We had Gani as a guide for tour #3 in 1.5 days and I’m so happy we booked this tour. We saw our favorite garden in all of Baku that seems hardly noted despite its proximity to the Old City and ventured outside the center of Baku to see places we wouldn’t have gone to on our own, including the bridge in the White City, for a different view of Baku. Oil is such an important element that I feel this is one of the best tours one could take to learn about the evolution of Baku.

Be very cautious of same day booking...
Beware of booking same day. Though it shows available they still may cancel on you... Not sure why they just don't update their time in advance needed for booking, that would solve this issue

Fantastic Guide for a Baku Tour
Ali provided the best tour I have ever experienced with Viator. He is extremely knowledgeable, extremely personable and the way he delivers all the information he is providing is so conversational! I saw some great sites in Baku and learned a lot. His English is also excellent and he speaks 7 other languages. Thank you for a wonderful experience!!

Just what we wanted
We did the walking tour and the half day trip to the mud volcanoes with Gani and Eldar. We thoroughly enjoyed both and would highly recommend. We enjoyed the sites but also the discussion with Gani and Eldar about geo politics. They are both very well informed and happy to talk about local politics.

Excellent Baku walking tour; Gani was first-class guide
We recently enjoyed a wonderful walking tour of Baku old city. Our guide, Gani, really brought the tour to life with his fantastic historical perspective and deep knowledge of Baku and Azerbaijan. This tour is a superb introduction to Baku and every visitor should aim to do this tour first thing when they arrive in the city - it provides an excellent overview of the key sights to visit and provides immediate orientation around the maze of streets and alleyways in the old city.

Really interesting and informative walking tour.
Fantastic tour, highly recommended.
We had Gani as our tour guide, he was very knowledgeable and conducted the tour at a perfect pace. Even though we thought we had seen most of this area of Baku we found a few hidden gems and it was really interesting to hear the history of this part of Baku.
I really enjoyed seeing some old photos of the city to see how it had developed so quickly at certain points in history.
If you're visiting I would definitely say this is a very worthwhile tour.
