What awaits you
Open-air museum-reserve.
Our adventure begins with a visit to a huge open-air museum, with a territory of more than one hectare. On the territory of the museum there are ancient excavations, burial mounds, ancient dwellings, portable tents made of animal skins, pottery workshops, a bakery, a real smithy, a model of an old bazaar, a yard with camels and much more. On the hands of our excursionists will be drawn wonderful drawings-tattoos with the help of henna. If your group includes children, then they will open a huge space for games and entertainment.
"Interactive tour" in the open-air museum.
If you wish to weave the carpet yourself, make a vase of clay with your own hands on a potter's wheel, bake bread in an old oven and knock with a hammer in a real smithy, a special "Interactive Tour" will be organized for you. An interactive tour is organized by the museum staff for each group and other visitors are not allowed to it. The tour should be booked in advance, but it is paid for at the museum's ticket office. This tour costs 88 $ for the whole group and is not included in the tour price (personally I highly recommend to order it, because it is the "fairy tale" of this excursion).
The museum-fortress.
Then we will go to the ancient fortress. By an amazing spiral staircase we will climb to the top of the fortress and admire from the heights to the whole Absheron. I will tell you the history of this fortress, how it was built, how repeatedly it was destroyed and rebuilt. Then we'll go down to the fortress and walk through underground secret passages. Visiting this fortress will surely be remembered for you for life.
Museum of antiques.
After getting out of the underground tunnels, we will go to a modern building - the Museum of Antique Objects. In this museum are collected ancient objects, which people used every day (oil lamps, irons, etc.), there is even a medieval phaeton. But the bulk of the exhibits is a huge collection of old samovars (I'll tell you an amazing story of this collection).
International exhibition "From waste to art".
Finally, the visit to the museum "From waste to art" will help us to return to the present era.
In this museum you can admire the amusing works of art made of various household waste - CD, wires, bulbs, wheels, etc. In the museum you can find very interesting works of masters from Italy, Spain, America and many countries. I will tell you who was founded and how this museum was created. You will be very surprised!
Amusement park «Qala Aylendje»
After the tour, we can drop into the amusement park "Qala Aylendje", where you can have fun at various attractions. The cost of attractions is not included in the tour price.

Jalal is a consummate professional. His tour as guide was superb. He was knowledgeable and speaks perfect English. The tour itself was comprehensive. There is a fortress and tower to explore. A museum with artifacts. There is an open air museum to show what life was like thousands of years ago. A bonus is the modern art museum that features waste products that artists have turned into truly amazing art.
