Petroglyphs and Volcanoes!
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!

Ancient Rock Art and Mud Volcanoes
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.
