A very enjoyable Old and Modern City Tour with a nice balance between history and modern life. The wine tasting was a pleasant addition and felt relaxed, not rushed. Our guide Adil was knowledgeable, friendly, and explained everything clearly. Overall, a well-organized tour that I’d happily recommend.
Best experience ever

I had a fantastic experience on the Gobustan Safari Rock Art Museum and Mud Volcanoes tour. It was one of the most interesting and memorable excursions I’ve done in Azerbaijan. Gobustan is an incredible place - the ancient rock carvings, the open landscapes, and the deep sense of history make it truly unique. The off-road drive to the mud volcanoes was exciting, and the scenery really does feel like another planet. Seeing the bubbling mud volcanoes in person was something I will never forget. Our guide Adil was outstanding. He is very knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about his country. He explained everything clearly, shared interesting facts and stories, and made the tour feel personal rather than touristy. Everything was well organized, comfortable, and stress-free. Lunch was tasty and well arranged, and the overall pace of the tour was perfect. Highly recommended if you want to see a different side of Azerbaijan with a professional and caring guide. I would definitely recommend Adil and this tour to anyone visiting Baku!
Excellent excursion – highly recommended!

This excursion to the Gobustan Safari Rock Art Museum and mud volcanoes was a real highlight of our trip. We would particularly like to highlight our guide Nurlan. Nurlan speaks very good German and has superbly looked after us throughout the day. He was extremely attentive, friendly and dedicated. We experienced a lot with him – he explained an incredible amount, gave us exciting background information and answered all our questions. You could tell that he took a lot of time for us and really wanted us to be able to enjoy and understand everything in peace. Thanks to his explanations, the rock carvings, the landscape and the mud volcanoes became particularly vivid and interesting. An all-round perfectly organized tour with a great guide. Thank you, Nurlan, for this unforgettable experience! We would book this excursion again at any time and can recommend it without restriction.
