This was the best tour I went on in Baku. The city is amazing and unique as it is, but having a local guide us around made it all the more magnificent. Our guide Azay was friendly, motivated, and professional from start to finish. He was eager to give us the best experience possible by informing us about the history of the city, and he delivered 100%.
It’s because of this experience that I will be revisiting Baku in the years to come, and hope Azay gets bigger and better opportunities as he has so much talent presenting these tours.
Thankyou Baku Tours & Thank you Azay.

Had the great luck to have a dedicated tour with Azay. Beside being extremely knowledgeable about the city and the local culture, he managed to share his perspective on a number of topics that go well beyond a generic tour. Very wise guy with a bright future in front of him. Happy I had a chance to experience the city in his company, you should not really miss spending time with him!

We did take a tour of the Old City with Vusal.
He was very interesting Guide to talk to with many personal hobbies.
Fun served with a well presented slice of history sprinkeld with the best stories from diferent Azerbaijan. This is as close as you you get to the old ghazal tradition.
What I would like to know is the name of the philosopher who said before his death the sun tuns yellow before the sunset? Told by the bronze statuę of Aliaga Vahid.
Than you Vusal.

A great way to see and understand the culture, architecture and essence of the city. Our extremely passionate and enthusiastic guide - Shahin was very knowledgable and shared with us the history , etymologies of the city . He also recommended the restaurants for lunch which was amazing. I would highly recommend this tour if you would like to embrace the local culture.

We had our tour with Hossain in Old Town. He was really informative and intelligent tour guide, for a short period we hesitated that he was historian rather tour guide, highly recommended!

It was a great event, Huseyn our guide was very friendly, well informed and spoke English well.
He had a lot of patience with his tourists taking pictures and answering their questions.
The ancient city of Baku is very beautiful and could also serve as a setting for movies like "GOT".
The guide provided us with a lot of usefull information.
100% recommendable!
