Discover the beauty of Azerbaijan on a 2-day tour from Baku. Visit Shamakhi, Gabala, Oghuz, and Sheki, explore ancient cities, and enjoy scenic landscapes.
Begin your journey by departing from Baku in the morning and traveling toward Shamakhi, one of the oldest cities in the Caucasus and a former capital of the Shirvanshah kingdom. Along the way, pass through mountain roads and scenic landscapes. In Shamakhi, explore the Juma Mosque, one of the earliest Islamic monuments in the region, and learn about the city’s centuries-old cultural and religious heritage.

Leave Shamakhi behind and continue toward the lush mountain districts of Gabala. Your first stop is Nohur Lake, where calm turquoise waters reflect the surrounding forests and hills. Walk along the lake, enjoy the quiet nature, and take photos of the serene landscape.

Afterward, visit the Tufandag Mountain Resort, famous for its cable cars reaching several elevations. The ride offers superb views of peaks, valleys, and evergreen forests, creating one of the most memorable experiences of the trip.

Proceed to Oghuz, known for its rich greenery, village landscapes, and fresh air. See the peaceful rural environment that characterizes northern Azerbaijan. Depending on the season and weather, the guide may also show you local waterfalls or forested picnic areas. Oghuz provides a calm contrast to the more touristic parts of the region.

Your final destination is Sheki, one of the most charming and culturally significant towns in the Caucasus. With its cobblestone streets, old crafts, and preserved architecture, Sheki offers an authentic glimpse into medieval Azerbaijani life. Visit the Sheki Khan’s Palace, a masterpiece of 18th-century architecture famous for its intricate stained-glass work (shebeke).

Explore the historical caravanserai, local sweet shops, traditional workshops, and the old town’s unique atmosphere. Throughout the tour, your guide will share insights into the region’s history, nature, crafts, and cuisine, making the experience both educational and enjoyable.
