Great private Tour to Sheki and Gabala

My sister and I booked a private tour to Sheki and Gabala with Arranged by Azerbaijan and had an excellent experience! Lamia was super easy to communicate with to arrange our trip. She accommodated our interests and requests and was very transparent in discussing logistics, itinerary, and plans. Our guide Murat Ali was also excellent. He was very knowledgeable and spoke great English. He showed us all the important and interesting sights in Sheiki and Gabala, as well as touristic spots on the way there. The Hahn’s palace in Sheki is beautiful and it is clear why it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. We particularly were impressed at how Murat Ali accommodated a last minute request of ours to add a stop at a local winery! Overall we very much enjoyed our trip and would recommend working with Arranged by Azerbaijan for any sightseeing or travel in the country.

Far but worth it

Sheki tour was fun, bear in mind its further away from Gabala about an hour so make sure to keep that in mind. But in all it was fun especially how the windows of the Sheki palace was made and built. It was fun and informative tour.

Beautiful tour

Sheki is a beautiful town in Azerbaijan and should not be missed. I loved everything about this small town and views were picturesque. Our tour guide Jamal & his driver were great and Jamal even made sure to help us with ordering the vegetarian food by translating our requirements to hotel staff and recommending few dishes. Overall Sheki tour is something every person visiting Azerbaijan for the first time should have on their itenarary.

Great 2 day cultural and nature tour in north west Azerbaijan and the mountains

We took an amazing private 2 day tour that covered sites in Shamakhi, Gabala, and Sheki. We stayed overnight in Gabala. The tour was arranged by Guided Azerbaijan and was a great mixture of nature (Gabala) and cultural sites (Shamakhi & Sheki). We had a great guide, Ulya, and driver, that took full care of us, explained very clearly the sites, and took us safely and promptly from place to place, from the pick up at the hotel until the drop off back at the hotel after the tour. They arranged the itinerary so we would use the time most efficiently, and see the sights at the right time of day where the light was the best and we were lucky to have very good weather. We asked to stop frequently to take great pictures, and enjoyed the views and discussions in the car. Also the choices for lunch during the tour were excellent. Would highly recommend this 2 day tour and both Ulya the guide and the driver !!
