7 days in Baku Itinerary

A truly contemporary city criss-crossed by history, Baku offers everything from the modern elegance of the Flame Towers to the medieval UNESCO-listed Old City at its core.

Step out of Baku with an excursion to Gobustan State Reserve in Gobustan--about 1h 05 min away. Next up on the itinerary: squeeze the most out of the city with City Tours, examine the collection at Azerbaijan National Carpet Museum, make a trip to Fountain Square, and take in panoramic vistas at Flame Towers.
