It's the perfect place to unwind, soak in the breathtaking views, and uncover lesser-known corners of northern Azerbaijan.

📍 View Of Khinalig Village

A highlight of the day is Khinalig Village, one of the oldest and highest mountain settlements in the Caucasus. Sitting high in the mountains, this village is famous for its breathtaking views, unique culture, and traditional lifestyle. Visiting Khinalig lets you experience a different side of Azerbaijan and see one of its most iconic cultural spots.

📍 Discover local craftsmanship at Gadim Guba Carpet Factory

Before heading back to Baku, you’ll stop at the Gadim Guba Carpet Factory to see traditional carpet weaving up close. This visit gives you a real taste of local life and shows the skill Guba is known for. Watching local artisans hand-weave carpets makes your trip feel even more personal and authentic.

Good tour, amazing scenery, but long drive

Enjoyed our tour with Nurlan as our guide and Jamal as our driver. We learned a lot about the country and the area we visited. Jamal did a great job driving up to Khinalig and back. One drawback was that the back windows of the car were heavily tinted. Difficult to see the scenery without rolling down the windows which were manual and not easy to roll. In Khinalig, we climbed up to the top of the hill with the cell tower — great views, but the guide should have stayed near us as we climbed up and down since both of us are in our 70s. Enjoyed seeing the mosque and Jewish area of Guba. We elected not to go to the Genocide Memorial as it was getting late in the day. Lynne H July 4, 2023

Journey to the highest habitable place in azerbaijan

It was a wonderful place to visit and the village is the highest residential area in azerbaijan. The route to get there is just so scenic surrounded by picturesque mountains. Thanks Lamia from Guided Azerbaijan for suggesting me this place to visit and organising my trip. It was quite an interesting experience!! Roshan M August 17, 2023

Great family tour to Guba and Khinalig organised by Guided Azerbaijan!

We had a private family full day Guba and Khinalig tour organised by Guided Azerbaijan. The driver and guide arrived on time to our hotel. The minivan was nice, clean and comfortable. We saw many interesting sights such as Khinalig Village 2350m, Qacrash forest, Juma mosque, Carpet Weaving factory, Guba Memorial Complex and Red Village - Jewish Settlement. Thanks for organising this great tour! I really recommend the tour with Guided Azerbaijan! Monika72 August 26, 2023

Majestic mountains

Nice trip. Majestic landscapes of Caucasus! The Khinalig village left very dual feeling of being unique place but very neglected one... Thank you Guided Azerbaijan for patience arranging and rearranging our trip! Due to some reasons our schedule changed several times, but the guys managed to rearrange things even the very last minute. Inga B October 31, 2023

A customized tour that included Quba

We had booked a weeklong trip with Guided Azerbaijan and planned several excursions with them. We had particularly outstanding service from Lamia in planning our trip and with our driver, Tahir, who was with us the entire time. While we did not do this exact tour outlined here, we instead planned a customized half day trip to Quba and to the beautiful Candy Cane Mountains. Unfortunately, our guide became sick, but we could still go ahead with the driver, who was so helpful, and Guided Azerbaijan was very responsive and refunded the cost of the guide. We had an especially fun time visiting the carpet making center. We were shown how the carpets are made and allowed to try ourselves. We did not leave without making a purchase of a stunning silk rug that we will cherish.
