Well organized short trip....We had an amazing experience... - We are Indians living in Dubai and wanted to spend few days in Baku relaxing. Since my trip was not pre-planned, I decided to take an airport taxi to my hotel and plan my itinerary while I am at Baku. Mr. Tarlan and Panorma Travel was recommended by one of my friends who visited Baku few years ago to try and see if we like his service. To our surprise, right from Airport till dropping us back at the end of our trip, we had an amazing experience. We were two families and our guide Mr. Tarlan made us as comfortable as we were in a very familiar place. I whole heartedly recommend Panorama Travel for your next planning to Baku/Azerbaijan. Things to know; - Choose your hotel and inform them. They will most likely get you a price cheaper than booking.com - Give your preferences and let Panorama travel get the best accommodation that suits your needs - You will feel the advantage incase of any cancellations or change of plan even after reaching the hotel. - They were with us in every place we went. Literally every place like window shopping, suggesting cheap bazars for shopping, suggesting best restaurants, suggesting what to eat and what not to. Joined us along on night walking, street sopping etc.. You name it we enjoyed it like a local. - Driving in Baku/Azerbaijan can be hectic as no one respects basic traffic rules and chances of a police stopping you is absolutely guaranteed, at least 3 times a day. Since he drove us around, we saw may tourists stopped by police on road but we were safe. - Mr. Tarlan suggested cheap and best shopping spots known only to locals and saved us from lot of hassle, especially from counterfeit products... - My best experience in Azerbaijan was on food. Without Tarlan this wouldn't have been possible For those who plan to visit Azerbaijan, I stongly recommend this agency, especially Mr. Tarlan

Rare, unique and unusual. - Stunning petroglyphs reserve, UNESCO heritage site is the place that took us to the unique world of ancient humans. The stone engravings, scattered on huge boulders, strange landscapes, a mystery to be unraveled. There is an admission ticket to this area and one needs to hire a taxi from Baku to reach this place. The Museum, a 3 km from the area is also a must to understand and appreciate the incredible history of this civilisation. From there, a journey to rare Mud Volcanoes reveals the wonderful geological formations, natural and mesmerizing. The way the little Mud Volcanoes make sounds gurgle and ooze is something seen to be believed. A must to see these rare unusual sights.

Great 2 days tour - I want to thank Panorama travel for very qualitative services, provided to our family during the 2 days of traveling in mountain regions of Azerbaijan: Gabala, Sheki, Kish etc. We did appreciate the quality of driving and contact with driver Fuad - very careful driving, through long hours, showing all top sights and good listening to client's wishes. I can really recommend his services to others. Kind regards, Janis Leja, General manager of Servier Latvia

Best Tour Guide Ever! - Our experience with Panorama Tours was amazing. Yousaf was the best tour guide we ever came across (and we have visited many countries). He was honest, polite, kind and very knowledgeable. We felt fully at ease during our 8-day trip. Though, we had young kids, Yousaf was always there to help us out and the entire family felt very comfortable with him being around. We will always choose Panorama Tours whenever we return to Azerbaijan. We are really thankful to them for taking the stress out of the entire trip and making it a wonderful and memorable tour. I always recommend Panorama Tours to anyone and everyone without any hesitation.

BEST TRAVEL GUIDE IN BAKU - You need a tour guide in Baku? Yusif has to be your go to. Unlike others, he makes sure have seen the best of Baku. Many of the guides out there want to earn few extra bucks out of you. I was there with a few friends and we had a pretty bad first day getting scammed by everyone we met. And met Yusif on the second day and he truly explained everything inside out to us. A true gem of a guy! He also has a very neat and comfortable ride to go around in and will share his WiFi on request 😂😏 Yusif if you’re reading this, you saved us a lot of trouble. 😂 Would highly recommend him if you want a carefree trip in and around Baku. Big ups to you Yusif! 🙌🏻
