Baku Wonders & Gabala Alpine Mountain Escape

Fly out of Dubai into the dazzling land of fire on the shores of the Caspian Sea. Azerbaijan seamlessly blends millennia-old Silk Road caravanserais with futuristic fluid architecture designed by Zaha Hadid. This popular 4-day itinerary gives you the best of both worlds: two nights immersing yourself in the cobblestone charm of Baku's UNESCO-listed Old City and its glowing Flame Towers, followed by a scenic mountain drive into the lush Caucasian alpine valleys of Gabala. Ride the Tufandag Mountain cable car above pine forests, witness mysterious prehistoric rock art and bubbling mud volcanoes at Gobustan, and savor authentic grilled kebabs and plov in historic teahouses.
