Transportation

By most measures, transportation in Armenia is quite inexpensive. A ride in an intercity marshrutka, minibus, or bus in Yerevan should cost you 100 drams (approx. 20 cents). They're fairly common. The single Metro line, which runs every 5 to 7 minutes and traverses north/south, is likewise 100 drams each trip. Alternatively, you may use a cab, which costs around 100 drams each kilometer (generally a minimum charge of 400 to 600 drams).

Let's also have a look at cab. In Armenia, taxi service is not particularly expensive, and it is sometimes the preferable option when you are in a hurry. The cost of each kilometer is 100 AMD, with a minimum payment of 600 AMD (from 1 to 4 km). The usual cost of a taxi journey inside Yerevan's city center is 600-700 AMD, however this may increase during rush hours.

Most major cities and many smaller villages are served by buses and minivans (locally known as marshrutka) for only 100 dram (less than $0.30). Buses are means of transportation that generally run throughout the day but on a set timetable.. Vans, on the other hand, are more frequent and speedier than buses, and they operate on a variety of routes around the country.
