All you need to know about Azerbaijan

Azerbaijan, the Land of Fire, sits where Europe meets Asia on the shore of the Caspian Sea. Baku mixes a walled old city with flame-shaped skyscrapers and a lively boulevard, while day trips lead to mud volcanoes, fire temples and Caucasus villages such as Gabala and Sheki.

It is short-haul, affordable and visa-friendly for Indians, which has made it one of the fastest-growing destinations in the region. Tell us your dates, group size and budget, and we will build the itinerary around you.
