How I Traveled from Amsterdam to Yerevan by Land in 5 Days!

In this video, I share my epic journey from Amsterdam to Yerevan by land! I traveled without flying for 5 days to reach the capital of Armenia, Yerevan. I took 4 trains, 2 buses, and 1 minivan and covered 4626km/2874mi!

This overland journey took me through 10 countries: 🇳🇱 Netherlands, 🇩🇪 Germany, 🇦🇹 Austria, 🇸🇮 Slovenia, 🇭🇷 Croatia, 🇷🇸 Serbia, 🇧🇬 Bulgaria, 🇹🇷 Turkey, 🇬🇪 Georgia, and 🇦🇲 Armenia. And some interesting land border crossing too!

I will show you all the modes of transport I used to make this overland adventure possible, from scenic train journey to dangerous minivan ride! And also how I planned overland routes and travel hacks for crossing borders, booking tickets, and saving money when you travel without flying.

Let us know what part of the journey from Amsterdam to Yerevan was your favorite. 👍🏻
