    It's an excellent tour. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Baku who is short on time. The supplier of this activity is top notch!

    Tour guide was...

    Stephanie_H, Jul 2026
    Tour guide was knowledgeable and spoke both English and Russian. The sites were really nice. Be prepared to be gone all day.

    Great guide and driver. Poor behaviour by the company.

    Paul_H, Jun 2026
    Our guide and driver were excellent. They were friendly, good fun and very professional. The driving was safe and sensible. The tour is a long day but definitely worth doing. The reason I have given only 4 stars is that after I had booked and paid for the tour I received a message saying that we needed to bring cash to pay for the the 4X4 to get up Besh Barmeg. This was not mentioned prior to booking and appears to be a way to make the trip appear cheaper than it actually is. While it is only £5 per person, that is not the point. When I questioned it with the company I was told that I could wait in the van instead of going up the mountain, which I clearly wasn't going to do. I'm very disappointed that the company is behaving in this way, which I view as dishonest. On another note, if you use the restaurant at lunchtime don't order the lamb kebab, I got three very small bits of bone and fat with tiny pieces of tough meat on them. Everything that other people ordered seemed a be better value.

    Sarah_B, May 2026
    Our guide Ali was great. He did a good job explaining things. For me Candy Cane mountain was the highlight. Due to the weather we were unable to go to Besh Barmag mountain.

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

    Robert_R, Apr 2026
    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....

    Outstanding

    Bobby_L, Apr 2026
    Our tour guide was very informative and knowledgeable about the different places we went. The candycane mountain and the mosque were beautiful places to see.

    Loved it - but coordinate tours to prevent overlap of sites

    Darren_W, Jan 2026
    Definitely worth it - Pink lake better than I thought it would be, a few flights of steps for Besh Barnag but again worth it (tea and treats at the top!), and the Candy Mountains were like something out of this world! Only downside is it included the Bibiheybat Mosque, which we visited on a different tour, so we had to wait around.

    Excellent tour highly...

    Haya_A, Jan 2026
    Excellent tour highly recommended from Baku Our tour guide was Sameer very knowledgeable and humorous

    A must do tour in Baku!!!

    Mirella_S, Dec 2025
    AMAZING!! I had one of the most incredible days of my trip with this tour! We saw such beautiful sites and the guide was so kind! The driver was very welcoming and learned so much from the guide ⭐️

    Good tour

    Jose_G, Dec 2025
    Ali our guide was a great tour guide and tour was good with enough time to do and see everything. Recommend tour. The meeting place was near hotel even without phone gps

    Excelent tour

    Martin_K, Oct 2025
    ​Our guide, Samir, was exceptionally kind and well-organized. His explanations were easy to understand, and his recommendations were excellent. This was very good work, and I highly recommend this trip.

    Nice trip, but uncomfortable bus

    Flora_C, Oct 2025
    This was a nice trip, but bus was not comfortable. I wish more comfortable buses would be available for longer trips.

    Average tour

    THOMAS_C, Oct 2025
    Average tour Drop off not done at same place as collection place - ended up standing in the street not knowing what was going on. Brought for lunch in a restaurant where clearly the guide was going to get tipped for by the place. Had to wait for at least an hour and Food wasn't even great. Likewise stopped at a shop “to buy cigarettes” if we wanted … nothing to do with the tour. Bus AC wasnt working and therefore full of flies and too hot Candy mountain nothing exceptional. Guide’s english wasnt great so hard to understand. No speaker in the bus so couldnt hear what he was saying when the window was opened anyway. Five fingers rock and pink lake ok to see Not worth the price in mi view

    Must experience this tour

    MohamedAsraf_M, Oct 2025
    All the attractions are must see. Pink lake was amazing, traditional lunch was good. Candy mountain was so beautiful. Not so many people were there.

    It was a great tour...

    Hayley_D, Sep 2025
    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. Samir 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.

    Candy mountain/ pink lake / Beshbarmag Mountain Tour 🗻

    Jonathan_F, Sep 2025
    We really enjoyed our tour to the Candy mountains, the pink lake, Beshbarmag mountain and Bibi-Heybat mosque. Our tour guide Asaf was very knowledgeable and our driver Karam was professional and drove safely. Thank you.

    Scenic views of Azerbaijan

    Roberta_B, Aug 2025
    During this tour we enjoyed scenic views of Azerbaijan country and nature in one day. Everything was perfect. Lunch was good.

    A great way to see some...

    Ghislaine_S, Jul 2025
    A great way to see some of the scenery not too far from Baku City Centre. The Candy Cane Mountains and the walk at Beshbarmak were the highlight of the trip, but the other stops were interesting too.

    Good experience

    Montazar_A, Jun 2025
    Good experience. Cotton candy mountains was definitely the highlight of this itinerary. Some areas such as the pink lake was underwhelming. Tour guide Ali made the experience much better. Very knowledgeable and friendly.

    We had a great guid, Ali,...

    Giovanni_S, May 2025
    We had a great guid, Ali, telling us many interesting things about the coutry, loved the candy and five finder mountains, including hike, find the Forrest (short stop and back) and the pink lake (bad weather, but also not close to water) dissapointing. But otherwise was a great tout

    Interesting day tour

    Mona_M, Apr 2025
    I loved the hike to 5-finger mountain. I wondered at the magical striations at Candy Cane mountain. I was a bit disappointed that we did not enter the forest area, except for a quick photo stop at a viewpoint.

    Beautiful experience

    Sachin_D, Apr 2025
    Kudos to our guide Samir. He was excellent and knowledgeable, and helpful. Overall, loved the experience, stunning views.

    Great day out

    Lauren_M, Mar 2025
    Lovely day trip Our guide was Elchin, he was great at explaining the site and answered all our questions. It’s a small group which was lovely. If traveling during the offseason I would recommend bringing snacks as not many restaurants were open

    Okay

    Jennifer_K, May 2026
    It was okay. You can really skip the Five Finger Mountain. Especially when considering the bumpy path. Otherwise, the tour was good.

    Beautiful tour

    Martin_S, Apr 2026
    It was a very informative tour, where unfortunately the weather didn't really play along , Pink Lake and Candy Mountains would have worked even more in sunshine and Besh Barmag was completely enveloped by clouds, nevertheless to recommend
