A wonderful escape from Baku into nature - If you want to get away from Baku for a day and spend a day in beautiful nature, I strongly recommend booking this tour with Azerbaijan travel international. You wil see breathtaking Candy cane mountains in the town Xızı, where you can walk and take some pictures and after that a short stop will be made to see Besh barmag mountain. After the next stop is red village in Quba where you see a jewish synagogue. After that the journey continues to Qechresh forest when you enjoy fresh air in the green nature and buy some local products like tee, honey, souvenirs and eat a lunch which is included in the price (typical Azerbaijani meal; soup, salad, kebab, rice, tea..). For the finish the last station of the tour is Shahdağ mountain resort, where you can watch a beautiful caucasus, beautiful nature and take a ride with a roller coaster for 25manat or take a ride with cable car on the top of the ski resort. Also other activities are available.
I am so delighted that guide on this tour was Nazir, who is fluent in english, very kind and very knowledgeable about geography and history about Azerbaijan. Even this was a my fifth visit of Azerbaijan, i got a lot of new informations about country. I am so happy that he works for this amazing company. Also I am so thankful that our driver was mr. Knyaz who transported us safely. I highly recommend to book also another tours with this amazing company to which I've been faithul since 2022 from my first visit of this beautiful country.

Tour of Quba Mountains- Bələdçi Nazir bəy - Salam, I was very pleased with the presence of Nazir in the Quba-Shaikh mountain tour. The bullshit explanation of the Bələd would make the tour even more interesting.
