- L9974KImarianat00Private city tourPrivate Baku city tour was organized and interesting. I would recommend you take this tour as soon as you can.
- Traveler5629067838700Nice city tour experience of BakuOur Guide Mr. Khan, he was on time to Pickup, and he showed all the places with complementing few Hindi words. Unfortunately we went on Monday and few places were closed. So suggest all to avoid local sightseeing on Monday. Everything was perfect.
- nks194700My Friendly GuideI contacted Guided Azerbaijan (GA) before leaving from India. Located them on Internet. Was in touch with there executive Ms. Lamia. I wanted private taxi to pick me up from Baku Airport. Drive to Gabala stay for two nights then drive back to Baku and stay for four nights with all site seeing and shopping etc. with guide. Had number of changes in the program to suit my requirements. Lamia was very prompt in responding and making changes. I even talked to her over telephone. She was very pleasant and provided all relevant information. GA did not ask for any advance, the car and guide were at the airport as we arrived in Baku. We went straight to Gabala used the car for four days. On the fourth day Lamia and her colleague Fouad came to see us in the hotel, that is when we made the payment. We requested for some adjustments in the middle of itinerary and they gladly agreed to same. They were very professional and polite. I wish them all success and would recommend them to all my friends planning to go to Azerbaijan.
- josefA8678QO00New and Old BakuI would like to thank you for the tour today. Ameen despite of being very knowledgeable about the history, culture and the country, he is a very pleasant person. Our tour supposed to be 3 to 4 hours and at the end I had a gift of 7 hours, learning with him and having good time chating. It was a pleasure to meet them and know about the country. Thanks a lot.

- 396roshanm00A trip to the pastA great way to spend half the day by visiting the ancient archaeological sites of the ghobustan plane. It was really interesting to see the sights and the places that were once used by ancient people. My tour guide Naira was soo helpful by explaining each and every thing on the tour. Thanks Lamia for arranging such an amazing tour!!
- 396roshanm00Journey to the highest habitable place in azerbaijanIt was a wonderful place to visit and the village is the highest residential area in azerbaijan. The route to get there is just so scenic surrounded by picturesque mountains. Thanks Lamia from Guided Azerbaijan for suggesting me this place to visit and organising my trip. It was quite an interesting experience!!
- 396roshanm00It was an amazing adventure!!I visited gabala during July and my favourite part of this tour was the cable car ride and the biking up the hill! It was such an amazing experience. Great kudos for Lamia and Naira from guided azerbaijan for organising and coordinating this trip.
- Jardine5400Great tour would recommend.A personalised tour for just the 2 of us. Thoroughly enjoyable Ach was very knowledgeable providing us with a wealth of information of the history of Baku and Azerbaijan.
- pratyaa201500Exceptional Tour Company!Our 5-day tour in Azerbaijan was nothing short of magical, and it wouldn't have been possible without the outstanding tour company and their fantastic team - Faud, Sherif, and Naira! Right from the start, Faud impressed us with his top-notch planning skills. He effortlessly handled all our queries, and his quick responses made us feel well-prepared and excited for the trip. Faud's attention to detail and passion for what he does set the tone for an incredible journey. Sherif, our remarkable driver! He was like a superhero on wheels, ensuring we never had to walk more than a step. Every time we stopped, Sherif brought the car right to us, making travel effortless and stress-free. But that's not all - when my shoes got caked in mud at the mud volcanoes, Sherif came to the rescue with a cloth and water to clean them! His thoughtful and caring nature truly made a difference, and we couldn't have asked for a better chauffeur. And then there's Naira - our vibrant and knowledgeable guide. She was the life of the tour, making every moment filled with excitement and laughter. Naira's passion for her country shone through as she shared captivating stories about Azerbaijan's history, culture, and traditions. Her open-mindedness and helpfulness were invaluable, allowing us to experience the country like locals while still benefiting from her expert guidance. Together, Faud, Sherif, and Naira formed an unbeatable trio that made our journey truly unforgettable. Their warmth and friendliness made us feel more like old friends exploring a new place than just tourists. Throughout the trip, we got a real sense of the heart and soul of Azerbaijan, and it's all thanks to this incredible team. In conclusion, we wholeheartedly recommend this tour company to anyone looking for an unforgettable adventure in Azerbaijan. Faud's efficient planning, Sherif's unparalleled driving skills, and Naira's infectious enthusiasm make them an exceptional team. If you want to experience the best of Azerbaijan with genuine and caring individuals, then look no further. Hats off to Faud, Sherif, and Naira for making our journey one for the books! We'll cherish the memories and the new friendships we've made for a lifetime. Thank you all for an incredible experience! 🌟🚗🎉
- lynnehC5971VZ00Good tour, amazing scenery, but long driveEnjoyed our tour with Nurlan as our guide and Jamal as our driver. We learned a lot about the country and the area we visited. Jamal did a great job driving up to Khinalig and back. One drawback was that the back windows of the car were heavily tinted. Difficult to see the scenery without rolling down the windows which were manual and not easy to roll. In Khinalig, we climbed up to the top of the hill with the cell tower — great views, but the guide should have stayed near us as we climbed up and down since both of us are in our 70s. Enjoyed seeing the mosque and Jewish area of Guba. We elected not to go to the Genocide Memorial as it was getting late in the day.
- 623anupamam00Warm and comfortable tourTour was well planed by Mr Amith, even though we were there for a short span of time he had managed to cover the major sites of the city. I enjoyed the tour and it was Awesome ...
- ReyhanA35000Luxurious, informative tour, and all this with Sputnik Travel!Really, I am delighted with the Sputnik Travel team, which organized this tour last weekend on June 10-11, 2023. Thanks to painstaking and well-coordinated work of Sputnik Travel, led by its leader Ilgar Mustafayev, we were lucky to get to know this atmospheric, picturesque place and taste the whole spectrum products of this winery during the tasting, accompanied by a delicious dinner on the veranda with a panoramic view of the Savalan Valley, which delights the eye and enhances the appetite. The organization of this tour is beyond praise. If you are a gourmet traveler,then this is the place for you! You will fully enjoy a lot of positive emotions, coupled with gastronomic pleasure, seasoned with useful information thanks to the sommelier competently guides tours for tourists. The entire wide range of wine and vodka-cognac products can be purchased there by the end of dinner. Next, we visited the luxurious lavender fields, where you can also get acquainted with all lavender products and purchase them during the walk. Further, our path lay on the Seven Beauties waterfall, a landmark place in this area, where tourists come from all over the world. I would also note a very competent choice of accomodation where we were the first to stay this season, within walking distance of a beautiful forest area, where you will be served fragrant local samovar tea during break fast, which you can drink endlessly to the singing of birds and the surrounding picturesque nature. All this is a well-thought-out tactic of the entire friendly team of Sputnik Travel, thanks to which every most spoiled tourist will find a lot of interesting and necessary things for himself, and most importantly, what he sees will remain in his memory for many, many years. Travel with the Sputnik team, and you will not be mistaken in your choice of travel company. All the necessary information on tours can be found on their Facebook page, Instagram, Telegram with the same name of the company.

Great day trip! Driver and guide arrived always on time with a nice clean minivan....
We had a private family tour and visited Diribaba Mausoleum in Maraza, Shamakhi Juma Mosque, Sheki Khan's Palace, Caravanserai and Church of Kish. All the sights were very interesting and our tour guide was great, she gave us a lot of information about the sights. We also stopped by the roadside for some local tea and bread. The trip back to Baku was very nice next to the mountains.
It was a very nice experience!
It is a full day trip, definately worth it! Thanks for organising!
I really recommend the tour with Guided Azerbaijan!

We went from Baku, the journey is quite long but smooth. Parvana was really kind, helpful and caring. We stopped at the mosque, then to sheki palace and karvabsaray, the silk road journey was interesting. Parvana was very knowledgeable and entertaining. The road was under construction when we went there, she and the kind driver try as much as possible to go home with another alternative road to ensure our journey is comfortable. She even treat us tea and petal roses jam at the pretty albanian temple. Overall the journey was great. Thank you Parvana, big hugs from both of us

Great day trip. It is a long day but each of the places visited was worth it. The Sheki Palace and Albanian Church were especially highlights. Really worth doing.

Took this tour with our guide Ulkar. She was super insightful and went at our pace. It’s a long drive to Sheki but well worth the drive. Make sure you stop in to the sweet shop in Sheki and get some goodies. Thank you again Ulkar for a great tour

This tour was on my fourth day in Azerbaijan, and my third tour with Guided Azerbaijan - Nurlan was such a great guide that I was happy he took this one too.
The day started with hotel pickup and about an hour drive to Juma Mosque. From there we headed north into the Caucus mountains and went to Sheki to see the palace and the caravansarie. Sheki was a very important stop on the Silk Road trade route because the climate of the area is perfect for the growth of mulberry trees, which happen to the perfect home for silk worms. In fact, silk production is still an industry in this area. We stopped in Sheki at the halva shop - and that stuff is phenomenal! I brought back treats for my friends back home and they are still talking about it - it’s just that good.
We left Sheki and went to Kish to see the Christian church there. Nurlan once again was fantastic and full of information that really made it come alive for me. It’s lovely and peaceful and nearly unadorned. It’s a museum now and there are relics housed there from its past life. I loved this little spot, it touched my heart.
Make no mistake, this is a LONG day. In fact, they offer this as a two day tour and if I’d had the time I’d have stretched it into two days so I could have appreciated it more. Also, as a note to less experienced travelers, the further you get from Baku, the less… luxurious… things become. Bring a few packets of travel Kleenex and be prepared for the squat style toilets. It’s an adventure.
