Azerbaijan · Caspian

4.9 from 227 Google reviews

Where the Caspian meets the Caucasus, and the ground burns.

A UNESCO-listed walled city under three flame-shaped towers, 40,000-year-old rock carvings and bubbling mud volcanoes an hour south, and mountain air at Gabala and Shahdag when Baku still holds the summer heat.

Why Azerbaijan

Two countries in one week

Baku is a Caspian capital of glass and stone; three hours inland is walnut groves, waterfalls and cable cars. The contrast is the trip.

E-visa in minutes

Most nationalities apply online and receive an e-visa without visiting an embassy.

Warm long after Europe cools

September and October are still comfortably warm on the Caspian, which is why the shoulder season here is genuinely worth taking.

Beyond Baku and Gabala

Nearly every Azerbaijan tour covers Baku, Gobustan and Gabala. We also go north to the Red Village at Quba and the peaks of Shahdag, and south to the tea plantations and UNESCO-listed forests of Lankaran.

Where you will actually go

Every place our Azerbaijan trips spend a night, ordered by how many itineraries use it. These are the names you will see on a day-by-day plan, so it is worth knowing which is the city, which is the mountains and which is the one night that is a home stay.
