4.00We booked our trip with Baku Heritage Tours and had a very good overall experience. I found the company on Google, and our travel planner Ilaha was excellent—always quick to respond on WhatsApp or call, very caring, and available whenever needed. We made a lot of back and forth with plans and price, and she was extremely patient, understanding, and helpful throughout. We were 7 people traveling in a comfortable Mercedes Vito with AC. Our driver Yalchin was professional, punctual, and spoke good English. He picked us up on time at the airport, helped settle our luggage (especially for our elderly parents), and throughout the trip drove smoothly without rushing. He was not a guide but an English-speaking driver who always made sure we were comfortable, assisted with communication, and even helped negotiate prices—like reducing the mud volcano jeep ride from 30 to 15. He also stopped at grocery stores and currency exchanges when needed (though note that banks in the city give better rates). The tours were well-organized, but there are a few areas that could be improved. For mosque visits, the company should advise on dress code—at Bibi Heybat Mosque we were denied entry due to clothing restrictions. We also missed the Abqora wine tasting as it requires advance booking, and our trip to Gabala coincided with rainy weather, so some activities weren’t possible. A little more proactive planning from the company would have made the experience even better. Restaurants in Baku were great, though outside the city they felt more touristy, so checking Google reviews before choosing helps. Our airport drop with another driver was also smooth and on time. Overall, we had a very positive experience with Baku Heritage Tours. With a bit more fine-tuning in planning and communication, they can make the trips even more seamless.
I highly Recommend Mr.Nazir

5.00Our Shahdag tour was incredible! We visited the stunning Candy Cane Mountains and the breathtaking Five Finger Mountain and Shahdag Mountain resort. The highlight was paragliding, where I got to soar above the beautiful landscapes. Nazir, our guide, was excellent—patient , friendly, and made the whole experience even better. An unforgettable trip!
