KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Baku
- Car rental in Baku is the top choice of transport if you want to spend the day seeing touristy inner city spots, glorious skylines and getting to know the inner spirit of this Azerbaijan delight. Once you are finished with the city exploration, you will not want to miss a trip along the Caspian coastline and a possible visit to the Absheron Peninsula to see the Ateshgah Fire Temple and the gorgeous gas vents of Yanar Da. If you have to get public transport to these places, you are going to waste a lot of time waiting around and checking public transport timetables, so a rental car should be the first choice.
- There is a selection of major car rental companies available at Heydar Aliyev Airport (GYD) for your car rental in Baku. Popular companies are Sixt, Europcar, Thrifty, Hertz and Avis, but take a look around to see if you can get some better deals from smaller companies. Convenient companies to rent from are SIXT or Hertz, as they provide pick-ups at the airport, meaning you don’t need to arrange a shuttle or a taxi.
- Driving in Baku, Azerbaijan, is fairly safe and easy, as there are well-maintained, modern road networks connecting the inner and outer regions. There are so many rugged areas with incredible landscapes out of the city to explore, but you must research the routes and the road conditions before you set out on your journey. Depending on what sort of trip you are planning, choose a compact car for city driving or a 4x4 or SUV for road tripping.
- Car rental in Baku is a wise option if you want to explore the whole region and not just the bright lights of the city. As it is a city, you are going to encounter some congested roads and should avoid peak hour traffic if possible. Take into account that if you are travelling out of the city and to another destination, there are no streetlights through in-between areas, so drive cautiously at night. We would suggest you keep your road tripping to the daytime.

Map out your journey on your phone travel app before your journey, as sometimes the speed limits change very quickly and it is not always very well signposted along the road. There are speed cameras and so if you are not paying attention, you may have to pay speed fines when you return your rental car.
Where are the best places to park in Baku?
Although the city of Baku is busy, there are still lots of options for you to park your rental car. You can find roadside parking for free, but be aware that this is not always the safest; with the volume of traffic, you might just get a ding or a scratch on your car. A safer option is to use a paid car park, as there your car is under cover and protected. You can park in shopping centres and pay by the hour, and the closer to the city centre, the higher the price for parking is going to be. There are lots of options open to you, so plan ahead where you will park before your drive.
