Ciara
Our hiking trip to Azerbaijan was wonderful! The landscapes were stunning. A big part of what made the trip special was our guide Elvin. He was knowledgeable about the area and its history, and introduced us to local families in each of the villages we stayed in. The trip was very well organised and Elvin was very adaptable! One day it rained heavily and he was able to shorten our hike so we didn’t have to be out in the bad weather for too long. Highly recommend for anyone looking to experience an adventure in Azerbaijan!
