5.00Emin was a very knowledgeable tour guide. We learnt so much about the history of Azerbaijan and saw the highlights of the old town. Emin pointed out interesting details on the tour we would have missed ourselves and took some lovely photos of us. I would certainly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to learn more about Baku.
