Where to start
If you have not booked yet, start with when to come, because the season changes what is possible more here than in most countries, then the visa and money questions.
If you are already booked, read the airport guide before you fly. The most common way visitors lose money in Azerbaijan happens in the first twenty minutes after landing.
If you are planning the days themselves, things to do in Baku covers the capital and day trips covers what is reachable beyond it, with honest driving times.
If you are already here, what to eat, where to shop and what to take home are the ones our drivers get asked about most.
