Unforgettable experience - Candy Mountains, Guna and Khinalig Village are well worth a visit. The guide, Leyla, explained all the details, keeping the group united and interested. Very good. The impeccable driver.

Heavy Snow, Great Tour - Leyla Made It Easy - We did the Guba & Khinalig & Candy Mountains Group Tour yesterday, and it was snowing so hard that for a moment we honestly thought we'd accidentally booked an "Arctic expedition" instead. Massive credit to our guide Leyla - she was brilliant. Even with the weather making everything more challenging, she kept the group together, calm, and (most importantly) safe, without letting the day turn stressful or dull. That's not an easy thing to do. If you're thinking about doing this tour, go for it - and if you get Leyla, you're in really good hands. Highly recommended!

Bringing international strangers together - Great stops. The village dinner genius. Leyla is fantastic ambassador to bring international group of potentially uncomfortable strangers together and being more friendly after meal. Leyla is great ( and driver damn good too).

Nice views and tour but terrible experience - The tour is very interesting but unfortunately the weather wasn't good, a heavy snow started when we got Khinalug, the way to go up was completely white but with care the cars got the village, but it was very difficult on the way back, both cars had serious problems to driving through the snowed road and they both slippered on the road, one of them had no chains and the other one even with chains was difficult to manage. The drivers asked to walked down so many meters, about 20 or 30minuts trought the snow, we were really afraid as was getting dark and the way down were 2h driving on that terrible road. The forecast was that snow was coming theses days, it was not unexpected, no plan b at all to get down, the tour should be cancel on these conditions. Leyla, our guide was very kind, helpful and very professional all the time. Thanks Leyla! she explained all history and details.
