You’ll explore modern Baku on a panoramic drive and dive into its rich history with a guided walk through the UNESCO-listed Old City (Icherisheher) — all in just a few hours.

Panoramic Baku City Tour (by car)

  • The First Oil Well
    Visit the site of the world’s first industrial oil well, drilled in 1846 — predating the U.S. oil industry by over a decade.

  • Aquatic Palace
    Drive past this impressive sports complex built for the 2015 European Games, located near National Flag Square.

  • Azerbaijan Carpet Museum (exterior)
    Admire the iconic carpet-shaped museum that houses more than 14,000 cultural artifacts, especially traditional Azerbaijani carpets.

  • Seaside Boulevard (Baku Boulevard)
    One of Baku’s oldest and most beloved public spaces — stretching 25 km along the Caspian Sea. It’s the city’s heart and soul.

  • Government House
    A stunning Soviet-era architectural gem that dominates the city skyline and played a central role in shaping post-war architecture.

  • White City
    Once a gritty industrial zone, now reborn as a modern eco-district showcasing Baku’s urban transformation.

  • Heydar Aliyev Center (exterior stop)
    Marvel at Zaha Hadid’s masterpiece — a futuristic landmark of 21st-century architecture with flowing curves and no sharp angles.

  • Flame Towers
    The city’s modern symbol — three flame-shaped towers that light up the night sky with digital fire.

  • Upland Park (viewpoint stop)
    The best panoramic view of Baku awaits. From this high point, you’ll see the Caspian Sea, Flame Towers, and Old Town — all at once.

    Learn the legends behind this mysterious 12th-century tower — one of the city’s iconic landmarks.
