Old Town - I took a private tour of the Old Town with a guided Nasser, and it was a truly memorable experience. Though I was the only one on the tour, Nasper made the trip enjoyable, full of positive energy and a feeling of comfort.
Nasr has a deep knowledge and precise details of the history and culture of the ancient city. She shared a ton of stories, intricate information, and hidden details that I couldn't find out on my own. As she wandered through ancient streets and historic landmarks, her narrative approach brought everything to life.
What I love most about it is its friendly style, kind treatment, and high professionalism. It made me feel so welcomed and the tour went to my convenience and attention without any hurry.
Thank you so much for this wonderful and special experience. I recommend that anyone visiting the city don’t miss this tour—it’s a true experience of the city.

Pleasant tour full of very interesting information - I had a fantastic experience with my "personal" guide Seyidaga. During the tour of about 3 hours he gave me tons of important and also very interesting information about the history, culture and tradition of the city and country. I really enjoyed his happy way of explaining things and the 3 hours went by too quick. Thanks a lot for making me fall in love with your country dear Seyidaga!

Wonderful tour ..... We learned SO much, but had a great time too! - The Baku Old City tour was absolutely amazing; we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Seyid is a very knowledgeable tour guide, but he is also quite skilful at balancing the intellectual side of things with keeping things light and fun. But let me underscore this point: We learned SO much and gained SO many insights during the course of this tour (which was our main objective for taking it). Thank you, Seyid!
