Diana_G, Oct 2019

this trip was superb. The guide Suleyman was superb. Not only did he provide detailed information about the sites history etc - he also provided n Azerbaijan 'experience' going to clean local eating places, sweet shops etc. I cannot recommend him highly enough and as a female traveller on my own I felt safe at tall times. I would suggest to anyone that he be contacted to arrange any/all your Azerbaijan tours. He was always on time and accurate with estimates etc. I was very happy with his service.
