Why not take some time to explore Baku, the shining city on the shores of the Caspian Sea. Climb the Maiden Tower, the scene of many Azeri fairy tales and visit the National Carpet Museum, a building shaped like a rolled-up rug. Experience the delights of the local street food with a local guide to show you where all the best treats can be found and take a day trip to the archaeological site of Shamakhi and visit the small traditional village of Lahic.
