5.00This is a great day tour to enjoy beyond Baku. Sabina is a great guide, he is so well prepared and knowledgeable about any place we visit as well as a lot of trivia about the country that interest me. I dont normally hearing all guide talk during tours and listening to music in ny earphone kn the way but how she explain and the content really makes me listeni bf to her more and more. He's so good in his multilingual and can adjust time for each type of participant with different language she did 3 language during the trip which was awesome she fluent in English, Russian, and Azerbaijani/Turkish language. She can maintain giving essential information on each places and allow us to taking time to admire and taking pictures on each places which all of above i think qualities that difficult to achieve by tour guide, she is skillful and would love to have her again as my tour guide on next tour when I get back to Baku. Thank you very much from Febri.

5.00I had an excellent time visiting the Gobustan mud volcanoes and Yanar Dagh. Our tour guide, Riad, made the journey incredibly engaging with his humour and a wealth of information. Not only is he highly knowledgeable, but he also ensured everyone was comfortable and actively involved throughout the tour. In just one trip with them, I learned more about Azerbaijan than I did during the rest of my week there. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting.
Rial is a wonderful tour guide

5.00Took a sightseeing tour to Gobustan, fire temple, mosque, oil wells, mud volcano. Apart from the stunning places, I especially want to mention our wonderful terrific tour guide Riad. Rial is an erudite who knows a lot, is well-mannered and attentive, and quotes Griboyedov, Pushkin, a curious and pleasant man. Rial led the tour simultaneously in English, Russian and Turkish. Wonderfully organized.

4.00This trip is around the city of Bacu. It is a pleasant trip but the attractions included in the trip are not so interesting - I would say it is little boring... I you have limited days in Baku you can skip it - this company has other more interesting trips. Good value for money
Nice day trip

5.00We participated in the day trip to Guba and ended the day with wonderful memories. Our tour guide, Samir, was very kind and always attentive to all participants. He consistently provided information about each attraction we visited. The lunch was delicious. Although the brochure didn't include any pictures of the restaurant or the food, it definitely deserves a mention! Overall, it was a fantastic experience and we highly recommend this tour
