Nice day trip - We participated in the day trip to Guba and ended the day with wonderful memories. Our tour guide, Samir, was very kind and always attentive to all participants. He consistently provided information about each attraction we visited. The lunch was delicious. Although the brochure didn't include any pictures of the restaurant or the food, it definitely deserves a mention! Overall, it was a fantastic experience and we highly recommend this tour

Like a Day with Friends - This tour company is so well run, I cannot praise it highly enough. The office manager, Ramin, set up an individualized itinerary that took me to historical places other tours were not willing to stop at. As for the tour itself, my day spent with Sabina and Elmar was the high point of my trip to Central Asia. Both of them were so knowledgeable and kind, deeply rooted in the local culture of Baku and able to explain anything we encountered. The pacing of the tour was perfect, giving a visitor a rich, personal impression of the Absheron peninsula, thoughtfully presented by Sabina, without overwhelming you with random facts. An outstanding experience.

Tour to Gobustan - Thanks to the organizers and guide Rza for the wonderful tour to Gobustan. The road was in a comfortable bus with a compact group, with stops for lunch and short breaks. My daughter is excited about visiting the volcanoes and the Gobustan Valley, me too! On the way, Rza shared a very large amount of information from different periods of history connected to the territory of Azerbaijan. Reading some of the reviews, I'm wondering what anyone would hate. Excellent tour and very pleasant guide.

Baku peninsula highlights - A good day trip if you have limited time in Baku. Riad was informative and enthusiastic and obviously passionate about history. For the cost it was good value and I enjoyed the mud volcanoes journey and views at Gobustan. Lunch was a brief stop and felt could be better if the host/guide sat with the group as the group did not interact much. The trip to Yanardag was interesting to see while it still remains. I enjoyed the journey and scenery along the way. All the oil wells were fascinating as they seem everywhere. My only criticism was I felt we were too much on the clock and a little rushed.

Good way to see Baku surrounds - Reza was a brilliant guide, and ran the tour bilingually in English and Russian. Some parts felt a bit rushed, and I would have liked more time at the mud volcanoes, but overall everything was fine. The fire mountain was a bit overwhelming, but it is what it is!
