- Baku - Guests are warmly welcomed by a guide representing the tour operator Azerbaijan Travel International. They embark on a comfortable bus journey, initially touring the entire city. With 250 kilometers ahead, the trip includes several stops for excursions and lunch.
- Khirdalan - The first stop is near Khirdalan, the southeasternmost city in Europe, adjacent to Baku. Here, guests can visit a supermarket to make necessary purchases, stock up on water, or enjoy fresh traditional Azerbaijani pastries at a bakery offering a wide selection. After a brief stop, the journey continues through the Gobustan desert towards the North Caucasian ridge, reaching its Asian part.
- Juma Mosque - Shamakhi, the ancient capital of the medieval Shirvan state, is a significant center for Azerbaijani poetry and winemaking. Guests will explore the Juma Mosque, a monumental structure built with ancient earthquake-resistant techniques. As the oldest Muslim temple in the Caucasus, dating back to 743, it provides insights into the history of Islam in Azerbaijan and the mosque’s intriguing past. The journey then proceeds along the scenic Mugan Mountain Pass, a classic route of the Greater Caucasus, heading northwest to the Ismayilli region.
- Tufandağ - Gabala, the capital of the Gabala district, was once the center of the ancient kingdom of Caucasian Albania. Today, it is a popular ski resort, welcoming visitors to the renowned “Tufandag” hotel. This site features ski slopes and a cable car system, offering stunning views of the mountains and the city’s central area. The cable car ride takes you to the peak of Sleeping Beauty Mountain (Yatmysh Gezel), which stands at nearly two thousand meters above sea level, providing a breathtaking highlight of the visit.
- Seven Beauties Waterfall - Nestled in the stunning Great Caucasus Mountains and surrounded by endless forests, the “Seven Beauties” is a beautiful waterfall cascade that feels peaceful and private. This place gets its name from the seven waterfalls, each with its own height and steepness, offering breathtaking views at every turn. Located in the Vandam area near Gabala, visitors can get close to the waterfalls, feeling the gentle mist on their skin and enjoying the calm atmosphere that surrounds them. It’s a perfect spot to relax and appreciate nature’s beauty.
- Nohur Lake - Lake Nohur. A worthy end to the journey offered by the Baku-Gabala tour package is a stop on the shore of a colorful mountain lake. To characterize the acquaintance with him, one word is enough – pacification. Riding a catamaran on its mirrored surface or walking along its wooded shore will encourage any sad person to rethink existence and come to the conclusion that the world is really beautiful. Half an hour later - on the way back by semi-express with a short rest in the city of Shamakhi.
