Tipps von Einheimischen
- Buy a Baku Card for unlimited public transport (metro and buses) and free/discounted entry to over 20 museums for 24, 48, or 72 hours.
- When taking a taxi, always use a ride-hailing app like Bolt or Uber to avoid price negotiations and ensure you're charged the local rate.
- Visit the Old City early in the morning (before 10 AM) to have the quiet, atmospheric lanes almost to yourself before the tour groups arrive.
