The tour was very well organized. Our guide, Mr Arif, was knowledgeable and explained everything well. The mud volcanoes were a unique experience and something we had not seen earlier anywhere else. We were also able to get a good understanding of the Azerbaijani culture through the guide's explanations Only disappointment was the lunch. It had extremely limited vegetarian options and the place that we stopped for lunch was also below par compared to the rest of the tripAmazing tour, guide and overall experience. Ali was always smiling and extremely knowledgeable. He treated my toddler so kindly:)
