4.00Our guide, Hikmat, assigned to us on 13th September for a Private Tour to Gobustan, was Kind, soft-spoken, and caring enough to escort us to a dinner place after the tour. We found the driver to be a little rash in his driving, but we didn't say anything to him.

Fire and mud volcanoes

4.00We saw how natural gas caused continual flames and mud volcanoes. Saw petroglyphs and a temple used by Hindus and Zoroastrists. I had to supply my own water and food (we stopped at a store). I had to pay 3 entry fees.
5 star tour from Baku!

5.00This is an amazing tour to see the iconic sites of Azerbaijan! My guides Rajab is super informative, friendly, and professional, he made sure that I learned a lot in the tour while making sure that I have everything I needed. He was enthusiastic during the entire tour, answered all my questions and was not simply spitting out historical facts, it’s like a friend is telling me a story. Our driver/guide Elnur provided exceptional luxury service. His car was clean and his driving was top notch, like a luxury hotel chauffeur lol but he is very friendly and spoke great English.
Worthwhile experience

5.00Our tour guide was accommodating, funny, informative, and a great English speaker. This was easily one of the highlights of my trip to Baku. Though the mud volcanoes themselves were a bit underwhelming, the journey there was incredible. I got in the back seat of an old Soviet sedan and tore through the dunes. On the second leg of the journey, archeology fans are guaranteed to have their minds blown. The cave drawings were as interesting as the view from the hill they rest upon. Thirdly, I didn’t know much about the Zoroastrian faith before, but my tour guide (Hikmat) was very detailed in his explanation and worked hard to sharpen my understanding. Finally, the flaming mountain was unlike anything I have encountered before. This is a wonderful experience well worth the cost.

5.00Fantastic tour with a private vehicle to 4 unique and amazing sites! We had some difficulties with the pickup (not the company's fault) and the team handled everything really smoothly with a phone call, which we really appreciated. Rajab was a great guide, very knowledgeable and helpful.
Worth it!

5.00Excellent full day tour! I had Rajab as a guide and we explored all the key spots around Baku. He was very knowledgeable, spoke perfect English, and answered any question I had - plus was nice enough to offer to take pictures. He also offered recommendations around Baku. We had a nice conversation! Highly recommend.
