Car rental at Baku Heydar Aliyev Airport

Since Baku is a city full of cars but with fewer parking spaces, it is recommended to get yourself a compact car instead of a larger one. Additionally, if you can drive a stick, you’ll save some more money compared to hiring an automatic car. Navigating the streets of Baku with a small car is quite easy as compared to using a heavy car for the same purpose. However, if you are in a position to walk or are planning to tour the city, you would be better off parking your hire vehicle centrally and then using public transportation, which is quite affordable.

Generally, when driving your car hire at Baku Heydar Aliyev Airport and around the city, the speed limits are quite high in Azerbaijan; although, in 2016 the speed limits on outer roads were reduced from 120 km/h to 100 km/h, from 100 km/h to 80 km/h and from 80 km/h to 60 km/h. These speed limits are to be adhered to. In built-up areas, you should travel at 40 to 60 km/h; check the speed limit signs on the road for the allowable speed.

Baku Heydar Aliyev Airport car hire can be quite stressful, especially when looking for a parking space. Baku has congested streets and too many cars, hence, a shortage of appropriate parking spaces. However, if you intend to park your car, you might want to try the Baku Common underground garage for the day. This is a recommended place to park your car, since it's hard to miss out on a spot, especially after the morning rush hour ends at around 10:00. You should, however, check out the parking regulations of your destination prior to your visit.
