5.00All went very well and was perfect. Habil is a very helpful friendly professional trustful guide, with a thorough knowledge of the English language and of the places we visited (incl. local history). He is such a warm personality and highly motivated guide. The guide and tour (Sheki, wineries exoerience, Qobustan, volcano mud) were extremely good, very flexible (appreciate this!). We felt like at home. Thanks a lot, Habil, for making our stay in Azerbaijan remarkable (highly recommendable!).

5.00I requested for a customised trip: one way trip from Baku to Sheki. I asked a lot of questions before reserving the trip, Habil is always patient and quick response. Decided to reserve the trip with Habil is the best decision I be made. He is so kind, and informative, takes care of the customers quite well. We visited almost all the attractions in Sheki and also a nice place where can have a full view of Sheki. I would definitely highly recommend this tour and you will never regret. 我预约了巴库前往舍基的单程旅行，包含舍基的景点。事实证明选择了Habil是非常明智的决定。Habil非常好沟通，我们一路都聊的很开心。在景点，Habil会做非常好的讲解，而且有问必答。在路程中也跟我分享了很多关于阿塞拜疆的信息。Habil同时也非常耐心，非常周到，会告知沿途哪里有好的咖啡店，哪里可以下车休息，还非常好心地提醒沿途如果想下车拍照，可以随时告诉他。Habil是我遇到的最好的向导，这个trip也是我参加过的最棒的trip。
Best Tourist Guide !! Habil :) Thank you for everything

5.00I had the pleasure of being guided by Habel on a tour of Azerbaijan and it was an unforgettable experience. His knowledge of the city's history and culture was impressive. He is very considerate, engaging and ensured that our group felt comfortable all through. Their passion for the city was evident, and it made the tour so much more enjoyable. I would highly recommend Habel to anyone looking to explore Azerbaijan. Also to mention, the homestay arranged by his family was quite nice.
