About tour
The Gobustan-Absheron tour is a favorite among sightseeing routes in Baku. Entirely historical, it introduces visitors to our culture, the unique nature of the Absheron peninsula, and the adjacent Gobustan desert. The tour routes lead you to active mud volcano craters, salt lakes of the semi-desert, and the most extreme mountain of the Greater Caucasus, where flames emerge from the depths. You'll also experience the meditative, otherworldly landscape of rocky hills and the expanses of oil rig fields.
Our professional team provides tourists with rich insights into various historical epochs of Azerbaijan. From the Stone Age to contemporary history and current realities, from Roman legionnaires to Hindu ascetics, the events and personalities will become an unforgettable part of your new understanding of the country called Azerbaijan.
