The bike rental service is a disaster. You get the feeling you're bothering the woman in charge when you ask questions. The center doesn't have any tools, not even for adjusting the saddle or putting on/taking off training wheels on a child's bike. Furthermore, the bikes aren't maintained; all the chains are rusty, and the tire pressure is generally incorrect. There's no pump available either. The bikes are barely suitable for a short ride around the lake in Dilijan, certainly not for long trips. It's a real shame. If the center invested in a toolbox and a monthly bike service, it would be great, but as it stands, the bikes are destined for the scrap heap.

Great place, super-informative and very helpful 🩷 A very special "thank you" to Ms.Alyona who helped me book a place for Giumri shuttle as my card was rejected by GG app. Before she answered & explained all my numerous questions in detail, thank you so much !

This isn't just an information center where you can get help, information, and equipment for rent, but also a coworking space and even a small and charming museum. Don't miss it! Thanks to the staff!

100 out of 10!) A modern, beautifully designed visitor center, I highly recommend it. The staff explains everything in great detail and clearly, and they provide maps of the city and surrounding area with hourly route schedules. A huge thank you! There's a coworking space. The area around Dilijan is full of excellent hiking trails and attractions.
