“Azienda onesta con tour interessanti: abbiamo svolto due diversi tour con loro, prenotati tramite Getyourguide. Il primo che prevedeva i posti vicini Baku come la moschea Bibiheybat, Gobustan, Vulcani di fango, Tempio del fuoco, Yanar Dag ed il Centro culturale Heydar Aliyev; il secondo tour portava in un giorno a Gabala. Ci siamo trovati bene ad entrambi, le guide erano gentili e parlano bene inglese. Solitamente avvisano la sera prima per confermare l'orario e il punto d'incontro. Gli orari sono stati rispettati.”

“The 7 hour promised trip took 14. The roads are awful - all under construction, no proper signs, very unsafe. The night driving coming back was frightening with many unmarked turns and holes. We hadn’t been warn. It was very exhausting and not worthy of our time not money”

“I had a great time in the trip yesterday. The mountains and the places we went to are really a wonder. Thanks to the wonderful people of Brilliant Travel - to Mr Ruslan who is very nice and helpful arranging my trip and making sure it’s memorable one. To our guide Sayeed - he is just as funny and informative and really a great person. To our driver Mr Mahmood - who has some very good skills in driving but really careful and aware of the curved roads. I also would like to add our gracious host where we were given tea and sweets in the Khinalig mountains. It’s been…”

Review of the Shamakhi and Gabala day tour from Baku, with mosque, waterfall, lake, cable car, mountain views, lunch, price, and tips.

“Recently, we visited Azerbaijan for 5 Days. We booked a Day trip with ATI Company to "Shamakhi and Gabala". We enjoyed Gabala Day Tour with Beautiful sceneries. But time given in "Tufandag Winter Summer Tourism Holiday Complex" is too short i.e. 1 hour including cable car. Ideally, we should get more time (minimum of 2 hours) This tour is a must whenever you visit Azerbaijan”
