    +

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Baku and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    How many days do you need in Baku?

    +
