He told us a lot about the history of various important buildings and took us to the beautiful parks, waterfront and old city. We had a great experience of walking tour with him.

Fantastic guide and interesting sights - I had a really good time on the half-day tour. I expected to be part of a small group but ended up being the only one. Gunay was a fantastic guide. She was very prompt and professional, yet still personable and fun. She did an excellent job of explaining the different sights and was willing and able to answer any questions I asked. The pacing of the activities was also good. We saw a lot but the schedule never felt rushed. I highly recommend this tour.

Baku at a glance - We had a wonderful half-day visit (almost 7 hours!) with Gunay of Baku Explorer. She was competent, funny and bright. We visited most of the main sites in downtown Baku, including the Old Town, the Palace, the Tower, took a cable ride to the Flames and generally had a perfect day. The pace was smooth and relaxe. My wife and I highly recommend this walking tour!

Great experience with a local touch - I took this tour as a part of solo travelling through many countries and I must say, this has been one of the good ones. The tour guide (Azay) has great knowledge of the historical sites and its very helpful with other off-tour requests. Also, Azay is very proficient in English and Spanish, which makes the tour even easier to follow and not miss details, if you come from America. Great tour experience with a friendly local guide that feels like a friend.
