Wonderful walk on the path of history - It was a wonderful trip on foot through the walls of history. Our guide Nihad was excellent in giving us picturesque details of the history and responding to our curious questions with care. We had initially booked the tour in the morning but due to rain, the agency was kind enough to reschedule it to the evening slot. Highly appreciate their kindness and quick response. I was a 4-hour walking trip and worth every minute. Highly recommended.

Good tour if one wishes to cover both old and new city together, but it is not so much detailed as individual tours. - it was a nice tour covering most of main attractions of old and new Baku city. It would have been better if funicular ride was included in this tour. Our tour was listed as duration of 4 hours, but got done in 2.5 hrs, so there was extra time.
