5.00City tour with Tarlan was such a amazing experience. We were small group of 3 people plus our guide. Basic tour was enriched with related information to nationalities of tour's participants what was very nice from Tarlan. Tour was a very pleasant walk around the city, without pressure of time. I really appreciate that we wasn't pushed for shopping in downtown, we just visited one souvenir shop with products from independent artists, what in my opinion was amazing choice to take us! Tarlan is such a nice guide with big knowledge of Baku. I can surely recommend it!
Good times
