Cery plesant day trip - We had an amazing Gobustan and Absheron tour with our guide Emin. The car arrived on time, perfectly clean, and even prepared with water for us, which was a very thoughtful detail. Everything was organized smoothly from start to finish, making the day truly enjoyable. Emin was professional, knowledgeable, and very friendly, which made the tour even more special. I highly recommend this company to anyone visiting Azerbaijan – a professional service that guarantees a memorable experience!

Unforgettable and Amazing tour - Our Gobustan and Absheron tour was simply unforgettable! From the moment we started, everything was perfectly organized and very comfortable. The highlight of the trip was definitely our guide, Emin – his deep knowledge, friendly attitude, and engaging way of telling stories brought history and culture to life in the most enjoyable way. We discovered mud volcanoes, ancient rock carvings, temples, and beautiful coastal landscapes all in one day. Everything went smoothly, and we felt well taken care of the whole time. I highly recommend this company to anyone who wants a professional and memorable experience in Azerbaijan.

The Best of Azerbaijan - This is a wonderful tour. If you visit Azerbaijan, you should not pass up an opportunity to see the rock drawings in Gobustan, the mud volcanoes on the Absheron Peninsula, the Ateshgah Fire Temple, Yanar Dag, and the Bibi-Heybat Mosque. Emin was a fabulous guide and driver and provide excellent insight into the context and histories. There was so much to do and see, but I never felt rushed. Truly, of all my fantastic memories visiting Baku, this was a day that I will not forget. It was worth every manat!

False itinerary. So disappointing. - Sadly this was a total rip off. I’ve done dozens of Viator trips and felt so let down. The trip advertised as 9 hours was only 5 hours at most. Our driver was very pleasant with broken English but the advert was for a professional guide. We were left to pay and enter 3 sites on our own with no help and most of the itinerary was totally missed, I have photographic evidence of the itinerary and only half of it was visited. Even though it said entrance fees to Gosha Gala Tower, Bibi-Heybat Mosque and the Mud Volcanoes were included they were not and to add salt to wounds we were told that if we wanted to visit the mud volcanoes it would cost a further 60 manat 🤔
