1.00Beware of booking same day. Though it shows available they still may cancel on you... Not sure why they just don't update their time in advance needed for booking, that would solve this issue
Fantastic Guide for a Baku Tour

5.00We did the walking tour and the half day trip to the mud volcanoes with Gani and Eldar. We thoroughly enjoyed both and would highly recommend. We enjoyed the sites but also the discussion with Gani and Eldar about geo politics. They are both very well informed and happy to talk about local politics.
Excellent Baku walking tour; Gani was first-class guide

5.00We recently enjoyed a wonderful walking tour of Baku old city. Our guide, Gani, really brought the tour to life with his fantastic historical perspective and deep knowledge of Baku and Azerbaijan. This tour is a superb introduction to Baku and every visitor should aim to do this tour first thing when they arrive in the city - it provides an excellent overview of the key sights to visit and provides immediate orientation around the maze of streets and alleyways in the old city.
Great experience

5.00Fantastic tour, highly recommended. We had Gani as our tour guide, he was very knowledgeable and conducted the tour at a perfect pace. Even though we thought we had seen most of this area of Baku we found a few hidden gems and it was really interesting to hear the history of this part of Baku. I really enjoyed seeing some old photos of the city to see how it had developed so quickly at certain points in history. If you're visiting I would definitely say this is a very worthwhile tour.
INFORMATIVE

5.00Gani was brilliant, funny, and has perfected his tour of Old Baku. I was hoping to get an excellent introduction to Icherisheher. We got that plus fun history lessons, architectural expertise, personal stories, and cultural / political insights that make a traveler’s experience in Azerbaijan unforgettable.
