AZERBAIJAN · GOBUSTAN ROCK ART & MUD VOLCANOES
46 reviewed
Gobustan is the day trip almost every visitor takes, and the operators sell near-identical versions of it.

“The guide is meticulous and explains everything in details. We are lucky to have a small group tour, with a total of 5 people in the first part, and only 2 for the second part of the tour. Lunch at a nice local restaurant which we paid 20 manat each for a lot of food. It’d be nice if we can have more chances to take photos but we were rushing from one place to another.”
