Car hire in Yerevan is mostly about road-tripping rather than driving inside the city. Republic Square, the Cascade, Tsitsernakaberd and Vernissage are easy on foot, and most guests pick up a car not on the day they land but on the day they head out — to Garni, Lake Sevan or across the border to Georgia.

Zvartnots Airport sits just 12 km from the centre — one of the closest airports in the region. Most of our partners meet you at the arrivals exit by flight number, or deliver the car to your hotel for free on the day your trip starts.

In our experience, the easiest way is to take the car on the day you leave Yerevan: the first 24 hours go by on foot and in cheap taxis anyway.

We deliver to most hotels in central Yerevan free of charge — there's no separate trip to an office to pick up the car.

Zvartnots and city delivery

Zvartnots (EVN) is Armenia's main international airport and the pickup point for most rentals in the country. From the airport to the centre is 12 km on the M5 motorway — 15–25 minutes, up to 35 in rush hour. Bus 201 runs to Republic Square for 300 drams; Yandex Go and GG Taxi work at EVN with a fixed fare of about $5–10. If you're heading straight to Lake Sevan or Dilijan, picking up the car at the airport is the easiest option.

We meet most guests at the arrivals exit by flight number. It's faster than the rental shuttle, especially after a late-evening flight.

If your first night is in Yerevan and you only need the car the next morning, hotel delivery is usually the simplest option — most partners offer it free within the centre. Address and time are agreed at booking, with no extra delivery fee on the bill.

If your flight is delayed, send us a WhatsApp message before take-off with the flight number. We track arrivals and wait without an extra charge.

Lada Niva in Armenia

everything went smoothly, delivery of the car to place next to the airport. The car was new, clean with as agreed a child seat. I would recommend providing information that the Lada Niva has an A/C (we meet some Polish couple and they wanted to rent the car but could not find any information whether it has on has not a A/C). The guys from the rental company were great, here I would recommend as the office in the in center of the town with scarce parking opportunities to provide information where to par if there is no free space close to the office.

Lada Niva in Armenia

Everything went fine with this rent company. The car they gave us was clean, well kept and in perfect working order, simply beautiful. We drove for five days, about 800 km in Armenia without any problem. Another great thing is that you could receive the car directly at your address for a little surplus and the guy who delivered it to us was kind and he explained everything we need to know. By the way, I always suggest the full insurance cover, you never know... Highly Recommended!

Everything was good, the car was eventually provided ford focus, as I realized it was newer, but there was a small malfunction with the gearbox, which forced me to sometimes stop on the way, so that the car - cooled down. Otherwise everything was good and polite.

Day trips from Yerevan

Yerevan's geography is the practical advantage: almost every Armenian sight is within a day's drive. The most popular run is Garni and Geghard — a 1st-century pagan temple, the UNESCO cave monastery and the Symphony of Stones. From Yerevan, Garni is 45 minutes on tarmac.

Day-trip routes

Khor Virap with its view of Mount Ararat is 45 minutes south. Echmiadzin and its cathedral — 30 minutes on the M5. Lake Sevan and Sevanavank — 1 hour on the M4. Dilijan, 'the Armenian Switzerland' — 1.5 hours into the mountains.

Garni – Geghard – Sevan in one day is the standard loop for first-time visitors: all paved, and you're back in Yerevan by sunset.

Longer routes

Tatev and its cable car are 4 hours one way, best with an overnight in Goris. Tbilisi is 5–6 hours on the M6 via the Bagratashen crossing (around 250 km), available with selected partners using a notarised power of attorney and a Green Card. A weekend covers half of Armenia: Sevan and Dilijan, Tatev and Khndzoresk, Areni and Noravank.

If Tatev or Georgia is on the plan, take the car at Zvartnots straight off the flight. A day in Yerevan loses nothing without one.

Armenia with locals

Paid parking in Yerevan

Yerevan introduced a coloured-zone parking system in 2024. Red lines mark Zone A (about 40 central streets): 300 drams per hour, 2,000 per day, 5,000 per week. Blue lines mark Zone B (Arabkir and parts of the outer districts): 200 drams per hour. White lines are service spaces — no parking. Green lines are EV-only. The first 15 minutes are free everywhere, and from 22:00 to 10:00 parking is free.

The easiest way to pay is via the Telcell or IDRAM apps. They accept foreign cards, so you don't need cash for parking in central Yerevan at all.

The largest covered car park is the underground garage beneath Freedom Square — 600 spaces, from 200 drams per hour, paid on exit, secured and open 24/7. Several central hotels run their own car parks, and the addresses can be confirmed when you book.

If someone in the centre offers to 'hold' a space for cash and shifts boxes for you, that isn't municipal parking. Real parking is paid only via app or meter, never to a passer-by.

Rates in Yerevan vary throughout the year depending on the season and the rental length.

chartHow expensive is renting a car in Yerevan: average daily rates for a one-week car rental, across all car classes.
RENT A CAR
  • Free hotel delivery in Yerevan

    Most partners bring the car to your central address at no extra charge — the time and place are agreed at booking.

  • Russian- and English-speaking owners

    Yerevan is the most multilingual rental destination in the region, and key questions can be sorted in WhatsApp before pickup.

  • Cross-border to Georgia with full paperwork

    Our support team arranges the notarised power of attorney and a Green Card so you can drive on to Tbilisi without questions.

Long-term hire

Yerevan has become one of the busiest long-stay destinations in the region — for remote workers, students, and visitors on extended business trips. To match the demand, the local market has built out longer rental rates. Bookings of 28 days or more usually drop 20–35 % off the daily price, and a number of partners offer 3- and 6-month packages with additional discounts and a guaranteed swap if the car has trouble.

An economy saloon in Yerevan for a month costs from $400–600 depending on the model and season. For six months we have separate rates with a price review at renewal.

Long-term packages often include Full Coverage with no excess and roadside assistance, and payment can be monthly or upfront for the whole period. It's a comfortable option for anyone planning to stay in Yerevan for a month or longer who isn't ready to buy a car outright.

Take the long-term package if you're in Yerevan for at least a month: the daily rate over the same period works out roughly half as expensive again.

Frequent Questions

How far ahead should I book a car in Yerevan for summer?

For July–September, 4–8 weeks ahead. The Armenian fleet is small, and automatics and SUVs disappear first. Spring weddings, autumn foliage trips to Tatev, and arriving long-stay residents all add demand. For low season (November–March) one to two weeks is usually enough.

How far is Zvartnots Airport from central Yerevan?

12 km from the centre, 15–25 minutes on the M5 motorway. It's one of the closest airports in the region — only Belgrade is closer among researched destinations. Transfers cost less than from Tirana or Tbilisi to their respective city centres.

What is the easiest way from Zvartnots to the centre?

By car, 15–25 minutes on the M5 (35+ in rush hour). Bus 201 runs to Republic Square for 300 drams. Yandex Go and GG Taxi work at EVN with a fixed fare of about $5–10. In a hire car, watch the speed cameras on the M5 — they're very strict.

How much does car hire in Yerevan cost?

Economy starts from $26 a day in low season and $40–60 in summer. Mid-size $30–45, crossovers and SUVs $50–100. Yerevan is more expensive than Georgia or Albania because the Armenian car market is closed. For the summer peak, book 4–8 weeks ahead — automatics and SUVs sell out first.

Why is Yerevan more expensive than Albania or Georgia?

The Armenian car market is closed: few international chains, a limited fleet and high import duties on cars. On top of that, Yerevan has been receiving large numbers of long-stay residents and remote workers since 2022. The result is older saloons at $40–60 a day in low season — pricier than a fresh crossover in Albania.

Is hotel delivery in Yerevan free?

With most of our partners, yes — within the central districts of Yerevan. The address and time are agreed at booking, with no extra delivery fee on the bill or at handover. Delivery beyond the centre is usually $5–10 depending on the area.

Do I need a car for days inside Yerevan itself?

Not really. Republic Square, the Cascade, Vernissage and Tsitsernakaberd are all walkable, and taxis in the centre are inexpensive. It's easier to take the car on the day you head out — to Garni, Sevan, Tatev or Tbilisi — and skip parking and morning rush hour.

What are the most popular day trips from Yerevan?

Garni and Geghard (45 minutes), Khor Virap with the view of Mount Ararat (45 minutes), Echmiadzin (30 minutes), Lake Sevan (1 hour), Dilijan (1.5 hours). Tatev is 4 hours one way, so it's worth planning with an overnight in Goris. All routes are paved.

How does paid parking in Yerevan work?

Yerevan introduced two zones in 2024. Red (centre) — 300 drams an hour, 2,000 a day. Blue (Arabkir and the outskirts) — 200 drams an hour. The first 15 minutes are free, and from 22:00 to 10:00 parking is free everywhere. White lines are service-only, green is EV-only.

Which app should I use to pay for parking in Yerevan?

Telcell and IDRAM are the easiest. MegaPay, Mobidram and EasyPay also work. They accept foreign cards, so you can pay without local currency. Street meters take cash with a small commission of around 200 drams. There is no need to pay an attendant on the pavement.

Where can I find covered parking in central Yerevan?

The underground car park under Freedom Square — 600 spaces, from 200 drams an hour, secured 24/7, paid on exit. There's also a garage at 15A Pushkin Street, and several central hotels run their own car parks; we can confirm the address before pickup.

Who are the people charging for parking on the street?

Sometimes someone in the centre puts boxes or chairs on a free space and asks for 200–500 drams to clear them. That isn't municipal parking. Real parking is paid only via the Telcell or IDRAM app, or at a meter — never in cash to a passer-by.

How long does it take to drive from Yerevan to Tbilisi?

5–6 hours on the M6 via the Bagratashen–Sadakhlo border, around 250 km. The crossing itself takes 30–60 minutes. The route runs through Dilijan and Vanadzor. It's available with our partners through a notarised power of attorney and a Green Card, prepared in 1–2 working days.

Can I rent a car in Yerevan for a month or longer?

Yes. From 28 days you get a 20–35 % discount off the daily rate. An economy car for a month is from $400–600 depending on the season. Several partners also offer 3- and 6-month packages with additional discounts and guaranteed vehicle swap if anything goes wrong.

Can I find an automatic car in Yerevan?

Yes, but automatics in Armenia cost $10–20 a day more than manuals and sell out first in summer. Book an automatic 4–6 weeks ahead during peak. If automatic is essential and you arrive in high season, message us in advance — we'll line up specific models for your dates.
