One of the best trips I ever had, great group and guide Behbud, he allowed us to spend as much time as needed at the sights though we just arrived back at around 0:30h the next day. He was very passionate about guiding us around and explained a lot about daily life in Azerbaijan. His English was very good since he studied in the UK. Highly recommended.

We have a great tour guide and very helpful (03MAY2024). Only issue I have is the trip planning and I highly recommend it to be at least TWO (2) days. We spent most of our time sitting in vehicle. As a foreigner who wants to explore Azerbaijan but has minimal clue of the distance/ things to see, it is better to be honest and up-front. I rather pay for 2 days than a single day.

Absolutely terrible — A terrible racist guide with poor time management and social skills. This tour has lots of “hidden sites” including a winery, sweet and honey shops — they took up so much time that we have only 10-15 minutes for the proper attractions (eg Sheki and Caravanesi). The guide also stared at and rushed me (not the caucasians) rudely to complete my lunch even though the main problem was his time management. To improve the tour, the operator should specify and consider separating the Russian/Turkish participants from English-speaking ones. The commentary was sparse and non-informative. PS I found out that you can order a Bolt from Baku to the attractions at half the price.

The guide Alex/Scander (?) was nice, he could speak English, Turkish and Russian. The tour was way longer than expected (8am-11.30pm) and with some adaptions to the original program. Many smoking breaks, many shopping stops. So quite touristic in the end. The nature you can see is beautiful, the drive and roads very scenic - so if you want to see some landscapes of the country it’s perfect. The vehicle was nice and comfortable, the group size very good (7).

It's a lot of driving, but the changing landscapes are stunning. The activities were all very interesting, and our guide gave great information about them all. The lunch location was gorgeous, but the food much less so.

What a fantastic trip. Our tour guide Sabuhi had been just amazing! I cannot thank him more. He can make the newness of travelling in a group in a jiffy and can create a positive aura across!! Totally recommend. Also, one trip with these guys can help you understand the history of every region you are passing by and its importance in their culture and economy. In simple terms, you get 3 times the value you pay for. Being multi lingual and extremely fluent in English is an added advantage. Kudos Sabuhi!
