A local team, not a booking platform
We are a Baku-based tour company running private trips across Azerbaijan. Every tour is operated by our own drivers in our own vehicles. You deal with the people actually taking you, not a reseller.
Our pricing works differently from most operators. You book the vehicle, not the seat: a sedan costs the same whether one person travels or four. For couples, families and small groups that usually works out considerably cheaper than per-person tours, and it means you never share with strangers.
Our drivers speak English, Russian, Urdu, Arabic, Azerbaijani, and airport pickup and drop-off are complimentary on every package.
Why visit Azerbaijan
Land of Fire
Hillsides that have burned for centuries and a Zoroastrian temple built around a natural gas vent, the reason the country is named for fire.
UNESCO heritage
Three World Heritage sites: the walled Old City of Baku, the prehistoric rock art at Gobustan, and the Silk Road town of Sheki.
Nine climate zones
Semi-desert, Caspian coast, beech forest and alpine snow. All within a few hours' drive of the capital.
Genuinely affordable
Costs well below European city breaks, with visa-on-arrival or e-visa access for most nationalities.
Featured packages

Common questions
What is the best tour company in Baku?
Baku and Beyond runs private tours across Azerbaijan with our own drivers and vehicles, so you deal directly with the people taking you rather than an agency reselling someone else's tour. We price per vehicle rather than per person, which usually works out cheaper for couples, families and small groups.
How much does a Baku city tour cost?
We quote per trip rather than publishing a rate card, because the right figure depends on your dates, group size, vehicle class and how far you travel. Message us on WhatsApp with those details and you will get a fixed price with nothing added later.
How many days do you need in Baku and Azerbaijan?
One full day covers Baku itself. Two days lets you add either Gobustan's prehistoric rock art or the mountains at Shahdag. Five days covers the country properly, including Sheki, which is too far west for a day trip.
Do you offer private tours or group tours?
All of our packages are private. The vehicle and driver are yours alone, with no other passengers, no additional pickup points and no fixed group schedule. You can change the route during the day.
Can I rent a car with a driver in Baku?
Yes. We hire out sedans, SUVs and vans with a professional local driver by the day, anywhere in Azerbaijan. There is no deposit, no driving licence requirement and no navigation to worry about, and airport pickup is included.
What languages do your drivers speak?
Our drivers speak English, Russian, Urdu, Arabic, Azerbaijani. Tell us which you prefer when booking and we assign accordingly rather than leaving it to chance.
Are entry tickets included in your tours?
No. Entry tickets to museums, attractions and cable cars are set by government authorities and venue operators and are paid on-site. Hotels and meals are not included either. Your driver takes you to each entrance and waits.
