Great
Due to Formula One the roads were very busy so we started late, and unfortunately the carpet museum was closed. But our tour guide bahadur was great, respectful gentleman. We couldn't cover all the listed places But I loved the trip and enjoyed it very much. Big thanks to the operator of the tour, hope to visit Baku again

Baku City Tour
The Tour Guide was good and kind. Highly recommended him . But during my booking there were many itineraries like around 11 or 18 locations. Maybe as a freelancer he is not aware about it. Thank you

Awesome tour of Baku - with Orkhan M
We had Orkhan Mahmudlu pick us up from the Hotel and take us to the various important tourist attractions in the city. It was very professionally organized. Orkhan, with his impeccable English, took pains in going to great detail on the how and why of the places - gave us a lot of background to help us appreciate what we saw. A very professional team, Orkhan - thanks so much for being with us. You have been amazingly customer centric. Any company would pick you in a heartbeat for their sales positions. Good luck dear.

Amazing city
My family of four took this tour with Mr Samir, and we had a great time. We were able to cover all the main sites within the city and benefited from Mr Samir's vast knowledge and experiences, not only the tip sites in Baku but also the lesser known. The agency also had a separate driver for us, so we could also walk through sites such as the old city and then, be picked up without wasting any time. Finally, Mr Samir took us to an amazing restaurant with authentic food. We didn't know what to expect as vegetarians but thoroughly enjoyed the meal... as well as the entire city tour!

Full-Day Baku City Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Baku.
How much does Full-Day Baku City Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $140 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Baku usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Full-Day Baku City Tour take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Baku is not rushed.
Is Full-Day Baku City Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 26 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Baku, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Full-Day Baku City Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Full-Day Baku City Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Full-Day Baku City Tour?
+
Around 9 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Baku can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Full-Day Baku City Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Baku within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Baku?
+
On Outty we rank every Baku experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Gobustan and Absheron tour, BEST Gobustan, Volcanoes & Absheron Fire Tour (Group or Private), Shahdag, Quba, Candy Cane - Azerbaijan's Alpine Odyssey Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Baku?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Baku?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Full-Day Baku City Tour?
+
Included: Transport by air-conditioned coach or minivan depending on # of guests; Bottled water; anding and/or facility fees; Professional Local Guide; and Hotel pickup. Not included: Food and drinks. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Full-Day Baku City Tour include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 12 listed pickup locations in and around Baku. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Full-Day Baku City Tour offered in?
+
It is offered in Arabic, German, Swedish, Russian, English, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Full-Day Baku City Tour?
+

The operator notes: Wheelchair accessible; Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; and NOTE: If a traveler needs to use stroller and wheelchair during the tour, he/she has to ke.
