5.00I had an exceptional experience with Old City Tours during my trip to Qabala, Azerbaijan. They provided prompt pickup from my hotel, ensuring a seamless start to the journey. The itinerary included visits to the historic Juma Mosque in Shamakhi, the stunning Seven Beauties Waterfall, and an exhilarating ride on the Tufandag Mountain Resort cable car. The guide was knowledgeable and attentive, making the tour both informative and enjoyable. I highly recommend Old City Tours .
