Explore Gobustan National Park, the mud volcanoes, Ateshgah Fire Temple, and Yanardağ on a guided full-day tour, with an EZRaider ride and visits to Baku’s historic outskirts included.
Getting started
Begin your full day tour by boarding your roundtrip transportation from Baku with your multilingual guide. After a brief introduction to the route and safety guidelines, you set off toward the Gobustan region. The first stage of the journey focuses on leaving the city behind and reaching the semi-desert landscapes that frame your later stops.
World’s first industrial oil well & Bibi-Heybat Mosque
What to expect
Your first stops take you just outside Baku to two important landmarks tied to Azerbaijan’s oil history and spiritual heritage.
Features
Visit the site of the world’s first industrially drilled oil well, a landmark that shaped Azerbaijan’s role in the global oil industry.
Stop at Bibi-Heybat Mosque, a reconstructed 13th-century mosque overlooking the Caspian coast, known for its striking architecture and cultural significance.
Gobustan National Park and rock art area
What to expect
This section of the tour takes you into the Gobustan area, known for its rocky terrain and archaeological significance. You visit the Gobustan Rock Arts zone as one of the core outdoor stops on the route.
Features
You walk among the rock formations where the Gobustan Rock Arts site is located, with time to observe the landscape and understand how this plateau connects to the wider semi-desert around Baku.
Your multilingual guide shares context about the Gobustan Rock Arts area and the wider region as you move between viewpoints, adapting explanations to your chosen language option when available.
Mud volcanoes
What to expect
The tour continues off-road to the mud volcanoes area near Gobustan. This is one of the most distinctive landscapes on the itinerary and involves dedicated off-road access.
Features
You travel over rough terrain directly to the Mud Volcanoes, with the off-road fee to Mud Volcanoes already included so there is no separate payment required for this section of the route.
Time at the site lets you observe the mud pools and conical mounds from close range, with space to walk around and photograph the surrounding semi-desert setting.
An EZRaider ride is included in your experience, giving your group access to these off-road sections with suitable equipment that is arranged in advance by the operator.
Ateshgah Fire Temple
What to expect
Next you head to the Ateshgah Fire Temple area on the Absheron Peninsula. This stop focuses on the historic fire worship site and its courtyard complex.
Features
You enter the Ateshgah Fire Temple grounds, walk through the central courtyard, and view the fire altar and surrounding structures at your own pace within the guided schedule.
Commentary from your multilingual guide outlines how Ateshgah fits into the wider story of fire-related sites around Baku.
Yanardağ
What to expect
The route then continues to Yanardağ Burning Mountain, known for its hillside gas flames. This is another key stop where you spend time at an open-air viewpoint.
Features
You approach the Yanardağ slope and spend time at the viewing area that overlooks the continuous line of flames along the exposed hillside.
Your multilingual guide describes how Yanardağ Burning Mountain connects to the natural gas landscape around Baku, answering questions while you move between vantage points.
