This was definitely the most perfect and well coordinated tour special thanks to guide Gani and driver Elman
Thank you for your kind words! We truly appreciate your feedback and are glad you enjoyed the tour.
Best tour possible in my life with guide Gani and driver Elman
The tour got altered due to weather conditions and the replacement tour was filled with false promises, a hot bus, and a guide that made me very uncomfortable. Would not recommend.
Highly recommended off the beaten path AZ experience. If you want to see stunning mountains and have lunch at a home in a village above the cloud line, take this tour. Yusif is great!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled you enjoyed the unique mountain experience and the village lunch. Yusif will be happy to hear your praise. Hope to welcome you again Warm regards, Baku Heritage Tours Team
It was a day full of activities. We have visited so many sites important not only to Azerbaijan but for the whole region as well. Well organised tour with excellent, very helpful, informative and caring guide Elshad. Highly recommended.
Thank you for your kind words! We’re delighted you enjoyed your trip. We look forward to welcoming you on more adventures! Best Regards, Your Gateway To Azerbaijan Baku Heritage Tours
This might have been my favourite tour in Azerbaijan. My tour guide Ruzi took great care of us on this rather adventurous trip. After a 2h drive to the forest we stopped for a quick snack (not lunch, but lunch will be late, so fill up a bit) and a change of vehicle from a AC comfy car to a old terrain going Russian Jeep which is needed to climb the rather narrow and winding roads up to the village. The driver was excellent in handling the vehicle and the roads that sometimes looked rather dangerous. Stops were made along the road. First one in a small gorge at at bride crossing, second one at a viewpoint, third one at the Eagles View (another viewpoint) before reaching the village where you visit the ethnographic museum (included) and if you like the village history museum (1 manat entrance fee) which is not part of the tour originally. The old mosque can also be included if you want. After this you head back, stop for a late lunch (1700) at the forest before getting back around 2000. They spoke of a waterfall in the tour but maybe I missed it or didn't understand what I was looking at. Also the Five finger mountains is a drive-by from the highway and not a stop, at least not on my tour. Also be prepared for bad weather. Bring a jacket, be prepared for rain and much lower temperatures than in Baku. Also bring good walking shoes since you will be climbing some slippery hills and paths to get to the viewpoints.
Thank you for your detailed and glowing review.Your kind words mean a lot to us, and we're delighted you enjoyed the tour and our service. We look forward to welcoming you on your second tour soon Best Regards, Your Gateway To Azerbaijan Baku Heritage Tours
Ruzi was our guide, he was very cool, friendly and informative. We all had a wonderful time as a mixed 'European' group of 6. We were lucky enough to be able to visit the mosque in Khinaliq and Ruzi also entertained us with his linguistic skills and knowledge about the country. And we also played guess the person game on the way back on his recommendation. A really fun tour thanks to Ruzi and everyone else on the tour 😊
Thank you for your wonderful review. We're delighted you had a fun.He'll be happy to hear your kind words.We hope to see you again soon.. :) Best Regards, Your Gateway To Azerbaijan Baku Heritage Tours
