Our first day in Baku is memorable we meet Gani our tour guide whom he walk with us and share a very detailed information about the history, culture, architecture and etc. of Baku. Gani is extremely knowledgeable, patience and kind to answers all the questions. He even recommend about places to visit, restaurants to go to, food to try. He is definitely the best :) On 2nd day, by far this is the best trip as we indulge the local food in Khinalug village and we get to experience the beautiful mountains and warm weather. Kudos to Ulkar, our tour guide she is knowledgeable and lovely. We get to meet her family and spend dinner with them, even share our stories about Baku,my country Philippines and where I currently live now. Highly recommended! Definitely we will share this story to my friends and colleagues. Godbless! - Jona Chavez
