Impressive qobustan experience by my father - I'm studying in Azerbaijani My dad came to my vacation this week and Azerbaijani also joined the gobustan tour via tour He said he was extremely happy with this tour, although he'd been to 4-5 countries before. She was especially impressed by the attention, knowledge and friendliness of our guide, Mrs. Nazperi. Mrs. Nazperi described every detail in fluent Turkish and English. Qobustan’s deep knowledge of its stunning volcanoes and historic rock reefs has transformed the tour from an ordinary excursion into a cultural journey. My father said his energetic, friendly, and professional attitude gave the tour a special treat. I was very happy to have an unforgettable experience with such a attentive and knowledgeable Guide. Thank you very much for this wonderful tour! Highly Recommendation! 🌟

Gobustan&Absheron - As someone who’s been on tours in other countries, I can say that the guides are critical in tours. We had a very enjoyable day with Mrs. Nazperi. They used their time very efficiently and were interesting and informative. Lunch was insufficient and poor taste. Dining was not pleasant in an indoor room. Thanks🙏🏻
