Meet at the airport and embark on a short but intense adventure! We’ll head to Derbent, the oldest city in Russia, exploring its ancient “magals” (streets) and ascending the famous Derbent Fortress to delve into the city’s history and enjoy panoramic views. We’ll then drive to the coast to catch a breathtaking sunset with the Lun ekranoplane, the legendary Caspian Sea terror, frozen on the shore! A stroll through the beautiful, nocturnal Derbent follows before settling into a cozy and comfortable guesthouse for the night.

After a hearty breakfast, we set off through authentic villages towards the mountains. Our first stop is the underground Seltin Waterfall, perhaps the most unusual waterfall in Dagestan. Lunch in the ancient and picturesque village of Chokh. Afterwards, we visit the oldest ghost village, Gamshutl, where you can immerse yourself in its mystical atmosphere, a place abandoned for almost 40 years. We then check into our comfortable mountain guesthouse.
