Fun and Exciting Tout with Friendly Guide - Great tour, Emil our guide was helpful and friendly and really knowledgeable. The tour started at 6pm and covered the key spots in Old and New City, which we may have missed if we wouldn’t have booked this tour. Emil was great with taking photos too, along with tips where to click those. We will highly recommend this trip to cover key tourist spots in a short time, recommend doing the trip late so you can enjoy the illuminated Baku.

Wonderfully Rich Experience - Our guide was Nihad and he was awesome. We went to as many of the points of interest as we could in the 2-2.5 hours. But, we had many questions and being a very small group, Nihad took the time to answer them all. He obviously has a passion for history and what he does. There were tourist points to see like the maden tower, and then he took us through small streets and places I would not have found on my own. I did the day tour and if time allowed, I would have joined him on the night tour as well.

Must see. First impression of Baku - Nihad is a very professional and skilled guide. The tour gives you the most important views of the city, so you can decide where to spend the rest of your time in Baku. Nihad also waited for us, who were late... And Baku is a beautiful city, worth the visit
