Les historiens azerbaïdjanais ont trouvé des documents dans les archives russes confirmant qu'un puits de pétrole a été foré sur le champ de Bibi-Heybat près de Bakou en 1846. Ce puits peut donc être considéré comme le premier au monde, car il est apparu 13 ans avant le début de la production commerciale de pétrole aux États-Unis.
Bibi-Heybet (tante de la poupe) est un 'pir' situé près des montagnes de Bakou au milieu d'un vaste cimetière. La tombe de Bibi-Heybet, l'un des proches du prophète Mahomet, est située dans une vaste mosquée, très volontiers visitée par les musulmans. Bibi-Heybet est célèbre pour son pouvoir miraculeux de guérir les malades. Beaucoup de musulmans lèguent pour être enterrés près de cette mosquée.
Un volcan de boue est une formation géologique constituée d'un trou ou d'une dépression à la surface de la terre, ou d'une élévation en forme de cône avec un cratère, à partir de laquelle de la boue et des gaz sont continuellement ou périodiquement en éruption. Ce type de volcan se trouve principalement dans les zones pétrolifères et volcaniques.
Gobustan est l'une des réserves historiques et archéologiques les plus célèbres au monde, un musée en plein air avec une énorme collection d'objets historiques inestimables
Temple des adorateurs du feu "Ateshgah" - les premières structures du temple Ateshgah remontent aux deuxième et troisième siècles. A cette époque, le zoroastrisme s'est répandu en Azerbaïdjan et des temples zoroastriens ont commencé à être construits dans les régions. Le temple Ateshgah à Surakhani a fonctionné jusqu'au VIIe siècle. On sait que l'islam a été adopté en Azerbaïdjan au VIIe siècle.
Yanardag est l'une des attractions naturelles les plus étonnantes de la péninsule d'Absheron. C'est un flanc de montagne enflammé qui ne peut être éteint par la pluie ou le sable et qui brûle depuis plusieurs millénaires. Le paysage ardent effrayant mais fascinant est en fait très simple à expliquer : du gaz naturel est libéré des couches supérieures du sol, qui se transforme en flammes lorsqu'il entre en contact avec l'oxygène.

Wonderful tour. Riad was an amazing guide who shared a lot of knowledge with us making it super easy and fun to then experience the sights. He was also super fun to have with you that he made the tour really really fun. Extremely helpful he answered every question with clarity. Great guy.
If you are interested in culture and history, take this tour! We saw wonderful places and learned so much. Riad, our guide, was very knowledgeable and thorough. He was able to answer all of our questions (and I’m a historian, so that’s really important to me). He also promoted camaraderie among our group members. We really enjoyed the experience!
Had an excellent day on this tour with Riad, an amazing guide! The best part for me was that the itinerary was organized to see the places outside of Baku that would be challenging to reach efficiently if I was doing it on my own. I appreciated that the tour covered all the places that were intended; the timing ran long because of heavy traffic in Baku. Some other guests were able to break off based on their own needs. The lunch was great! Riad made sure everyone was seeing everything and speaks Russian & English perfectly. Riad was entertaining and engaging. No one will be bored. Good communication too about meeting location and timing.
Very good experience with a very enthusiast guide, he spoke about everything and always quite attentive. I really recommend.
Ryad was very knowledgeable, enthusiastic, energetic, patient and passionate. He gave very good and thorough explanations. He masters several languages, and made sure that everyone in the group understands. The only main setback with the tour is the lunch. First of all it is quite late (15-16). Second of all - the resturant is a tourist trap. The resturant called "bibi restaurant" (you can check the reviews), the prices are 3-4 times more than most restaurants. The food isn't good - isn't tasty and in small portions. All the people who eats there are people from tours, how clearly don't know any better. If you can order tickets to this tour without already pay for lunch then don't reserve lunch. It is better to just go to any other restaurant near by and eat there. Last thing - in the description it said that the tour include visit to Heydar Aliyev Center, but the itinerary doesn't mention it - and in the tour itself we indeed never visited there.
Riadh is a great guide! So energetic, positive, and talkative. We learned so much from him. The tour itself was good, but without him, it wouldn’t have been the same. He is truly giving his best, and it is obvious that he loves his job and tries to do as much as he can for everyone. Everything he did was highly appreciated. Thank you once again, Riadh!
This tour hits all of the highlights and was the perfect amount of time at each stop. I was thoroughly impressed. You would be SO LUCKY if you have Riad as your guide. 1) he’s extremely knowledgeable, 2) he’s on top of time, 3) you can tell from the beginning he’s passionate and wants to make sure you learn about the subject matter. You will leave with a greater appreciation of Azerbaijani history. 10/10 this company is legit.
The tour guide is professional, patient, always smiles when facing group members from all walks of life, and explains history in a very engaging way. He can explain in three languages, Azerbaijani, Russian, and English, and is very professional. The driver's attitude was good; they didn't overtake, and even when encountering road construction in the deep mountains with poor road conditions, they drove smoothly and calmly, which made us feel very safe. In terms of dining, the food is not bad, and the restaurant environment is also very elegant, feeling very comfortable.
Our guide Elvin was great and patient and we ended up seeing most of the important things around baku. Only thing was we were stuck in traffic for a long time because of formula 1.
We really enjoyed this tour and had a great day discovering Azerbaijan. Our guide, Riad, was definitely the highlight. He is incredibly knowledgeable, cultured, and genuinely passionate about sharing his knowledge. What made the experience especially special for us as Algerians was how naturally he connected with us and found similarities between our cultures. His stories and explanations made every place we visited much more interesting. Gobustan and the mud volcanoes were fascinating and definitely among the memorable experiences of our trip. We came away with great memories and would happily recommend this tour, especially with Riad as your guide! ❤️
