Overview
Our journey begins by exploring the atmospheric streets of the Old City, where stone buildings, traditional courtyards, mosques, caravanserais, and historic houses tell the story of Baku’s past. Along the way, we’ll visit some of the city’s most iconic landmarks, including the mysterious Maiden Tower, the magnificent Palace of the Shirvanshahs, ancient mosques, and historic caravanserais once used by merchants traveling along the Silk Road.
But this tour is not simply about monuments and dates. You’ll hear fascinating stories about medieval rulers, merchants, oil magnates, local traditions, legends, and the people who shaped Baku. I’ll also show you hidden corners and details that are easy to miss when exploring the Old City on your own.
We’ll discover how Baku developed from a medieval trading settlement into the capital of modern Azerbaijan and how different cultures and civilizations influenced the city.
Whether it’s your first day in Azerbaijan or you’ve already explored Baku, this walking tour will help you see the Old City from a different perspective!
Come with curiosity, comfortable shoes, and your questions—and let’s uncover the stories of Icherisheher together!
