Excellent way to learn about Azerbaijan - This tour is a great way to dive into Baku's history. From many centuries ago to the soviet union, our excellent tour guide Nihad provided us with many history facts. The tour is slowly paced, allowing you to take any pictures you want and it's also a great way to spot places you want to return later and explore more. Depending on your pace, the tour can last around 3.5 hours, which is a great walking workout!

The perfect start to your holiday in Baku - This was a fantastic tour with our guide, Aysu. She was knowledgeable and passionate about her town of Baku and was able to answer many questions we had about Baku past and present. Her English was wonderful and it was nice taking this tour in the evening so we could get some dinner recommendations and go relax at dinner after learning so much about this city.
