I would like to express my gratitude to the travel agency "My Tour Baku" for the gorgeous excursions and highly professional guides!
Guzel's manager spoke in detail about all the tours and excursions, answered all questions, and was constantly in touch.
The first tour included the stunning Heydar Mosque, the amazing Pink Lake and the colorful Khizi Mountains, as well as the ascent of Mount Beshbarmag. The group is small, the tour was conducted in Russian and English quite comfortably. The guides Rauf and Famil are excellent storytellers with pure Russian and deep knowledge of religion, history, and culture of Azerbaijan. The absence of unnecessary information, at the same time everything is clear and incredibly interesting. The tour was quite comfortable, no one hurried anyone, did not wait, did not catch up…
The second excursion to Sheki, despite its duration from 08:00 to 22:30 hours, was held in one breath. The group gathered Russian-Turkish, and that was the beauty of it – the mixing of cultures, mutual interest, etc. The guide Rauf, who conducted the tour, exceeded all expectations and revealed himself as an extraordinarily talented person – he performed songs in Azerbaijani, Turkish and Russian, danced excellently, showed acting skills and amused the group on the long way there and back. The program is rich, but not tedious. On the way, we stopped for lunch in a very picturesque place with a national flavor. In Sheki, in addition to the main program, Rauf showed the group a store with the tastiest Baku sweets and prices lower than in Baku.
In addition, when buying two excursions, the third one in the evening Baku lasting two hours was a gift, which is very pleasant.
If you travel around Azerbaijan, then only with the company "My Tour Baku" and, in particular, with the unsurpassed guide Rauf!!!

Thank you very much! At first, we were skeptical about the tour operator, but when everything passed, I can safely recommend it!!!
1. Thanks to the promoter Kamala - super price with a big discount, full support from and to the trip!
2. Thanks to the guide Rauf - initially one item from the program with geysers had to be canceled due to the weather, it was the last the moment was able to come to an agreement and everything was successful, the whole program was watched.
I highly recommend tours, because you will not be able to visit so many places on your own for such money and for such a time (1 day)

I took an individual guided tour of the old town with Ophelia. A very interesting leisurely walk with stops and photos in interesting places of the old town, accompanied by an interesting relaxed story from the guide. Thank you very much to Ophelia for the excellent attitude, understanding, care, excellent photos and an interesting story about the most intimate places of the old city.

We were in Baku for a week and visited 7 excursions, 6 of which were with this travel agency. The guys are professionals in their field. We discussed and booked everything in Russia. Guzel helped us. A very friendly and well-mannered manager. Clever girl. We took a lot of excursions, but we didn't know that they would make a discount for it, and such that almost one turned out to be free, and they gave us a night Baku!!!
All the cafes where we were fed were very respectable and beautiful. We expected that if everything is included, then they save on quality, but we were pleasantly surprised. Buses, drivers, guides are simply above all praise. 29.08 it was "night Baku", the tour was led by Abdula, a young man who took care of all the people he wanted, helped them, answered questions, took photos, the first impression was very good. The city is beautiful. The views are magnificent!
30.08.24 we went to Gobustan/Absheron. Led the tour by Rza. He talked very interestingly, respected everyone, helped, kept time, got a lot of positive emotions!
On 31.08 and 02.09, they visited Sheki and Gabala/Shamakhi. Richard conducted both tours for us. A very educated, well-mannered, positive young man. Of course, the road is still under construction and was not easy. And we made a little mistake with the choice. Excursions on half of the route to some places, but we had such positive fellow travelers, great weather, a wonderful guide, a great lunch on the lake - such an atmospheric place!!!
01.09 we visited the Combo tour, we were glad to meet Ablul again, he is a guide from God. He bought us a watermelon that we ate on the shore of the Caspian Sea!!!I gave tea on Mount Bishbarmak, took you to the salty pink lake, the agate mountains!
04.09 we finished our excursions with Emil around the "Old Town". And again, a great guide! I've told you so much, explained, and shown you! I know how this travel agency selects its employees, but the fact that they know how to do it is unequivocal! If you choose a travel agency, I definitely recommend this one!!! Thank you for the excellent work, professional approach and positive emotions!

Excursions to Gabala and Shamakhi were booked in advance. The vouchers were sent to WhatsApp. We paid on the spot. The tour was wonderful. Our guide Sabina is a friendly and very positive girl! Despite the fact that the time tour is very long, time flew by unnoticed. We saw all the beautiful natural sights, had a delicious lunch overlooking the lake. People rode catamarans on the lake, even managed to do it, they saw the golden autumn in the mountains on the cable car.
Special thanks to Sabine for the organization and hospitality! She's doing great! She told me a lot about the traditions of her people. The tour was informative. She answered all our hundreds of questions!
I recommend My Tour. And I would also like to mention the location of the travel agency itself. Right next to the famous green door from the movie "The Diamond Hand" and the studio of the artist Ali Shamsi.

Many thanks to Roman for the individual tour of the Old Town. The walk turned out to be very intense, informative and emotional. The Novel's story about Azerbaijan and Baku was accompanied by historical facts, legends and interesting comments. We were pleasantly surprised to visit the workshop of the artist Ali Shamsi, the museum of miniature books by Zarifa Salakhova and places of worship of the Soviet era. On Roman's advice, we bought the most delicious and inexpensive sweets and tea at the Balli Boutique store. The tour time flew by unnoticed, but we felt the atmosphere and soul of the Old City. We highly recommend Roman!

Hello! I would like to leave a review about the tour of the old town from My Tour. The program was perfectly balanced. On the one hand, there is a lot of interesting information, on the other, a convenient and original route through various corners of the Old City, including narrow streets with old balconies and cozy courtyards. This allowed us to feel the whole atmosphere of the city, its unique history and spirit. The main merit, of course, belongs to our guide - the beautiful Ophelia with her intelligent and easy manner of presenting information. We came as a big family, and everyone was very satisfied, including the little children! Thank you so much for a great time!

Our trip was on June 12, 2024 in a small group with a different speaking guide from Rza-handsome, polite, literate, correct, patient, well-spoken in English and Russian.
The tour is unique, many unusual places were shown-Lake Masazyr-it was actually pink!👍
The mountains of Khizi were caramel, and it was breathtaking from the magnificent nature!👍
Relict cool forest , lunch in a gazebo closed from the wind-everything was hot, delicious👍
Then, due to weather conditions, the trip to the high-altitude village of Khinalyk almost failed (I found a fog), but they decided to climb up the serpentine, and there ...
My God! The miracle of Azerbaijan!
There was also the so-called Eagle Peak and a live eagle soared👍
Well, Khinalyk-there is a mosque and a private museum (were closed)😭
A full-day trip with a lot of impressions, there was travel and travel information from the guide, there was Mount Beshbarmak 👍
But special thanks and health wishes to the driver Halit (I may be mistaken in the name sorry)
The return trip seemed fleeting, everyone was asleep except the driver😁
We made an advance payment in a clean, cozy, positive office, received a voucher, the day before the manager of the company sent an SMS-where to meet, at what time.
There was a minibus, but there was nowhere to put backpacks-no shelves, no trunk.
In general, it's a pity that we didn't meet with the Mytour travel agency a little earlier, I recommend it to everyone, everything is transparent, not cheating!
There are many Russians in Azerbaijan, we are loved there and the youth are respectful and positive
Thank the hospitable Azerbaijan, I am delighted!
I am an active pensioner from the Moscow region, I have long wanted to get to know this country and it opened up to me like an amazing diamond, with all its facets.
Baku is a real capital, clean, green, neat, comfortable, cozy in the Ibis hotel, high-class cooking and service👏👏👏👏👏

We had a vacation with a friend in Baku in October 2024. The weather was great, we even managed to swim in the sea. The hospitality of this region defies description. But the meeting with the staff of the myTOUR travel agency was especially pleasant. On October 6, we took tours in Cheeks, and a free night walk around the city became a bonus. The guides of this company opened up to us the magnificent world of Azerbaijan. The Riad guide impressed us with his excellent knowledge of Azerbaijani and Russian culture, and thanks to his kindness, humor and cordiality, our entire small team felt like a friendly family. Separately, I would like to mention Guzel's employee, who will be able to choose the tour of his dreams for each guest!!! After this trip, we took two more tours, we enjoyed discovering Azerbaijan with the my TOUR travel agency so much.

We were vacationing with a friend in Baku, we decided to use the services of the My Tour company. We took 2 excursions, individual and group. We had a guide, Rauf, who was very polite and told us everything in an interesting way. The trips turned out to be very emotional and atmospheric. We visited fabulous places: Beshbarmag Mountain, Agate (caramel mountains), Lagich village, walked along a suspension bridge over a bubbling mountain river (very exciting). As a result, we were very satisfied. I recommend My tour company and Rauf's guide!!!

Review – about a guided tour of the Old Town with Ophelia, who talked about the beautiful views and museum artifacts in a surprisingly interesting, lively, confidential way – pure delight! At the company, whose office is located in the Oldest City, we, a large family with young children, were greeted with extraordinary kindness. I highly recommend all tourists to Baku and the company, and especially Ophelia as a guide. We are very grateful.

I was on a short trip to Azerbaijan with my wife, I was asked to take a tour of the Old City of Baku, Roman led the guide. I really liked both the tour and the guide. Roman is a very interesting storyteller, knows much more than an ordinary guide, deep knowledge of history, memorable places, good shops and small restaurants in places where you will not go and will not find immediately. I recommend it!

In May 2024, we visited Lankaran and Sheki with this company, and also went on an evening tour of Baku.
Organizational issues – for 5.
Charismatic, friendly, attentive guides with a great sense of humor. And how they sing!
Going to Lankaran and Sheki is not close. Guides, despite all the difficulties, are able to create a positive atmosphere. We all communicated with each other, we were a united team. And we can't forget how we were fed. Everything was sincere, beautiful and delicious.
I also want to thank the drivers for comfortable driving on difficult mountain roads.
Azerbaijan has made a huge impression on us with its hospitality, people, nature, architecture, cuisine.
I wish the company prosperity and more grateful tourists.

Many thanks to Kemal, an employee of the travel agency "My Tour" in Baku. We met him on the street of the Old Town at Two Gates. Kemal is a very active, but not intrusive, correct and attentive sales manager. Thanks to his story about the excursions provided by My Tour, we bought two and received the third as a gift. The level of service and professionalism of the guides is at a high level. The tour of the Old City with the intellectual guide Roman will be remembered forever, the sightseeing tour of Baku with the Riad, who speaks Russian, Turkish, Arabic and Azerbaijani, was a successful completion of our trip. We wish Kemal as many clients as possible, good luck and well-being to his whole family!

We would like to thank My Tour company for giving us the opportunity to see the beauty of the nature of Azerbaijan. We visited 2 excursions - around the Old City and a Sightseeing Tour of the surroundings of Baku (Gobustan, mud volcanoes, burning mountain, etc.). Let's start with the fact that we want to thank sales manager Rashid, he selected excursions for us according to our taste.
On our first tour of the Old Town, we were charmed by the guide Ophelia. Thank you so much for the unforgettable tour, for all the information, historical facts, and stories about the modern life of the people that she told us about.
On the second tour, we were accompanied by the guide Rauf. We were very pleased with his ability to present historical facts competently. A very cheerful and positive guide who graced our trip. And the locations themselves amazed us as much as possible. Azerbaijan is unforgettable and we will definitely come back here! Once again, we thank My Tour company for the organization, high quality, and responsiveness of all employees.

A well-organized tour. The bus is old, but in general everything is well organized. The food was delicious. Except for one thing. The guide Emil told very little, and periodically carried such a "blizzard" that his ears drooped. For example, he did not say that the Bibi-Eibat mosque was destroyed during the Soviet era, or, for example, mentioned the Azerbaijani-Iranian War of 1883. In Gobustan, he did not lead us to the most famous petroglyphs. Well, in general, he told me very little. We did not specifically take a car with a driver, but an excursion, because we wanted to learn more, but it did not work out. So we recommend choosing numerous competitors, although perhaps this company also has good guides.

Great tour! Ophelia is not only beautiful, but also tells a very good story about old Baku. 3 hours flew by unnoticed. We learned a lot of interesting things. I think that such guides are worth their weight in gold! I will advise all friends to contact this company.

A very cool agency! We took two excursions: Gobustan and the temple of fire, and the Marble Mountains + Khinalyg. Everything is worth the money spent, the food was delicious, the stories were interesting. The buses are comfortable, the groups are small, very cozy and atmospheric. The guides speak excellent Russian and English, special thanks and greetings to the Riad (a great playlist and funny jokes).

Yesterday we went on a guided tour of the Old Town with Ophelia from My Tour company. 2 hours flew by in one breath. It was very interesting, it was our first time in Azerbaijan, we did not expect to see so many magnificent places and unusual architecture. Ophelia had a very exciting tour, answered all our questions in detail, and told us about the customs of the people. She even interested our daughter. Not everyone succeeds)) Thanks to Ophelia and My Tour company for the tour.

We took 3 excursions from this operator. I decided to write a review because I was delighted with Roman's guide, who conducted a tour of the Old Town. It is clear that Roman loves his city, his country, his guests and his job. He presents the history of the Azerbaijani people in a very interesting way, it is clear that a lot of material has been collected and studied, which he generously shares with us. They did not notice how 3 hours of the tour passed, instead of the regulated 2 hours. It is very important and pleasant when such enthusiastic people work as a guide. I will definitely and gladly recommend Roman to my friends. Once again, thank you very much!

In general, I want to say that I liked everything, next time I will come to Baku, I will turn to you guys, and I will advise my friends)

Thanks to My tours Baku for a great tour of Beshbarmag-Agate Mountains. I really wanted to see these places, but because the group did not get enough, I was offered an individual tour with a discount. I am very glad that I went: the most beautiful natural locations, and everywhere there was enough time to enjoy this beauty. I was accompanied by a very intelligent and pleasant Tour guide, he was both a driver and a guide, told me a lot of interesting things about the country. In general, everything went wonderfully, probably the brightest day of vacation in terms of impressions and emotions. Thanks!

A very good travel agency. And all thanks to an excellent team of young and looking professionals! But if you are waiting for "champagne and coffee in bed" from the tour, you are not here. This is a place for people who want to know the history of Azerbaijan, ancient architecture, monuments of ancient culture, and the amazing beauty of nature. And the main thing is to feel the sincere local hospitality, responsiveness and understanding of people!
Many thanks to Guzel's manager, who warmly welcomed us, and to the guides Rze and Family, who accompanied us on tours of Gobustan, Shamakhi, Gabala, Sheki. Thanks also to the drivers of comfortable and cozy minibuses!

This is the first time in Baku, and we chose my tour Baky based on reviews. On 07/16/2024, they poisoned themselves on a Combo tour with Daniel. We visited Beshbarmag Mountain, pink agate mountains, pink lake, and saw the new Heydar Aliyev mosque. Daniel talked about all the places in a very interesting and informative way. He revealed each place with an interesting story, and answered all additional questions with pleasure. I really enjoyed the day spent with such a guide. We wish you good roads and curious tourists. And we wish your travel agency prosperity and gratitude for the good guides

Yesterday we went on an excursion to Sheki.We were picked up from the hotel around 8 a.m., a comfortable Mercedes sprinter arrived, the guide turned out to be very friendly and cheerful.It was a long road, but we weren't really tired.First we went to the supermarket where we bought water, a small snack, then an hour later we stopped at the Juma mosque.We went inside and took a picture.Then we boarded the bus again and an hour later we were at Lake Nukha.We had lunch on the shore of this lake.The view is amazing, the lunch is delicious and satisfying.We were not very lucky with the weather, it was raining.Then we went to see the palace of the khans, they did not allow us to take pictures inside, it was forbidden.They expected more from him, but they liked him anyway.In the end, the guide took us to buy praise and sweets (who wanted), the owner of the shop gave everyone hot tea.It took us 3.5 hours to get back.
We did not stop at the waterfall, as promised, so the rating is 4. Thanks to my tour company, tonight we are going on a free tour of Baku at Night.We recommend the company, thanks again.

I really liked the trip to Gobustan and other attractions. The petroglyphs are magnificent. The Zoroastrian temple was also impressive. There were 4 Russian speakers and 5 Pakistanis. The Rza guide is a pleasant man who speaks two languages. While he was explaining to us, the Pakistanis looked at everything, then we changed. At my request, we even visited the interactive museum in Gobustan.
I recommend it!

Good afternoon! I was on a tour of the old town on 09/28/24 with the guide Ophelia. I was looking for a day-to-day tour, other agencies refused, and this was organized in 30 minutes, and us (tourists)There were only two of them. The cost is lower than in other agencies, the office is close to the double gates, it was convenient for me. Ophelia is a very pleasant, educated girl. The tour turned out to be interesting and relaxed, I offered to take a photo)) I will travel with them and recommend it to you!!!

I went on a guided tour with Rizvan along the route: Pink Lake, Agate Mountains ("lollipops"), Gechresh forest, Kudialchai Canyon, Khynalyg village. Toyota minivan transport, the driver is an ace in his field, as the mountain serpentine is also an exciting adventure. The company of 11 people was international, so the tour was conducted in 2 languages: Russian and English. At first I thought it would be uncomfortable because of this, but in fact it didn't bother, there was an opportunity to practice English. It was nice to hear the competent and understandable speech of the guide, who loves the history of his region and knows a lot and is guided in various issues. A German from our company called the guide "Harizvan", a derivative of charisma, which is exactly what it is. It is very pleasant to communicate with Rizvan on any topic, he is a very open, friendly and cheerful person. The beauty of nature is extraordinary along the entire route, I advise everyone.

Wonderful guys work here. The excursions are very interesting! I took two - to Sheki and a sightseeing tour of Baku. I would like to note that the groups are small and international! Probably you rarely get to communicate with tourists from Bangladesh, France, Kuwait, England, Turkey, Australia, Belarus, Kazakhstan in 2 days at once. An amazing experience is provided by this travel agency. I also remember the guides Famil and Samir. Famil is a young, ambitious enthusiast, always ready to help, Samir is more experienced, led the tour in 4 languages! At the same time, he did not leave anyone without attention, answered all questions, had an individual approach to everyone. Thanks a lot to the guide and the travel agency My tur

Good afternoon! We were on the tour a long time ago, on March 26, but perhaps someone will find the review useful.
We went to Sheki for the whole day. On the way: meeting at 8.30 am at the agency, stopped at the supermarket to buy something for the road, stopped at the Juma Mosque, then had lunch at Lake Nohur. After that, we were on the road to Sheki again without stopping. We looked at the palace, walked around the city, went to the gallery of local pottery masters, stopped at the Sheki sweets store and went back to Baku, but by a different road.
According to my impressions: we had an appointment at 8.00, but Mikrik drove up to 8.25-8.30. Just keep in mind that it is possible that someone will be picked up from the hotel, and you will have to wait a little. The Juma mosque is beautiful, the food at the restaurant by Lake Nohur is delicious, and in general it is very pleasant to be near the lake, in good weather you want to come there on your own and relax there. The road itself is still quite tedious. If possible, I advise you to go for 2 days to take a quiet and pleasant walk around Sheki. Personally, I liked the palace of the Sheki khans, even though there are 4 rooms empty, without interior items.
In general, I recommend Sheki, the tour is not bad, I gave it 3 stars, because in the format that we have developed, this is still not an excursion, but an escort. The guide Rizvan is a friendly and friendly person, answered questions, but there was no story/narration. I don't think that a guide should talk all the way, but I have something to compare it with, and if I wanted to learn something instead of traveling from point to point, I wouldn't go with this guide again. And perhaps it would be better to organize a microphone for the guide and exclude a stop on the slope near the destroyed cafe – the structure itself does not inspire confidence, the slope is in the trash, there is a more organized playground nearby.
