A terrible bus station, it's even a sin to call this building a bus station, some incomprehensible guys are working, there is no dispatcher at all, there are no normal regular buses, only minibuses and incomprehensible taxis to Yerevan.It is a pity that in such a beautiful city as Gyumri, after all, the second largest city in Armenia, the bus station is in a deplorable state😑
My favorite place, because the Gyumri market starts from the train station. Almost everything can be found in this market. There are few places like this left))
Very dirty, not comfortable, not cozy, not comfortable. Zero at all. The weight of the city has changed for the better. And the Bus station was like that and remained dirty and old
We were traveling by LuxBus company. The driver smoked the whole trip. Violated traffic rules. The first car was not allowed to cross the border and no one knew about it. We waited for the second car at the border for about 2.5 hours. 2 more people were traveling with us and they waited for the car for 4 hours at night without information about where it was located. In general, I do not advise anyone, it is better to overpay than to drive a car that was on those. about 20 years ago. She didn't keep up, she had to be constantly running. 0 cars out of 10
This is not a bus station, but a kind of hut with a broken playground around! It is sad that the bus station in the second city of Armenia is in such a sad state!
The station itself is of course a little scary with the old days, but people! People are very friendly and happy to help. It is best to go with minibuses, having discussed the price in detail
In February 2023 (off-season, as far as I understand) I drove to Yerevan in 3500 AMD.
As of October 2023. Minibuses
They depart to Yerevan every half hour until 19:00 (1500֏ -Gazelle / 1600֏ Mercedes Vito)
In Stepanavan, I do not know the interval at 9 or 9:30, and there seems to be the last one at 16:00
The most terrible train station in my life. There is no schedule! The minibus goes only after a full set of people. We waited 1.5 hours for departure!!! Visually, it doesn't even look like a train station. We need either repair and beautification of the territory, or demolish everything and build a normal, functioning train station. 1 Gyumri-Yerevan ticket costs 1500 AMD, the trip time is approximately 2.5 hours.
Unfortunately, there are very few routes
(For example, there is transport to Vanadzor, but no further - you will not leave for Dilijan and Sevan)
The absence of any schedule (well, at least at the checkout by hand)
, the woman, however, works there quite nice and is ready to tell everything you ask about the routes
It's hard to say anything about this place, just a platform with minibuses and a couple of stalls where you can find out about the schedule. I didn't have time to see anything else
Horror. Mud, puddles, toilet closed, packs of stray dogs.
But as a time machine for those who want to visit the 90s will do. But you can find a taxi for a reasonable price
