Check out Flydubai (based in Dubai) or Wizzair (based in Abu Dhabi) for the cheapest flight tickets. Because it is peak season, a round-trip ticket with a 20kg baggage allowance may cost AED 1,500 and up (subject to change). Following that, you can obtain your travel insurance policy through the PolicybazaarUAE website. For a five-day trip, it could cost up to AED 40. Finally, for this step, apply for an e-visa at https://evisa.mfa.am/. Your stay will only cost AED 28 if you obtain an e-visa.
Getting an accommodation
Accommodation is not expensive for a four-day, three-night stay in Yerevan, especially if you travel in a group. However, it is advised to search for the cheapest hostel, hotel, or studio apartment near Republic Square on booking.com or agoda.com. For budget travelers, four days of lodging may cost AED 400-500.
It is best to book your accommodations ahead of time to get the best possible price. Booking will not charge you anything, and some accommodations accept payment in person. As a result, there is no need to be concerned.
The recommendation is to stay in Yerevan’s center. Perhaps on Mashtots, Amiryan, or any other street near the parks and the square.
