Great Walking Tour of Baku with Nurana – May 6, 2025

My wife and I had a fantastic one-day walking tour of Baku with our guide, Nurana. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about the city. The tour was well-organized, covering both historic and modern sights, and she shared interesting stories that brought everything to life. Nurana made us feel welcome and gave the tour a personal touch. Highly recommended!
