Hospitality is at the heart of Azerbaijani culture, and Baku makes an easy and impressive host city. These ideas help you welcome guests in style.
Welcome with a meal
Start with plov, dolma and freshly baked qutab, and offer tea in traditional pear-shaped glasses with jam. It is a warm, authentic introduction to Azerbaijani hospitality.
See the city
Walk through Icheri Sheher, the UNESCO-listed Old City with the Maiden Tower and the Palace of the Shirvanshahs. Continue along the seaside Boulevard, visit the Heydar Aliyev Center and see the Flame Towers glow at night.
Add culture
The Azerbaijan Carpet Museum, shaped like a rolled carpet, and an evening of mugham, the country’s classical music tradition, show the country’s heritage.
Day trips that impress
Gobustan National Park and its ancient rock engravings, the Ateshgah fire temple on the Absheron Peninsula and the burning hillside of Yanar Dag are all within easy reach of the city.
We can arrange private guides, drivers and dinners, so your guests enjoy Baku while you enjoy their company.
