Experience Baku at its most magical — after sunset.
This tip-based walking tour is designed to help you feel the city's atmosphere rather than simply learn its history. As evening falls, discover Baku's illuminated landmarks, waterfront promenades, and centuries-old streets while enjoying some of the city's most spectacular night views.
Starting at Icherisheher Metro Station, we'll stroll through the elegant Philharmonic Garden before heading to Baku Boulevard. Along the way, you'll see Little Venice, the iconic Carpet Museum, and enjoy exterior views of Deniz Mall. We then ride the Funicular to Highland Park, where you'll discover the Flame Towers, the Martyrs' Memorial, the Shehidlar Mosque, and one of the finest panoramic viewpoints in the city.
After taking in the skyline, we'll return to the city center and continue through the historic heart of Baku. Explore the UNESCO-listed Old City, passing the Maiden Tower, ancient caravanserais, traditional hammams, and the famous Double Gates before finishing on lively Nizami Street.
The tour covers approximately 5 km and includes a Funicular ride. Comfortable walking shoes and a camera are highly recommended.
