“I recommend the Gobustan and Absheron Tour. Admittedly, we started quite late due to street closures, but we managed to complete the tour plan in full. However, I think the tour program was too intense and we had to rush at every place. I would add that our guide was very friendly and tried to make the trip go as well as possible.”

Review of Baku’s Gobustan and Absheron tour, with mud volcanoes, rock art, fire sites, lunch, hotel pickup, and practical booking advice.

“The tour of Gobustan, the mud volcanoes, the Bibi Heydad mosque, the fire temple and the burning mountain was a day of interesting geologic and cultural sites that gave me a pretty good overview of the forces that have shaped present day Azerbaijan.
