The Cultural Landscape covers three an area of 537 ha and three areas of a plateau of rocky boulders rising out of the semi-desert of central Azerbaijan, with an outstanding collection of more than 6,000 rock engravings bearing testimony to 40,000 years of rock art.

Fanatics day tour from Baku - We had an awesome day tour of the Absheron Peninsula. The Gobustan mud volcanos and national park and the fire temple were super unique. Baku private tours made our trip easy and comfortable. They were flexible to adjust so that we could be at the mid volcanoes at sunset. I highly recommend the tour and the company to anyone coming to Baku.

Exactly as expected! - This tour was such a delight, made so especially by my our guide Fuad. With his friendly personality and enthusiasm for what he does, he helped us to appreciate the tour at a deeper level. Enjoyed the marvellous Rock carvings, Mud volcanoes and Flame mountain.

Fully satisfied! - We had long day tour with guide Elnara and same driver Intiqam. Learned a lot from her about the petroglyphs in Gobustan and touched the mud in Volcanos area. We saw the fire temple and fire mountain in same day. If you visit those areas you will understand that why Azerbaijan called the name "Land of fire Azerbaijan". Highly recommended!
