Baku’s Perfect Blend of History and Modern Beauty – A Must-Do Tour! - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had a fantastic day and night tour of Baku with Nihad as my guide. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and shared great insights about the Old City, including the Maiden Tower and Shirvanshah’s Palace. At night, Baku’s modern skyline, especially the Flame Towers and Baku Boulevard, was absolutely stunning. Nihad also gave me great tips on how to explore the city further after the tour. Highly recommend this experience! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Baku the blend of Architecture - I am writing to share my recent experience with Baku Tours, and I must say that it was truly amazing. During my visit, I particularly enjoyed exploring the Old City, where the blend of Arab, Muslim, Russian, and Persian architecture was truly captivating. I would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation for our guide, Nihad. His knowledge about Baku's history and culture was extensive, and he did an excellent job of explaining everything to us in a clear and engaging manner. His passion for the city was evident, and it truly enhanced our overall experience. Based on my positive experience with Baku Tours, I would highly recommend their services to anyone looking to explore and learn more about Baku. The professionalism and expertise demonstrated by the team, especially our guide Nihad, were truly commendable.
