Warmth and knowledge in the cold. - We had an amazing time on this tour! Our guide, Nazperi, was an absolute ray of sunshine, even in the chilly 3°C weather. Her sweet and caring nature brought us warmth, especially when the weather app told us it felt like -7°C up in the mountains. She shared fascinating insights about every place we visited, making the experience both informative and engaging. Nazperi took exceptional care of everyone in the group, making us feel genuinely valued. Such a kind and wonderful guide – she truly made our day unforgettable!

Amazing day trip of Gobustan Absheron with Naz - Despite it being a cold and windy day, the entire day was amazing because of an amazing group of co tourists and definitely because of the amazing bundle of energy who is Naz!

Amazing experience - “A Perfect Blend of History and Nature!” Exploring Gobustan and Absheron was an unforgettable experience! Our guide brought the region’s rich history to life, from the ancient petroglyphs of Gobustan to the fascinating mud volcanoes, fire mountain and temple. The Absheron Peninsula offered stunning landscapes, unique cultural landmarks, and a perfect mix of adventure and tranquility. The attention to detail and enthusiasm of our guide made the tour even more special. Highly recommend this journey for history buffs and nature lovers alike! Special mention to our guide “Naz” she was brilliant and will definitely recommend friends to Azerbaijan travels next time with Naz being the host !!

A long and packed day to enjoy with a lot of sightseeing - The tour was amazing although we lost the opportunity of seeing Mud Volcanoes due to rainy season conditions, they are inaccessible. Mud Volcanoes are replaced with a new destination for compensation. Our tour guide Seyidaga was informative, we had a lot of fun on the way and during the visits. My 8 year old daughter enjoyed the tour a lot and had a lof of chat with Seyidaga. He was kind, cooperative and enthusiastic. Due to seasonal conditions, the tour might feel more tiring than it should be because of cold and wind of winter, as we chose to stay in the van when we reached Yanardag- instead of seeing it. The tour is packed with a lot of sightseeing, Gobustan being the highlight of the tour as it was fascinating to see real prehistorical petroglyphs. Unfortunately the lunch offered was not good, that is why I gave 4 stars.
