Best views in Azerbaijan up the mountains
Best views you will get anywhere in Azerbaijan. The drive up to Xinaliq was the highlight of our trip. We travelled with out 3 months old infant and 3 years old son. Everything was smooth. Guide Farhad took us for this trip and he was excellent, very patient and accommodated all our needs. We had amazing Shah Pilaf at the restaurant Qecrecsh forest. We would come back to Azerbaijan again to do this trip, book without any doubt, you won't regret it.

Excellent Experience
When I searched the options available for touring Azerbaijan on the internet I came across the website of ‘azerbaijanguide.AZ’. Having made initial contact through the website I received an immediate response and had a brief chat with Artunj, the tour manager (whom I continued to communicate with through Whatsapp until the end of the tours I selected). As me and my family did not had a lot of time to spend in AZERBAIJAN I requested Artunj to make itineraries (tailored by me) and priced on a private tour basis for a family of 3 persons. Artunj was very patient, helpful and offered good clear guidance to me with each of our requested tours and we ended up booking 3 tours with ‘Azerbaijan guide’. The tour of Quba and Khinaluq was guided by Ferhad. A very nice gentleman and showed a keen knowledge of all the places we had chosen to see. He arrived on time at the hotel, went through the exact places and at the specified times stated on our chosen itinerary. We were so pleased with the service given by the ‘Azerbaijan guide’. With such a comfortable car and a smooth journey throughout, I would recommend everyone to use this company to visit Quba and Khinaluq.

Not what you read...
The tour guide did took us to only Quba town, Mastergah Waterfall, lunch in a local restaurant (not in forest or mountain) and a small river boat which he had no clue about because this was offered to us as a replacement because tour company told us Shahdag resort is closed till December and they cannot take us there...but the funny part is that their driver told us pay extra and I will take you there now.The tour guide has nothing to say or describe about Quba and he was quite during full tour just sitting next to the driver who himself asked about directions from 10 people on the way because he was not sure where he was going and at times we felt little unsafe because we had kids.After reaching the first place for river boat ride, we told the guide we don't want it (because it did'nt look safe) so he said where do you want to go then? I told him you should know.The only positive thing was Mastergah waterfall and the food in the restaurant (where no one speak English).This tour could be worth more if done with some more professional company. But Quba is a nice place to visit.

Review
I was lucky to take the tour with Artunj, gentle man, generous, very helpful, patient, and he knows actually where to go and what must be seen. Quba is very beautiful place, calm and the most noticable thing is that it is very very clean more than you think. I would love to go again with the same person.

Tour to the North part of Azerbaijan Forests and Mountatin Quba: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Baku.
How much does Tour to the North part of Azerbaijan Forests and Mountatin Quba cost?
+
Prices start at $75 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Baku usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Tour to the North part of Azerbaijan Forests and Mountatin Quba take?
+
Plan for about 12 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Baku is not rushed.
Is Tour to the North part of Azerbaijan Forests and Mountatin Quba worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Baku, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Tour to the North part of Azerbaijan Forests and Mountatin Quba?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Tour to the North part of Azerbaijan Forests and Mountatin Quba suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 12-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Tour to the North part of Azerbaijan Forests and Mountatin Quba?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Baku can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Baku and add a light layer if any part of the 12-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Tour to the North part of Azerbaijan Forests and Mountatin Quba start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Baku within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Baku?
+
On Outty we rank every Baku experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Gobustan and Absheron tour, BEST Gobustan, Volcanoes & Absheron Fire Tour (Group or Private), Shahdag, Quba, Candy Cane - Azerbaijan's Alpine Odyssey Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Baku?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Baku?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
