The best tour - We, went for 4 days trip to baku, the whole time Azar was our tour guide. We went to gabala, gobustan and full baku tours with him. Azar was so energetic and full of knowledge. He was flexible with us. We had adjusted our tour plans and timings during our stay and Azar was flexible with our plans. He showed us amazing places out of our tour plan also. He used a comfortable vehical for the tour and it was ideal with our two kids. This review is not enough to thank him for the knowledge and support he gave us. Highly recommend for azerbaijan tours.
