Mud Volcanoes & Gobustan tour (Group & Private)

Very interesting trip to Gobustan and the Mud Volcanoes. Our Guide, Samir, was so knowledgeable and amusing!

We had an enjoyable time and learned about the history. The tour guide, Sameer, had a great sense of humor. He spoke English, Russian, and of course his native language. Driver was good. The rock art Qubstan / Gobustan was well preserved and not too crowded. Useable bathroom and small snack shop. We went in smaller taxis to the mud volcanoes. We also stopped at smaller places. Overall 5 hours.

A bit of a drive but worth seeing some unique nature and ancient history. Our guide provided great insight along the way.

The trip was amazing, we visited 5-6 places. The trip was well planned although we were not able to spend alott of time since we were running on a given scheduled but it was fun. Some of the main attraction has been covered during the Trip. The tour guide was knowledgeable although he smoke alott. He tried his best to interact, crack jokes and keep the atmosphere Alive kicking. There was some other charges during the trip so choose the package accordingly and read the description about it. We had an amazing lunch before visiting the Fire temple, Be mindful that there won't be any breakfast break during the trip so carry something to eat in case you can't enjoy with empty stomach. For the given package the trip was worth it. Hope the review helps.

推荐这个旅行社！！！导游和司机都很好，全程导游都在讲解，即使天气特别热。没有额外收费，全程只付了一日团的费用和详情中提到的越野车和门票费。 午饭在最后一站火神庙附近吃的，价格便宜味道也很好。 不给满分是因为被去泥火山的越野车司机强制要了5马纳特的小费。 我自己准备好了所有的东西（一个空瓶子装泥，一个水瓶用来洗手），到了泥火山后我接完了一瓶泥，但是因为觉得太稀了就倒了准备去换厚一点的泥，越野车司机看到后过来说了几句阿塞拜疆语，未经我们的同意直接从我们手里拿走了空泥瓶，并把它随手扔到了远处（于是我的瓶子被作为垃圾留在了泥火山，他一点都不保护环境，而且那是我的瓶子）。然后他把我的水瓶里的水倒了，并用那个瓶子我接了一瓶新的泥，最后用他车里的水给我冲洗了手和灌了泥的瓶子（然而这些我都可以自己完成）。 他以此向我索要了5AZN小费，出于礼貌和不想影响同车人旅游的心情，我没有拒绝还是付了小费，但是我一点都不喜欢他的行为而且我也不觉得他做的事值得我付给他小费。

Guide ( cannot recall his name ...elderly person with a big nose) was excellent! Very knowledgeable and with a good sense of humour.

Hello there. The tour was Absheron-Gobustan, the guide we had was Samir. The guide speaks good Russian, knows many jokes. Very fun, interestingly told the tour. Have a good time! Thanks to your company!

Increíble!!! Simply amazing! The things we saw in the tour are from other planet. Mud volcanoes are like the moon. I highly recommend. Special mention to Jacob our guide he’s super kind and friendly, explained to us everything about the old carvings and volcanoes. It totally worth it!!

Very good experience, Jacob our guide is very friendly and cheerful, besides that he is watching the whole group, his English is very clear and understandable, I recommend this company, although the visit of the volcanoes could be longer since it is the Highlight of the tour should be dedicated more time.

26.11.24 I went on a tour of Gobustan and Mud Volcanoes. The volcanoes didn't really impress me, 15 manats per entry, and the inspection for 40 minutes. From the pros that they paved a civil road and built a tourist complex. Volcanoes on a circular route. I beat 😄 twice And Gobustan Reserve itself is a 2-storey archaeological museum (pity only the exposition in non-Russian) and a park of petroglyphs. And for all 10 manats! If it wasn't for the tour group I'd be there all day 🤣 P.S. Special thanks to guide Mehti! ❤️
