Interesting Trip - Our full-day tour of the Candy Mountains and Guba with my family was an unforgettable experience, filled with incredible natural beauty and fascinating cultural discoveries. We started our adventure at the Candy Mountains, a stunning natural wonder in Azerbaijan. Known for its breathtaking multi-colored hills, the Candy Mountains lived up to their name. The layers of pink, orange, and white rock formations were unlike anything we had ever seen. The colors were especially vibrant under the sunlight, and it felt like stepping into another world. The landscape was peaceful and surreal, with wide expanses of untouched nature around us. We spent time hiking along the trails, enjoying the unique geology of the area, and taking plenty of photos to capture the beauty of the mountains. After soaking in the landscapes of the Candy Mountains, we continued our journey to Guba, a city with a rich history and a gateway to the Caucasus Mountains. Guba’s charm lies in its mix of cultural heritage and natural surroundings. We explored the Guba Genocide Memorial Complex, which was a deeply moving experience. The memorial, dedicated to the victims of the 1918 massacre, is both educational and emotional. The somber atmosphere allowed us to reflect on the history of the region and pay our respects. We also visited the Quba Carpet Weaving Factory, where we were able to see the traditional craft of carpet weaving in action. The artisans demonstrated their techniques, and we were able to admire the intricate patterns and vibrant colors in the carpets. It was fascinating to learn about the history and significance of carpet weaving in Azerbaijan’s culture. The day ended with a relaxing visit to the Quba market, where we enjoyed walking through the lively streets filled with local goods. The market was bustling with vendors selling everything from fresh produce to traditional handicrafts. We picked up a few souvenirs and tasted some of the local delights, including pomegranate juice and nuts, which are specialties of the region. Overall, the Candy Mountains and Guba tour was an amazing combination of natural beauty, cultural experiences, and historical insights. It offered us a glimpse into Azerbaijan's diverse landscapes and rich heritage. We all had a fantastic time exploring the colorful mountains, learning about the local history, and experiencing the warmth of Azerbaijani culture. It was a perfect day out for our family, and we’ll definitely cherish these memories.

Fabulous trip! - Tabriz was an excellent tour guide, impressionable young man with a passion for telling stories. He spoke Russian and English fluently and took the time to share his knowledge and Azeri history with passion and a deep love for his country. The tour is great and a wonderful way to visit sites outside of Baku.

Fantastic day out in beautiful scenery - Fantastic day out, even if it is a long day and a lot of driving. The beautiful scenery is well worth the drive. Tabriz was a fantastic guide and did such a great job giving the tour in both english and russian. Unfortunately a broken bridge meant we could not go all the way to Xinaliq but they did their best to find an alternative solution and have adivsed this at the time of booking.

Disorganized and not enjoyable trip - The only attraction of this tour was candy mountains. The lady guide was not fluent in english. There was no narration of the history related to the places , instead it was just turkish family talk with other parties in our group . Later when we googled about this guba , we could see there is lot of history related to it which was not given to us. The UNESCO site was not reachable due to some bridge problem . The guide said we can see it from another spot, which was not covered. A very disinterested guide ... maybe good in turkish language but not english. Finally we were booked for a drop off to our hotel, which the manager goofed up and then we had get down at the meeting point. Though the guide paid and got us a cab, it was another wait.

Do not recommend this tour with this company - It was a 13 hour affair. Tour was not well managed. The guide was not knowledgeable. The driver was terrible. One place was taken off and substituted with a lake which was not worth visiting.
