Your flights, season and side trips decide how many nights make sense. Here’s a rough guide we often start from.

  • 2 nights: quick city taster with Old City, boulevard and one viewpoint.
  • 3 nights: classic Baku break with Old City, skyline, seaside and one half-day trip.
  • 4–5 nights: relaxed pace with a full day in the mountains or Gobustan + more café time.
