Overview
The ideal tour around Baku begins at Fountain Square with a warm welcome and some quick local tips. We then head into İçərişəhər (Old City), exploring the Maiden Tower, Shirvanshah’s Palace, and hidden alleyways full of centuries-old stories. I don’t just give history; I share legends, anecdotes, and cultural insights that make the city come alive. We visit old caravanserais and artisan shops and chat about life in Baku, both past and present. Afterward, we stroll along Baku Boulevard, enjoy the sea breeze, take photos with the Flame Towers, and dive into the modern side of the city.
We also stop for a local snack like qutab, pakhlava, or Azerbaijani black tea, with plenty of recommendations for dining, shopping, and exploring like a local. I also offer night tours, where Baku transforms into a magical city of lights. Whether it’s the Flame Towers flickering or the quiet Old City under the moonlight, the night vibe is perfect for anyone seeking a romantic or relaxed atmosphere.
My tours are personal, story-driven, and flexible because every traveler deserves a unique experience.
