Azerbaijan’s heritage is rich and wonderfully varied. A private tour lets you go at your own pace, with a guide who knows the stories behind the stones.

• Quba and Khinalig: orchards, a colourful old settlement and one of the highest villages in Europe
• Gabala: mountain lakes, forests and a cable car

Heritage highlights

Icheri Sheher, Gobustan’s rock art and the historic centre of Sheki are all UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and the Khinalig cultural landscape is also UNESCO-recognised.
