Stone monasteries older than the churches of Rome, set against the long silhouette of Ararat.
Armenia gathers its history around Yerevan, the monasteries of the Ararat plain and the shores of Lake Sevan. A luxury journey gives travellers cliff-edge churches, carved khachkar stone and views of Mount Ararat across the border. Cognac cellars and long, toast-heavy dinners round out a quieter Caucasus journey.
Late spring and early autumn bring the clearest views of Mount Ararat and the most comfortable travel. Summer suits Lake Sevan's shoreline well, while winter dusts the monasteries with snow but shortens the days.

Yes. Yerevan is walkable and safe, the monasteries and cable car at Tatev appeal to children, and portions are generous at every table. Long drives between sites are the main consideration for younger travellers.
Singapore passport holders may enter Armenia visa-free for stays, among the more straightforward entries in the Caucasus. Requirements can change, so it is worth confirming current rules shortly before departure.
Yerevan for its museums and cafes, Geghard and Khor Virap for the great monasteries, and Lake Sevan for a change of pace make a well-paced first route. Tatev rewards travellers with an extra day to spare.
