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.

We went on two day trips with Rufat. One to Gobustan and Ateshgah and another to the rainbow mountains with a hike to the top of beybeyim dagi. The guide was very good at customizing both trips to our wishes and hiking level. We had a great time both days and I can highly recommend using this company for guide service both in and outside of Baku. Rufat was very friendly, fun to have around, had great language skills and knew a lot about history and nature.

I have fallen in love with Azerbaijan back in 2018 when first visited the country. As a biologist, I am interested mostly in the wildlife of deserts and semi-arid foothills (which are plentiful here) but this land is so versatile that you can cross several ecological zones in a matter of hours. Literally, you can wander in a lowland semi-desert enjoying bubbling mud volcanos and prehistorical rock-art in the morning and then go up to see alpine meadows and glaciers in the afternoon. Besides the natural wonders, Azerbaijan can surely boast with its rich history and cultural traditions. And, of course, friendly and hospitable locals are one of the biggest treasures that can be found here. So, it was a bit disconcerting when I found out that the guy with whom we arranged a trip last year fell ill and this time he will not be able to accompany me and my friend. As always, this happened just a few days before we should fly in into Baku. But we were lucky to find Amir through a website connecting travellers with local guides. There were many offers following my request but Amir's reply had driven my attention. He said that he is also crazy about deserts and will gladly drive us in his old Pajero wherever we want. "That is the guy you need" is the thought that crossed my mind and so the adventures began. I am not sure what is the maximum length of a review on the TripAdvisor and don't think it is necessary to provide the details of the trip here. Everyone can find something for himself in this amazing country. We had good eats, good talks, good laughs, great music. The overall trip was awesome. What needs to be emphasized, however, are Amir's qualities such as professionalism, friendliness, positive attitude and great knowledge of Azerbaijan's history and culture. Surely, when I will plan my next trip to the country I will contact Amir to ask about his availability.
