We are BaduKuba — a local city walking experience collective inspired by Baku’s ancient name, meaning “City of Winds.” Here, the wind never rests, and the city always has something to say. Led by knowledgeable local guides, we create immersive walking experiences that blend history, legends, architecture, and everyday life. From hidden corners of the Old City to breezy views from Highland Park, our tours go beyond sightseeing — they bring the city to life. We don’t guide from a distance; we walk with you. Friendly, curious, and deeply connected to Baku, we believe the best way to explore the city is slowly — with fresh air, good stories, and a skyline that’s always on the move. Whether it’s your first visit or your fifth, join us to discover BaduKuba — the City of Winds — one step, one story, and one breeze at a time

Icherisheher metro station

We meet at Molokan Garden, right by the main fountain in the center of the park. This green oasis is easy to find and is located just off Nizami Street. Landmarks to help you find us: The garden is surrounded by cafés and benches. From Nizami Street, it’s only a 2–3 minute walk. The nearest metro station is Sahil, about 7 minutes on foot. I’ll be waiting near the fountain with a big smile, ready to start our adventure together!
