Itinerário
Começaremos por volta das 8 da manhã. O caminho de Baku para Guba Shahdag e de volta para Baku duração total que passamos no carro será de aproximadamente 7 horas
As Candy Cane Mountains são uma área psicodélica de rocha exposta com listras vermelhas, rosa e brancas no noroeste do Azerbaijão. O ferro no solo dá às montanhas a sua cor vermelha profunda e o xisto pulverulento constitui as partes brancas. Através de um processo geológico, eles se misturaram no subsolo, camada sobre camada, e quando expostos aos elementos, erodiram em uma visão linda e completamente bizarra.
Red Village ou “Qırmızı Qəsəbə” (Krasnaya Sloboda) é o maior assentamento judaico de montanha no Azerbaijão. É o único assentamento inteiramente judaico fora de Israel e dos Estados Unidos. Existem várias sinagogas em funcionamento aqui.
Você almoçará no restaurante.
Em seguida, você visitará Qechresh que é uma das maiores aldeias da região de Guba onde está a área coberta de floresta em todos os lados. Aqui você terá a oportunidade de visitar a Casa do Cobre.

I had a great time with the tour , appreciate the effort of the crew . I met a lovely, enthusiastic, young and vibrant guide from the tour her name is Laila . She was informative and interactive throughout the tour. I will recommend others to give a try.,,❤️❤️❤️❤️
Leyla was our tour guide for the day and she was truly amazing. I felt like I had hired a friend for the day. She was so nice and accommodating. She was professional yet personable. We really wanted to experience Shahdag and Candy Cane Mountain like a local and she gave us that experience. She took us to every shop, store and restaurant we were looking for on that part of the Candy Cane Mountain tour. She also gave us restaurant tips. Thank you so much Laila for giving us such a wonderful tour.
This day tour could have been much more enjoyable with a better guide and program. The Guide by name Fuad is just not upto the mark despite doing this job fir 12 years. He is utterly inept and does not have the slightest idea of how to interact with tourists and explain information about the stops along the tour. In fact, when we reached Shahdag in the afternoon, he simply failed to provide basic information of what to expect in the cable car lift. I was travelling with elderly parents who cannot move around easily and yet this guide insisted that old people can jump onto a moving cable car lift ! Absolute lunacy on his part. He also failed to inform us about the big crowds that were on the upper station of the cable car due to which we had to wait 2.5 hours in the queue with a snowblower blasting ice onto the tourists. This was purely cruel on the part of the Shahdag staff. We nearly froze to death up there. The guide and this tour provider should definitely modify the program and stop at Shahdag first, instead of making totally useless stops at a farmers house in the name of "organic" fruits. Along the way he showed us lousy You tube videos on his phone in an attempt to explain the culture of Azerbaijan. And then he makes stops at souvenir shops just to get his "cut" of the sales. While booking this tour, please confirm the guide, If it is Fuad, just cancel the tour or ask for another guide. I have been to several countries and several tours and I usually provide positive feedback to all guides. But this bitter experience needs to be called out so other travelers have a fair warning.
Dear Guest, Thank you for sharing your feedback. While we regret that your experience did not meet your expectations, we would like to address some inaccuracies and clarify several points regarding the tour. 1. Tour Program and Stops The tour program strictly follows the description provided at the time of booking. All stops, including the visit to the Copper House and souvenir shops, are part of the planned itinerary. If a guest prefers a customized program, we recommend booking a private tour tailored to their specific needs. Criticizing a pre-advertised program is not entirely fair. 2. Suitability for Elderly Travelers The tour is designed as an entertainment-focused experience, which includes outdoor activities. We kindly encourage guests to assess whether the tour is suitable for elderly participants or those with limited mobility before booking. It is important to ensure that the chosen itinerary aligns with personal requirements. 3. Cable Car and Shahdag Stop Our guide cannot anticipate or control crowd sizes or waiting times at Shahdag. The time allocated for this stop is a maximum of 2 hours, as clearly outlined in the program. It is unclear how the reported waiting time of 2.5 hours occurred, as this exceeds the scheduled timeframe. Additionally, Shahdag operations, staffing, and conditions are outside of our control. 4. Tour Stops Perceived as “Useless” The stops included, such as the Copper House, provide guests with opportunities to enjoy traditional experiences and complimentary tastings. Guests can also optionally purchase local products and souvenirs. These stops are part of the itinerary, which was made clear in the tour description. If these do not align with expectations, we kindly advise considering a different tour program. 5. Cultural Information Provided by the Guide The guide’s use of video clips was an attempt to share valuable insights about Azerbaijani culture. Providing multimedia resources is a modern and engaging approach to enhance understanding of the local traditions. 6. Accusations of Commissions The claim that the guide receives commissions from souvenir shop sales is entirely false and lacks evidence. Guests are never pressured to make purchases, and any shopping is entirely optional. It is also important to note that we cover the costs for complimentary tastings at the Copper House, which guests enjoy at no additional charge. 7. Guide Performance Our guide, Fuad, is an experienced professional with 12 years of dedicated service. Unjustly suggesting tour cancellations based solely on personal dissatisfaction with the guide is unreasonable and does not reflect the high standards we uphold. We take pride in offering tours that provide cultural, entertaining, and enjoyable experiences for our guests. While we appreciate constructive feedback, it is important to ensure that reviews reflect accurate and fair assessments. We hope this clarifies the concerns raised, and we thank you for understanding. Should you wish to discuss this further or explore a more suitable tour option in the future, please feel free to contact us directly. Best regards, Azerbaijan Explorer team
We went to shahdagh and guba , The views were amazing, we had a lot of fun and guide went with us her name was leyla she was very nice,and co.operative.. totally recommend
Leyla was the perfect tour guide. Very friendly and helped us take a lot of photos. Shahdag was beautiful - the mountain coaster was a lot of fun. But nothing much to see at candy cane though. Very muddy and slippery since it was raining. It was a good trip except for the van - the seats were too tight and small and not comfortable for long travel
The guide: Layla was our guide. It was easy to communicate with her. History wise there is not much to be communicated about the resort either way but the guide did cover some info about the Red Village and other kinda relevant points The vehicle: we got a mini van. I had the option to choose from two seats both of the seats were broken so just imagine 12h of the trip on broken seats The stop for the food/Restaurant: extremely overpriced. Extremely slow service. On top of that 10 percent service tax which should have been communicated to us by the guide. Also, the guide will leave you with the staff of the hotel that doesn't even understand English only to re-appear at the end just to ask if it was a "good" Experience. The food at the main shahdag resort is 10x better taste wise and cheaper. Shahdag as a destination is just 3h away the trip people take an unnecessary detour to quba to show some overpriced honey saffron shop and another restaurant which pays them commission. This part is totally unnecessary and adds nothing to the overall experience.
Dear customer, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We always aim to provide our guests with a memorable experience, and your input helps us improve. Regarding our guide, Layla is a well-regarded professional with glowing reviews from countless satisfied guests. The tour you selected was an entertainment-focused trip, not a historical excursion. Layla still managed to provide relevant information to enhance the experience, though we understand it may not have aligned with your expectations. On transport, we provided a standard 12-seat minivan suitable for group tours. The vehicle undergoes routine maintenance and met all safety and functionality standards. With two free seats available, you had the flexibility to choose a more comfortable spot if needed. Perhaps your expectations included a luxury limousine or the latest 2024 model? In that case, our private tour options might be a better fit—though they do come at a higher cost. As for the restaurant, service charges are standard practice in most modern establishments. Furthermore, claims that we earn commissions from these restaurants are unsubstantiated. Our stops are chosen based on accessibility and quality, though personal preferences may differ. Your feedback will certainly help us evaluate these choices. Regarding the honey shop, we include this stop to introduce guests to our national sweets and traditions. Guests are offered free tastings (a detail you conveniently left out). Of course, there is no obligation to purchase anything—this stop is about showcasing local culture, not sales pressure. Finally, the detour through Quba and the honey shop is part of the program clearly outlined in the itinerary before booking. If you were looking for a straight route to Shahdag, our private tours offer a more tailored experience. Naturally, such tours are priced accordingly. And while we appreciate your feedback, we must admit you’ve left quite the impression—not just with us, but with other companies as well. Several providers have reported similar complaints, which leads us to conclude that some guests are simply impossible to please. But hey, it takes all kinds of people to make the world interesting, right? Thank you once again for your comments. We wish you all the best and hope that one day you find the perfect tour that lives up to your standards. Until then, we’ll continue creating great memories for our guests who truly appreciate them. Best regards, Azerbaijan Explorer
It was an awesome me experience. Our guide Leyla (does require a special mention) was very well spoken and explained everything. We got to witness this year's first snowfall.
Abid who goes by Mr watermelon was very nice guide. Speaks English very well and showed us all the locations with atmost patience. Easy to talk to to very friendly.very knowledgeable as well. Will recommend him for any tours you might want to take in Baku. He coming back from his honeymoon just after 5 days of the trip for this tour shows his commitment.
Tour was very nice, we stopped at beautiful candy cane mountains, where our lovely guide Leyla took a lot of great pictures of us. Then we had very tasty lunch, would recommend to buy this tour with lunch included, it is traditional Azerbaijani cuisine and very tasty. After we went to Shahdag mountain resort where we took roller coaster ride, would recommend it highly, very nice experience and good also for people who are scared of hights as it is not that scary. Be aware that the trip is a long drive and you spend a lot of time in a car, but the bus is very modern and seating is comfortable. Thank you Leyla, you are amazing, you made the trip much better.
Thanks for the great review! Glad the tour left you with good memories—your feedback keeps us inspired! Best regards, Azerbaijan Explorer
