Luke 3:1 tells us that John was baptising people in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, which would be about 29 CE. Luke does not say how long it was before Jesus came to be baptised, but it is generally assumed to have been in the same year.
This information should be viewed with caution, because Luke's Gospel was not written until around the end of the first century, much too late for the author to have reliable information apart from his main sources. The main source used by Luke for the life and mission of Jesus was Mark's Gospel, which does not tell us when Jesus began his preaching.
