IMPORTANT NOTES Having a valid passport and/or having obtained a visa (for destinations/passports requiring a visa) does not necessarily mean that entry into the country will be permitted. The passport police have the authority to deny you entry into the country. The agency is not responsible for this situation; responsibility belongs to the passenger. The agency is an intermediary institution between the airline and the passenger and is subject to the Hague Protocol dated 28.09.1955. There may be a risk of delay on scheduled and special flights, or the times before the current trip and flight may change. The agency is obliged to notify these changes as soon as possible. Our passengers have purchased the tour knowing and accepting that flight details may change. Children aged 0-2 do not pay airport tax and airport service fees. Panoramic city tours included in the tour package are tours organized for the general introduction of cities, lasting at most 2-3 hours, and conducted panoramically with guide narration from inside the vehicle, excluding entrance fees to museums and archaeological sites. Panoramic tours, including other tours specified in the program, are not the responsibility of the agency if they cannot be carried out on the day and time of the tour due to roads closed by local authorities, places that are not permitted to be visited or entered, or due to closed roads because of any event, or when it becomes impossible to conduct the tour due to weather conditions. Some tours may be conducted by public transportation or on foot where possible at closed roads or points where vehicle entry is not permitted. ## Tour Program ### Istanbul - Baku We depart for Baku on a scheduled Turkish Airlines flight after meeting at the International Departures Terminal of Istanbul Airport.
