A week in Azerbaijan gives you time to see Baku properly and travel into the country’s historic north-west without rushing every stop. This 6 nights 7 days Azerbaijan tour combines the capital with Gabala, an overnight stay in Sheki and the landscapes around Gobustan and Absheron. The itinerary moves from Baku’s medieval Old City and modern waterfront to mountain lakes, caravan routes, palaces and prehistoric rock art.
