Our hotel (old Castle boutique hotel) has a partnership with this company and offer s tour for mud volcanoes and other places in Baku, we asked several times if it's all included and the answer it's always yes. And we payed in advance. But in the tour day the tour guide arrives asking for much more money to do the tour. After we told that the company tells us is all included the guide start to be really rude and even agrressive. In the end they leave us in the middle of the street and run with their car with my foot on the door steps. They really don't care about us. Worst experience with a company like that Stay away!!! They are no honest and don't deserve your money!!!

Excellent remote walking tour of the old city of Tbilisi with Bacho via internet. The technology worked well and Bacho has perfect English. Bacho is a friendly and very well informed guide. It was wonderful to get a taste of this beautiful and interesting looking city in the only way possible in current circumstances. Georgia is now very high on my list of countries to visit when circumstances allow and I will not hesitate to contact Bacho and Georgian holidays to help plan my trip. Highly recommended. Many thanks. Mike Davey England

This is a long overdue review. We went last year and Amir was very helpful. He picked us up and brought us to the hotel and gave us tips on where to go in Baku. The guide/driver he assigned to us, Vlad, was also great and knowledgeable about the places we went to. It was a long drive to Khinaliq, but in the end, it was worth it. We had lunch at one of the local's houses, very good food and authentic experience.

Save your money and either do a free walking tour or buy a guidebook at see the sights on your own. The tour operator was one of the worst I have ever dealt with and I have been traveling for over 30 years to 104 countries with countless tour companies. My complaints include not being advised that this was a walking trip (on a hot sunny August day we trekked over 7 miles in the heat). When I complained DeLuxe told me it was in the description (it wasn't) followed by Viator had recently removed it (I booked 5 months ago and they hand't) followed by telling me that the comments show a lot of walking (this isn't a part of the tour description). Second complaint was lunch which was suppose to be included. I was taken to the food court of a local mall and only after complaining was I taken to a table service restaurant. I was told the food was Azerbaijani, but the menu said it was Iranian. I asked for chicken and was given lamb. Of course that place was still inside the mall (as opposed to old town) but at least the view was nice. The biggest complaint was the tour company constantly referring to "their costs" as the reason for my problems. Their costs can't begin to equal the price of $175 a person and have zero bearing on what they advertised the tour to be. The tour I had booked the next day (which was cancelled at my request) was a four hour driving tour to a temple outside of Baku costing only $77 so I fail to see how the 5 hour walking tour was more expensive even if the entrance fees to the museums and lunch were included. One final point is that the guide was a very sweet and helpful college student who ended up getting in the middle of all this. During our lunch she was summoned to meet the tour company owner. I advised the tour owner that my complaints were not with her but with his company's representation of the tour. I only hope she kept her job. My advise, take a pass on this trip and avoid the tour company at all costs (yours and apparently theirs).
