  • Cable Car Ride
  • lunch
    Tasty Lunch Included

The route from Nakhchivan to Baku starts along the shore of the Caspian Sea. With modern buildings standing side by side with old stone houses, Baku draws you in both visually and culturally. From the first moments, you notice how tidy, clean, and lively the city feels.

Icheri Sheher, with its narrow stone streets and historic houses, keeps the past alive in the heart of Baku. The Shirvan Shah Palace, elegant for centuries, stands out at the center of this area. With every step, you feel the touch of history and culture and start to understand the city’s character more clearly.

Baku’s long seaside boulevard is ideal for an easy walk. From the quiet, almost dream-like corners of Little Venice to the busy shops on Nizami Street, the city shows you different sides of itself. When the evening lights come on, Fountain Square becomes a calm and pleasant stop on your route.

The Heydar Aliyev Cultural Center, with its striking design, represents modern Baku, while the Museum of Loots reflects the country’s recent history and creates a strong atmosphere. Mountain Top Park and the Flame Towers offer one of the best views in the city.

On the second day, the tour continues with more natural and cultural gems around Baku: the rock carvings of Gobustan National Park, the Mud Volcanoes, and Yanar Dağ, where the flames never seem to go out. The Fire Temples remind you why Azerbaijan is so often called the “Land of Fire.”

On the last day, you enjoy the panoramic view from Baku’s Eye and visit themed spots like the Ship Museum and the Zoo. After one last round of shopping in the bazaars, you return to the city center. The journey stays with you as a calm, culture-filled memory.
