many tourist just stick to Yerevan and the major attractions and itinerary. You've travelled far and wide, what are the conveniences and hassles of touring via main inbound channels and sights, or like you often do, go "walkabout" and do your own thing. Is it a matter of security that one ventures on the known trails, what's it going to take for tourists to break out of the norm and visit villages, is it Cost? Risk? Language? Remotenes? Unfamiliarity... I can think of countless reason why, and yet know countless reason why people SHOULD venture out there, because the warmth and sincerity has time and nature on it's side to enjoy. I know that from the last few years, Ive been intently interested in the going-ons there, learning why things have gone the way they have and how the nation needs to maximise their potential. I know for one, it's now a luxury to own a country cottage, our lives are city bound and it's hard to break free. Is it much the same for travellers and vloggers, are there too many unknowns to go to the borders, or is it those markets aren't reaching out to you? See @OriginsD (Len) #AreniLodge - #Vanadzor #Armenia (#resort #vineyard #cuisine)

Hahah I swear anything I asked someone in Georgia I was just met with me feeling like a pure nuisance. Classic scenes
Сколько бродячьих собак 😢😢😢😢 брошенный на холодную и голодную смерть 😭😭😭😭
Back on the road again! And super quick turnaround on the edit. Was the drive to Yerevan a scenic one?
Would be better to have someone picked you guys up from Kutaisi directly to Yerevan. )))
safe trip bro 😊 enjoy it

I like how you did there. " Planes Trains Automobiles". Like Steve Martin's movie. I know your Your Tube channel is based in Eastern Europe and i hope map of Europe extends to Armenia because Armenia culturally is more similar to Eastern Europe let say, but will you ever visit Lebanon or have you visit Lebanon already. Thank You very much.

You've had a crazy month yeah? Who gives a SHTTTT.. you think i clicked a video about Yerevan to see and listen to YOU?
lmfao, love how the first half of the video is just you getting scammed in Georgia. My mother grew up there and they're racist as hell towards Armenians btw, rejected her from multiple art schools for her ethnicity even though she was more than talented enough to get in.
there are too many stray dogs in Georgia. what's up with that? they should have rescued' them.
it is said that the British moved to England from the Armenian Highlands. That's why you like it there. call of blood
