“Nature visit - Tour organised was good. However, a word of caution for all tourists visiting Nohur lake. The boat operator takes 20 Manat per person for 15 mins ride, which is exorbitant and is a scam. For reference, 20 mins of cable car ride costs only 19 Manat. Another scam are the hotels, which take 10 % service charge on the bill. Service charge is not charged anywhere in Baku, even in fine dine restaurants on Nizami street.” - Reviewed on 2024-05-25
