One Day Shopping tour

Shopping tour Highlights

If you find yourself in Baku and want an affordable, lively, and truly local experience, a one-day shopping tour of the city’s markets is the perfect choice. This isn’t just a regular shopping trip — it’s a cultural journey that introduces you to the lifestyle, customs, and vibrant atmosphere of Azerbaijan. During this one-day tour, you’ll visit three of the city’s most famous and colorful shopping spots: Sadarak Market, Yashil Bazar, and Sharq Bazar.

The tour begins at the massive Sadarak Market, known as the wholesale hub of Baku. Here, you’ll find everything from clothing and shoes to toys, electronics, cosmetics, textiles, bags, household goods, and even wedding dresses. At first glance, the market may look like a chaotic maze, but your guide will help you navigate, find the best deals, and teach you how to bargain like a local. It’s the perfect place for those who want to buy quality items at wholesale prices or find unique souvenirs you won’t see in tourist boutiques.

Next, in this shopping tour you’ll visit Yashil Bazar, one of Baku’s oldest and most popular food markets. This is where locals shop for fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts, spices, dried fruits, honey, tea, sweets, black caviar, and traditional Azerbaijani pastries. The market is vibrant, aromatic, and very authentic. Food lovers will especially enjoy this stop, as many sellers gladly offer samples and share stories about their products, including tips on how to use local spices or brew Azerbaijani tea properly. Here, you’ll not only shop but also experience the lively spirit of a true Eastern bazaar.

The final stop is Sharq Bazar, a smaller but cozy market specializing in traditional Azerbaijani goods. You’ll find scarves, carpets, textiles, ceramics, decorative items, and plenty of authentic souvenirs. Local artisans and sellers are happy to share the history behind their products — explaining the symbolism of carpet patterns, the techniques of hand embroidery, and how these craft traditions are passed down through generations.

Throughout the tour, you’ll travel in comfortable transport, with a guide to help you communicate, navigate, and find the best places to shop. You’ll also enjoy a light snack and have free time to explore each market at your own pace.

This shopping tour is ideal for travelers who want to see the real city life, soak up the local culture, and shop smartly. It’s especially popular among tourists from India, Pakistan, UAE, Russia, and other CIS countries, who enjoy markets, bargaining, and authentic local experiences.

If you want to spend a day shopping with both fun and purpose, book this tour and discover a different side of Baku. This is shopping you won’t forget.
