    Beautiful tour of Shamakhy-Gabal, were very pleased! The day flew by in one breath, the organization is excellent, without haste or overlap. We had time to see the Juma Mosque, tickle our nerves on the Zarnava Suspension Bridge, admire the forests of Ismaila and the Seven Beauties Falls. Lunch was in a restaurant with national cuisine with stunning mountain views (food fresh, brought quickly). At the end of the tour climbed the rope in Tufandaga - the views are super! A great way to safely see key locations in one day. I recommend it!

    The trip went very well. I liked the historical sites and beautiful views in Shamakhi. I was impressed by the nature in Gabala, especially the mountains and Lake Nohur. Tufandag was a special treat: the cable car offers a stunning view of the mountains and the entire valley. The tour was comfortable, and the guide explained everything clearly. The route was well planned, with enough time for rest and photos. The tour left a very pleasant impression — I recommend it.
