Network Coverage in Armenia
Armenia has three main mobile operators: VivaCell-MTS, Ucom, and Team Telecom Armenia. VivaCell-MTS has the widest 4G coverage across the country and is the primary operator HelloRoam uses for Armenia plans.
Yerevan, the capital, has excellent 4G coverage throughout the city. Cascade Complex, Republic Square, the old city, and the airport corridor all have strong signal. Coverage extends well to the airport at Zvartnots, which is about 12 kilometers west of the city centre.
Armenia's main tourist routes are well served. Lake Sevan has 4G in the main town of Sevan and at popular beach areas on the lakeshore. Dilijan National Park has coverage in Dilijan town. The monastery corridor from Yerevan including Geghard Monastery, Noravank, and Tatev Monastery areas have 4G in the nearby village centers, though signal can be limited at the monastery sites themselves which are often in remote gorges or hillside locations.
The Armenian highlands and high mountain areas along the Iranian and Turkish borders have very limited coverage. The Ararat valley visible from Yerevan has 4G in the towns. Australian travellers should confirm their handset is unlocked and supports the local network bands.

Cat
On a trip to Europe, my hotel Wi-Fi was so slow and outside Wi-Fi was unreliable. I couldn’t take it anymore so I got helloroam for a few days. It was tricky to set up correctly because of the primary settings (with my original number). But I reached out to their customer service via WhatsApp. Super responsive and helpful, with specific and clear steps to troubleshoot. Appreciate having 4G roaming instead of being stuck with in and out Wi-Fi during my trip!!
Rated 5 out of 5 by this reviewer
Very good experience! The eSIM was easy to set up and worked great in London. It was much cheaper than it would have been to use my own operator there.
