Best way to experience Baku — unforgettable tour! - I took a walking tour with Travelway Azerbaijan and it was amazing! Emin, our guide, was super professional and full of fascinating knowledge about history and architecture. The tour was engaging, fun, and left me with a deeper appreciation for the city. If you’re visiting Azerbaijan, this company is a must!

Fantastic tour of old town - Emin was a very knowledgeable tour guide. We learnt so much about the history of Azerbaijan and saw the highlights of the old town. Emin pointed out interesting details on the tour we would have missed ourselves and took some lovely photos of us. I would certainly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to learn more about Baku.

It was a nice, night walking tour just before the Fernicular stops for the evening - Nice cozy trip..as the weather was chilly and cold... Bustling with other tourists, who were equally curious like us...to see, know, understand from the guide...the history of Baku and Azerbaijan😀
