I booked a private mud volcanoes/Gobustsn tour and I was picked up/dropped off at the airport. Being just myself, the guide was able to customize it to what I liked. Chinara is amazing, with all the historical information up to modern day events, all stored in her head! Our driver, Adil, was awesome! He drives like I do! ! Seeing the ancient petroglyphs along with the bubbling mud volcanoes was so interesting! The landscape made me feel like I was on the moon! Excellent Tour, highly recommended!
We had an amazing time exploring Gobustan and the mud volcanoes in Azerbaijan. The ancient rock carvings in Gobustan were fascinating, and the guide, Tahir, did a great job explaining their history. Visiting the mud volcanoes was a unique and fun experience β totally different from anything we've seen before.
Excellent tour company, extremely organized and professional. Our guide Tahir was exceptionally knowledgeable and shared more than just the petroglyph and mud volcanoes. He gave us a true glimpse in the life of Azerbaijanis. We had an absolutely amazing day. Thanks to Fuad, Tahir and driver Amir.
