Best season to visit Azerbaijan
- Spring season (April to June)
Azerbaijan is especially a treat for the eyes during the Spring season as the land comes alive with a carpet of greenery and blossoms. This period also boasts the most pleasant weather, allowing you to witness the natural beauty and cultural events. The sight of wildflowers blooming in the Caucasus Mountains as the snow melts is not to be missed. Additionally, you can experience the patriotic celebrations marking the anniversary of the Azerbaijan Democratic Republic. However, this might be the most expensive time to travel due to the influx of tourists.
- Summer Season (June to August)
Azerbaijan is lively during the summer months, as it is the ideal time to enjoy the beach. As the weather tends to be warm and dry, it is good for hikes and treks. Open-air events and summer festivals are amusing events of the season.
- Winter Season (December to March)
- Winter is the least traveled time, yet it presents a quieter and dreamier experience. It is known for its snowy landscapes, New Year celebrations, winter sports and thermal baths. While Spring is the best time to experience the vibrant city life, cultural celebrations, and natural splendor, the other seasons offer their own distinct features.
Transportation in Azerbaijan
You can move around the city using public transportation, which can be very convenient. Baku has direct railway connections to a wide range of cities and towns. Buses are a frequent mode of transport for getting in and around the city. The prices vary based on the choice of transportation, but they can be as affordable as 0.30 AZN for a standard bus ticket. It is also possible to opt for private transfers as part of Azerbaijan holiday packages for group travel.
- Bus - Hop on a bus or marshrutka (mini-bus) to get anywhere in the city. Marshrutkas are popular transport options that operate on fixed routes and usually run on a timetable. There are also intercity buses that are comfortable and air-conditioned. Buses are the easiest, most frequent, and convenient choice of transport.
- Trains - Get on the trains to travel around, especially for longer distances within Azerbaijan. It might be a bit slower and less frequent than buses, but taking trains at night can save a night’s accommodation. You need a rechargeable travel card (BakiKart) to access public transportation, including metro lines and some ferry services. Baku has direct trains to a wide range of cities and towns within Azerbaijan. To ensure a sleeping bunk, it is advisable to book in advance.
- Private Transfers - If you seek more privacy and comfort, car rentals are a good alternative. Shared transfers like buses and minivans can be arranged for group travels to move about at your own pace. These services are included as part of our customized packages.
