Hizı Shahdag - It is better to choose this excursion in the warmer season, not in the off-season. In November, it was cold, we were not prepared for this weather on Shahdag Mountain, there was a blizzard and the roller bonfire didn't work out, and that was our main goal. But, I thank guide Nazir for the historical background on Azerbaijan and its inhabiting peoples

Wonderful tour with an exceptional guide, Zeynab - I had the pleasure of taking this tour last week, and I couldn’t have asked for a better guide than Zeynab. She has such a warm and engaging personality, and she shared a wealth of knowledge about Azerbaijan that made the experience so much richer. Right from the start, she put us all at ease—it felt more like exploring with a friend than a guide. I have been on tours with other companies before, but I've never felt this way.
The day was perfectly paced, giving us time to truly take in each spot without feeling rushed. Candy cane was a place crossed off from the bucketlist, and we were lucky to see Shahdag beautifully covered in a blanket of fresh snow.
Zeynab, you’re exceptional at what you do—thank you for making the tour unforgettable!

Fantastic Experience with ATI in Baku! - Our experience with ATI was truly outstanding. We were recommended their tours by Riad, a member from their team whom we met by chance on Nizami Street shortly after starting our first day in Baku. Riad was incredibly kind and helpful, not only assisting us with booking our tour but also offering great advice on practical things like which SIM card to get, where to shop, and even where to find pharmacies and supermarkets. He was always available via WhatsApp and responded promptly, even at odd hours, which we really appreciated.
Our tour guide, Seyidaga, made the trip even more enjoyable. He was fun, friendly, and fantastic with our 7-year-old, keeping her entertained throughout the tour. His warm personality and knowledge of the area made the experience memorable. One moment that stood out was when we were coming down a steep slope at the Candy Cane Mountains. Seyidaga stepped up to help my daughter and sister, making sure they didn’t slip. It was such a thoughtful gesture.
We highly recommend ATI and their team for anyone visiting Baku. Thank you, Riad and Seyidaga, for making our trip so special. We hope to see you again soon!
