A very good way to spend half a day - Jamal was a vert good guide to the Fire Temple, which was a very worthwhile sight (Fire Mountain perhaps less so). He was also very responsive to my wish to alter the itinerary. a bit, accompanying me as I walked around. Heydar Aliyev Center rather than going inaide (which was on my agenda for the next day). The driver was good and careful. I was also grateful that my request to change the time of the trip could be accommodated. This was also a chance to see a much less elegant area of Baku and its environs.

Amazing Experience with Tahir - I went with my wife and we were led by Tahir and Arif for the trip. They came to pick us up on time and gave us a thorough tour of all the attractions on the list. The best part was that Tahir is a well-read person who has a keen interest in history, politics, and knows a lot about different cultures. So it was particularly interesting to talk about not only various aspects of Azerbaijan's local culture and politics, but also its relationship with the neighboring countries in light of the historical events that have happened in the past. Overall, I would higly recommend Tahir and Arif to anyone who is considering to book this trip. Cheers.
