Amazing tour! Special thanks to Isa! - Smooth process of booking with Tes Tours! They have been prompt in answering our questions in Whatsapp before we booked the tour. We had a great tour with Isa who was very accommodating and who did his best to answer questions that we have about Lahij, Shamaki and Azerbaijan. We had traditional Azeri tea overlooking a nice view and Fasali bread on the way. We stopped by Diri Baba, Juma Mosque, and even crossed a Suspension Bridge. Although the ride was long, both Shamaki and Lahij was worth going to. On the way back, we stopped by for lunch at a restaurant overlooking a winery. Thanks to Isa for making the long ride fun by introducing us to Azeri music. Thank you Tes Tours! 🙂

Not all sights were included…. - Flexible guide, added an extra stop or two.
Didn’t see anything in Samakhi and didn’t visit the museum or the mosque in Lahij.
Not as advertised.
