Discover Baku: History, Culture & Sea Views on Foot (ALSO AVAILABLE IN TURKISH)
Hey! I’m Akram, a true local from Baku with a big love for languages and good conversations. I speak English, German, Turkish, Persian, and Azerbaijani — so no matter where you’re from, we’ll definitely find something to chat about! I’m not your typical tour guide with an umbrella and a loudspeaker. I’m more like a local friend who’ll show you around in a relaxed, real way. No pressure, no boring lectures — just a chill walk where you can really feel the spirit of the city. Plus, if you're into movies, TV shows, books, or watches, we can chat about those along the way too! I’m always down for a fun conversation on pretty much anything. I’m usually free in the evenings and on weekends. If you're up for a laid-back, personal tour with someone who loves this city and all things pop culture — let’s go for a walk!
Pickup
Meet me at the park in front of the Government House (84 Üzeyir Hacıbəyov, Bakı 1000). I’ll be holding a small Azerbaijan flag to make it easy for you to spot me.

🎯 Why is this tour different?
This isn’t a scripted sightseeing run. I love movies, books, watches, and great conversations — so if you're into any of that, this tour will feel more like walking with a local friend than following a guide. You’ll leave with more than just pictures; you’ll take a story with you.
