Super! - Our tour was very interesting and informative! Everything was beautifully and clearly organized. But I'd like to give a special mention to our guide, Mahabat. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable on the topic, but he's also a very charming and caring person! A huge thank you to him! Boris Bernshteyn.

Great Experience with Gobustan and Absheron Day Tour - I went yesterday with Baku City Tour for a day trip to Gobustan & Absheron and have had a great, eye-opening experience with visits to UNESCO inscribed Gobustan National Park, Mud Volcanoes, Burning Mountain & Ateshgah Fire Temple and Bibiheynat Holy Shrine. Our small group tour guide Eljan was a very energetic, knowledgeable and always smiling guide who brightened the atmosphere and made for an enjoyable and unforgettable day trip for everyone. Thank you Eljan! This tour is highly recommended!

A lovely day - Our guide Serdar was very friendly, welcoming and understanding in English. We got around well everywhere without it feeling rushed. The pickup from the hotel was also perfect. Driving the Lada out to the mud volcano was the highlight, but the other tourist attractions were also interesting. However, you have to be prepared to drive a lot during the day. A big thank you to our guide goes from here.

Worst experience - The pick up was delayed by 2 hrs and my guide was angry when confronted about it. The places were good but it was let down by the guides attitude
