Probably the most practical way of visiting mud volcanoes, the fire temple and other regional places of interest in one day. Getting to these places by public transport would have been rather lengthy and exhausting. Usually, for 50 manat transport and guide are included but entries and lunch arenβt (approx. additional 30 manat in total). Some providers offer an all-inclusive version for 80 manat + An interesting day. Wito W August 20, 2019

Found this tour on viator. After having compared with other one day tour, I chose this one without hesitation because this tour appeared to offer the best value. Indeed it is! We saw a lot of sites in and around Baku. We went to the heritage sites of Gobustan Rock Art and fire temple, saw a beautiful landscape with mud volcanoes, visited an innovative piece of architecture (Heydar Aliyev Cultural Centre), and had a local delicious lunch. With a very reasonable cost, the value offered is simply super! Fuad is a funny guy. He does not only recite information. He tried to make sure that you enjoy the tour all along. He also gave good guidance in the museums that we visited. Thumbs up! Alvin Lee September 22, 2019
I and my wife had must see the mud volcanoes and fire mountain with Ramil. He was so fabolous! He gave so much information about his family and history of Azerbaijan. At the end of the tour, we felt like we knew him all our lives. As I said before "Simply Greatt". thank you very much for a great experience. victor September 26, 2019
