This region has always been one of the biggest and one of the most beautiful parts of Azerbaijan! So, if you decide to visit other Azerbaijani cities, we highly recommend you to see Quba! Guba has been founded in the XV century and is located 165km to the north from Baku. Khinaliq village is the most remote village among all others in Quba. It is also the highest village as it is located in the middle of Caucasian mountains. And this remoteness is exactly what helped the inhabitants of the village to survive from the invasions. The history of this village goes right back until the Albanian period. The remains of ancient caves of early humans are still left in this territory between the mountains. Due to its long history, Khinaliq village is considered one of the oldest inhabited places in the world and has been included in the UNESCO list of World Historical Monuments.

What are people saying about Baku

Hiba_M, Jul 2026

One of the best group...

One of the best group tours. Huseyin as a host of this trip was an amazing communicator and knowledgeable to provide us with the history of each place. I faced a problem to navigate my way to the pick up point and he made sure to wait and pick me up from that spot. I highly recommend anyone travelling solo to be part of this journey. The hike up to the khinaliq village for views and the food is definitely worth it all.

A Gobustan excursion

It Was an interesting tour. I learnt a lot at Gobustan stone art, I loved visiting the Zoroastrism temple and museum. It did not particularly like the tour guide, there was an unwilling to help make photos and a disdain for what he deemed "tourist behaviour". Go on this tour if tou really love nature, history and culture, it is not a fancy tour but educative.

A beautiful day iut in nature

This was a very nice tour. Musa the guide was very good and made great photos. I enjoyed being out in nature and seeing diverse landscapes. Candy cane reminded me of rainbow mountain in Peru but not as spellbinding. Khinalig village was very beautiful and we enjoyed having lunch with a local family. We had amazing photo stops and it was beautiful.

No Drama Airport pickup

Excellent experience. The driver reached out a couple of days before on WhatsApp to introduce himself. On pick up day my flight was a little late and arrived after midnight. but no worries, the driver was where he said he would be with a sign. Car was luxury and his driving was excellent. I highly recommend and will not hesitate to use next time I'm in Baku.

Great day out and overview of major attractions

A very enjoyable day out! This tour takes in the main attractions around Baku. Our guide, Saed, was fun and friendly and very considerate, always preparing us in advance for the next thing, what to do and not to do, pointing out the toilets and refreshments…. If you are only here a few days, this is the perfect way to cover a lot of ground quickly! Highly recommended!

Shahdag Sightseeing and Candy Cane mountain Tour Lunch Included

Muhammad_R, May 2026

Amazing experience

We had an amazing Shahdag tour with our guide Murad! The trip covered so many beautiful places including Candy Cane Mountain, Pink Lake, 4 Finger Mountain, Shahdag, and Quba City. Everything was very well organized and enjoyable. At Shahdag, me and my wife had a fantastic time doing the Alpine Coaster, zip line, and chair lift rides — such a fun and exciting experience with breathtaking views! We also enjoyed a delicious traditional lunch in the beautiful Gachresh Forest near Quba, which made the trip even more special and relaxing. The bus was comfortable, the driver was professional and safe, and Murad was friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable throughout the tour. He made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying the journey. Just one thing that the time at shahdag i.e 2 hrs is a bit short so maybe extend the time to cover the activities. Otherwise Highly recommended tour and guide for anyone visiting Azerbaijan!

Fun in the Mountains...on the Caspian Coast...

This tour was definitely well planned and built for fun....the highlights are definitely the Candy Cane Mountains and the main attraction without a doubt was the Besh Bermak Mountain with stunning views of the Caucasus and the Caspian Sea simultaneously....we saw eagles just flying by like airplanes....Namik was a really great guide he is very knowledgeable but most importantly he was always keen on making us having fun even during the rides between stops we played trivia and had a blast...our driver Mahmoud had a difficult and challenging task of driving off road and penetrating the Baku traffic and he did it with grace and efficiency....I had a lovely time....

Great highlight tour of Baku

I chose the private (with pickup) option for this tour, as I was travelling with my senior parent, and I wanted her to be comfortable with the pace. We were picked up promptly at our hotel, and were joined by our tour guide shortly thereafter. Because it was cold (early March), our tour started at the Heydar Aliyev Centre, and we proceeded to through all the highlights of the city in sequence. I have been on a lot of tours, and most of the guides are always kind, considerate, well informed, and welcoming. This guide, Elcan, went above and beyond. A young, sprightly, enthusiastic person, he put up with two older ladies traipsing along at their own pace without complaint. He didn't hurry us through the tour (even though he could easily have), and took the time to explain each attraction to us in detail. He even helped my mother over slightly trickier terrain, and he absolutely did not have to do that. It was much appreciated though. A word of appreciation for the tour company as well; they were communicative, prompt and mostly quite flexible. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour.

It was a great tour...

It was a great tour although through no fault of the tour pickup up and drop off was difficult due to formula 1 road closure. Murad was wonderful, with great knowledge of the sites we saw and did everything he could to get us close to our hotel when returning. Not too keen on where we went for lunch. Great to see the sites of Azerbaijan.

Unforgettable Day at Gobustan and the Mud Volcanoes

Amazing experience! Our guide Riad made Gobustan and the mud volcanoes unforgettable—full of history, fun stories, and breathtaking views. Everything was well organized, we never felt rushed, and the volcanoes were truly unique. Highly recommend this tour!
