This tour was a dream come true! From the historic sites in Baku to the stunning landscapes of Georgia, I was captivated by every moment. Sheki Khan’s Palace and the caravanserai were highlights in Azerbaijan, while the trip to Mtskheta and the ancient cave city of Vardzia in Georgia were equally incredible.

Unforgettable 11 day

This tour offered a fantastic mix of historical exploration and natural beauty. I particularly enjoyed the ancient Silk Road stops in both Azerbaijan and Georgia. The visit to Gobustan’s petroglyphs and mud volcanoes was extraordinary, and Tbilisi’s Old Town felt like a step back in time. Vardzia, a cave city in Georgia, was unlike anything I’ve ever seen. Lamia made the entire trip seamless with her insightful commentary and enthusiasm. Thanks, Lamia, for guiding us so expertly through this amazing journey.
