Spring (March to May)

As the snow begins to melt, the stillness of the region is replaced with the sound of rushing waterfalls and raging rivers. Enjoy a walk with a view as you explore ancient hill towns set against a dramatic backdrop of enduring snow-capped mountains. Listen out for lively birdsong and breathe in the fresh, sweet air blowing through meadows of bright wildflowers. Warm temperatures make it pleasant for exploring, but pack a light rain jacket in case of spring showers.

Summer (June to August)

Summer blossoms into a wonderland for hill walkers, nature lovers and culture vultures alike. Every shade of green rolls across lyrical landscapes. June is warm and sunny, while August sees the peak of the heat and can become humid – making it an ideal time to head to the hills. Alternatively, cling to the coastline or relax lakeside when you’re not busy exploring ancient relics and towns with market stalls bursting with fresh fruit.

Autumn (September to November)

The autumnal change throughout the Caucasus is sensational. Temperatures are warm and gentle, making it perfect for countryside hikes and long days exploring exuberant cities. Rain becomes rare and most days are filled with blue skies and sunshine. Vibrant celebrations mark the vineyard harvest from September through October, in the wine-growing regions of Armenia and Georgia.

Winter (December to February)

Glaciers crawl through the rugged Caucasus Mountains, coupled with high elevation, things tend to be cooler. Winter transforms the alpine regions into a playground for snow sports, if that’s not your thing, the cities have plenty to offer. Enjoy (or endure) a traditional scrub down in a Tbilisi bathhouse, taste Azerbaijan’s cultural concoction in Baku’s Winter Bazaar, and soak up the festive music and atmosphere in towns lit up for Christmas, in age-old ecclesiastical tradition.

Day 1.

Assemble at Changi airport for our flight to Baku, the vibrant and bustling commercial center of Azerbaijan.

Day 2.

On arrival, be greeted warmly by our local guide and drive to the Absheron Peninsula, an extension of the Caucasus distinguished for its abundant oil reserves.

Delve into the historical richness of the Baku Ateshgah, often referred to as the ‘Fire Temple of Baku’, the 17th century pilgrimage center of the Zoroastrians who were involved in trade with the Caspian area via the famous ‘Grand Trunk Road’.

Next is the awe-inspiring sight of the Burning Mountain (Yanar Dag) where a perpetual natural gas fire illuminates the hillside creating a mesmerizing and continuous blaze. The historical name of the country came from these holy centers of Baku.

Admire outstanding architecture built during the last two centuries by oil magnates. Make a photo stop at the iconic Heydar Aliyev Center noted for its flowing curves.

Dinner

Note : Azerbaijan’s tourist infrastructure is somewhat limited, particularly in terms of amenities such as rest stops between rural destinations. Many petrol stations feature only one or two restrooms, predominantly designed in an Eastern style

Day 3.

Enjoy a picturesque drive along the scenic Caspian shore to Gobustan National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its ancient petroglyphs dating back to the Neolithic era providing a vivid window into the traditions of ancient tribes, hunting scenes and cultural rituals. (Note: Route to visit the petroglyphs is not paved and involve some inclinations)

Continue to one of Gobustan’s most unique attractions, the mud volcanoes. Azerbaijan is home to nearly half of the world’s mud volcanoes and Gobustan provides an opportunity to witness these fascinating natural phenomena up close. (Note: In event of rain, we will visit Mud Volcanoes Complex instead)

Return to Baku to learn how the capital built on its heritage to become a beacon of modern architecture Explore the historic Icharishahar, a maze of narrow alleyways and winding corridors, all gracefully encircled by imposing fortress walls. At its heart lies the 15th-century Shirvanshahs’ Palace, a masterpiece of medieval architecture. From the palace grounds, the iconic Flame Towers dominate the skyline, offering a striking juxtaposition of Baku’s rich history and modern innovation.
