Included in your trip
The direct route is approximately 120 km. Allow additional time for sightseeing, meal breaks and road conditions. A return fare does not automatically include an overnight stay.
Send your pickup address, date, passenger and luggage count, and the places you want to visit. Tickets, meals, accommodation and paid parking are separate from the transport fare.
Tell the driver whether Shamakhi is the destination or a stop on the way to Gabala. Diri Baba, the mosque and other visits need time outside the car. Share any timed booking so the pickup and order can be planned around it.
Send travel dates, pickup and return addresses, passengers and luggage together. Stops wherever you wish along the journey, waiting and cancellation are free. The driver confirms the final vehicle and fare personally; no prepayment is required.
Confirm the service format with the addresses and dates. The same destination can require different transport arrangements.
Travel from your agreed pickup to the destination. Send the actual hotel entrance, not only the town name. A later collection or journey back needs its own confirmation.
Include the outward drive, time at your visits and the drive back. Mark your essential stops and agree the return pickup. Waiting and ordinary stops along the journey are free.
Send both dates and each hotel in order. Specify whether the car stays available between visits or whether you only need separate transfers. Request one total for the complete plan.
The agreed car, driver, fuel, waiting and stops along the journey are included. Cancellation is free and no prepayment is required. Tickets, meals, hotels, professional guiding and third-party paid parking are separate. Agree a changed destination or extra service hours before proceeding.
For a Baku to Shamakhi transfer, decide whether Shamakhi is your final stop or part of a journey towards Gabala or Lahij. Send the hotel address and any planned visits together so the route does not double back unnecessarily. A sightseeing stop on the way changes the schedule, even when the stop itself has no extra charge.
Send your pickup and drop-off addresses first. For a visit to Shamakhi, choose your main stop, such as Juma Mosque, and allow time to walk around. A lunch break or a visit beyond the city changes the arrival time. If you continue to Gabala or Lahij, agree on the full route before setting off.
