The 2026 Azerbaijan Grand Prix is the first F1 race ever held on a Saturday in Baku. The change accommodates Azerbaijan national Day of Remembrance on September 27. For VIP travelers, this creates a unique opportunity: an extra full day at the destination without F1 commitments.
1. Private Yacht Charter on the Caspian
Spend Sunday on a luxury yacht with private chef service, recovering from the previous day race. The Caspian Sea offers stunning views of the Baku skyline that hosted the race the day before.
2. Helicopter Tour of Khinalig
Khinalig is one of the highest continuously inhabited villages in Europe. A helicopter tour from Baku lands you in a 5,000-year-old culture for lunch with local families, returning to the city by sunset.
3. Yanardag Fire Mountain Dinner
The Land of Fire earns its name from natural gas vents that have burned continuously for thousands of years. A private dinner at the base of Yanardag, prepared by a Michelin-trained chef, is unforgettable.
4. Beluga Caviar Masterclass
Azerbaijan produces some of the world finest Beluga caviar. A private masterclass with sturgeon farm visit and tasting of three premium grades paired with vintage champagnes.
5. After-Hours Old City Tour
Icherisheher (UNESCO Old City) closes to the public in the evening. We arrange after-hours private access for a quiet exploration with a PhD historian.
6. Caspian Sturgeon Farm Visit
Tour an exclusive sturgeon conservation farm most travelers never see the production behind the world most expensive food. Includes premium tasting.
7. Private Helicopter to Shahdag
For winter F1 travelers (Baku in late September has crisp mountain weather): helicopter to Shahdag mountain resort for lunch at altitude with Caucasus views.
