Private family tour to Gabala - I had a private tour with my family to the lush green mountains of Gabala. The place is worth visiting with beautiful scenery an heat escape weather. The main highlight was the cable car of the resort. Our guide Mr. Lehsan was very accommodating and caring. I recommend this company for the tours.
