Gopustan, mud volcano, firefly ride - We took the bus from the meeting point at 7:40 a.m. The bus was well-maintained and clean. Our guide during the day, Mrs. Nazperi is very knowledgeable and speaking. Gopustan open-air museum and indoor museums provided some insight into our trip. We then toured the firehouse , which is a major part of the Zerdüştlish religion , where the methane gas burns from underneath a rock that goes through a volcano . Our guide, Nazperi, told us where to go on the bus, with pictures and videos both oral and tablet. It was a nice (cool) trip. Thank you

Beautiful Baku Beautiful Tour Makes It Smarter... - While we picked out the cooler days of Baku, one of our top decisions was to join this beautiful tour. In particular, the tour guide, Miss Nazperi, was very attentive and informative. They first took us to the world’s first oil monument. Afterward, Gobustan, Volcano, mud volcanoes and Fireplace were a great experience. Where to see attractions means more if there’s a narrative. Our tour guide, Miss Nazperi, answered all of our questions. This tour may only be about the food. We think it would be better if they didn’t make a deal and left it in a space with multiple options to eat everyone. It was the worst meal I have had in a city known for its gastronomy. I hope they use it to improve themselves. We’ll go back in May or June.
