history and culture of Sheki
I recently took the Sheki tour with GuidedAzerbaijan and it was an unforgettable experience! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and made sure we saw the best of Sheki’s rich history and culture. The Sheki Khans Palace was absolutely stunning with its intricate designs and beautiful stained-glass windows. We also had the chance to shop at the Sheki bazar, where we found delicious honey and local sweets.

Fascinating air and great history
Very enjoyable and fascinating. We had a tour guide Fuad for some of it and it was interesting learning the history. He was very funny and informative. During the tours we seperated special time for specific taste of Sheki. We had Piti meal together.It was amazing and wonderful experience for us. Me and my husband loved everything with Fuad. Highly recommended! sandranaime October 6, 2018

Wonderful tour with able guides
We took a 2 day road trip to Sheki & Gabala with Fuad...he made the long journey so much fun with his knowledge and sense of humour, interspersed with personal anecdotes. Came to know so much about Azerbaijan -past & present. Sheki & the Khan palace are not to be missed if one is interested in medieval history. We would definitely recommend Guided Azerbaijan to anyone who's going to this fascinating country. najmasanai March 12, 2019

Wonderful Sheki Tour
During my visit to Azerbaijan with my friends, I decided to go to Sheki as well. Sheki is a small town and honestly not one of my favourite during my Caucasian trip. But here is the Sheki Kahn's palace was definitely weird and elegant architecture for visit if you stop in town. It is beautifully well decorated and well preserved. A tour guide was amazingly informative. He explained the everything very well and with fun. Tom.Locc November 12, 2019
