We are The Wind Walkers — a local walking tour team inspired by the soul of Baku: where the wind never rests, and every stone has a story. Led by passionate locals, we offer immersive city walks that connect you with the architecture, legends, and lived energy of Azerbaijan’s capital. From hidden corners of the Old City to breathtaking views from Highland Park, our tours are more than sightseeing — they’re storytelling on foot. We walk with you like friends, not only as guides. We believe the best way to discover Baku is slowly, with fresh air in your lungs, history under your feet, and the skyline always shifting above you. Whether it’s your first visit or your fifth, we invite you to explore Baku with us — at the pace of the wind.

Tour description

Baku is a city of contrasts: where ancient stone walls meet modern glass towers, where the wind whispers through the gardens, and where every corner hides a story.

In this free tour, we will not only visit places but also experience moments:
✨ Starting in the calm of the Molokan Garden under the whispering trees
✨ Strolling through the elegant bustle of Nizami Street
✨ Feeling the Caspian breeze as we walk along Rasulzadeh Street
✨ Walking along Baku Boulevard by the sea
✨ Stopping at extravagant places like Mini Venice and the Carpet Museum
✨ Climbing to Highland Park for the best panoramic view of the city
✨ Honoring the silence at the Martyrs' Lane and Mosque
✨ Contemplating the burning skyline from the Flame Towers viewpoint
✨ Passing through the Old City Gate into a centuries-old stone labyrinth.
✨ Discovering gems like the Miniature Book Museum, Shirvanshah's Palace, Maiden Tower, and Juma Mosque

It is a journey through gardens, boulevards, viewpoints, and the Old City, blending history, legends, and the little surprises that make Baku an unforgettable place.

This is the perfect tour if you want to see the city in one walk, understand its soul, and feel its winds.
