Sheki: Azerbaijan's 4 Regions - Full-Day Epic Journey

Tour Guide and driver: The tour guide Saeed was amazing. He knew everything and handled the two different language groups properly. He was excellent. The driver was good too. Tour company: My feedback for the company is to respect the pick up time you confirmed since this tour starts very early in the morning. I double confirmed twice the night before and they confirmed the time. On the day at the pick up time they delayed it by 40 mins. We woke up early and got ready just to be delayed by 40 minutes. The car must be more comfortable. We got a car which could only sit 4 guests comfortably. But we were 5. I was in the middle seat for almost 8 hours of the car drive which was not comfortable at all.

I have been travelling to Sheki with a very small group and our guide Ahmed who was very knowledgeable, calm and patient with us. We visited Shamaxi and its mosque and continued to the hanging bridge. The landscape in the mountain was beautiful. We went to a bucolic place to a lake close to Qabala. Sheki is a lovely town but I regret we could not stay more time there. We should focus more on Sheki and maybe avoid previous stops. Ahmed tried to answer our wishes but he had to follow the program. We came back to Baku very late that night, Ahmed made this trip very interesting although we did not stay enough time in Sheki.

Highlight of this trip was Sheki! Beautiful scenery (mountains), The palace of Sheki Khan's, caravanserai, Sheki fortress and Albanian Church. Lots to see in one place! I also liked Juma Mosque and the hanging bridge! The lake on the way back we weren't able to see because it was already too dark and we lost some time in the morning and then we had two big breaks which I think could have been shortened or maybe it would have made more sense if we saw the lake earlier in the day. Also, at the beginning of the trip we lost almost an hour waiting for other tourists which I think isn't fair for the rest of the people. We could have seen the lake if it wasn't for them... But nonetheless, my partner and I were able to enjoy our trip and made some nice memories!:)

It was a long journey to see not so much. But the guide, Fatima, did it very well. The driver was The driver was terrible. He drove too fast and recklessly.

Great trip with guide Ahmad. He’s been looking after the group well and his knowledge about the places and good hospitality truly made a difference.

I joined the sheki tour just the night before it started. Thought this is big company with soso service but turns out its all good. Our guide Nursan is waiting at the starting point ahead, and we started early than other groups, which made our journey more comfortable. She speaks good english and knows lots of the history and knowledge, and the explanation is clear enough to understand. Our trip went well and on time, everyone is happy. I stayed behind in sheki.

This was a great way to see the countryside and visit a variety of places in Azerbaijan. Our guide was informative and able to explain the history behind each site quite well. I learned quite a bit about the country during this tour. I was pleased with all of the locations that we visited, except for the waterfall and the lake. The waterfall (which has an additional entry fee) is in a theme park and is totally artificial, and we made it to the lake (also in a theme park) after sunset, so there was very little to see. This tour could easily drop these two locations for something more significant, and be just as good.

Sayeed is a wonderful guide! His passion, enthusiasm, kindness and personal touch made our experience truly memorable!

The trip to Sheki was amazing! Our guide Sayeed was very knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole experience unforgettable. I highly recommend both the tour and Sayeed as a guide. 😊

13 hours to spend 45 mi in the UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE site!!! The guide spoke 6.5 English in a scale of 1 to 10. The lunch at the restaurant the tour company recommended was expensive, and DID NOT TAKE CREDIT CARD from Usa Banks, my friends from SPAIN use his credit card with no problem. The worse part is they blame me or the BANK, which is FALSE
