FAQs
Short answers to what travellers ask about Azerbaijan (Baku).

April to May and September to October are the most comfortable. July and August are hot, and winter is cold and quieter. The mountain snow season runs mainly from December to March.
Russian and English are commonly used in tourism, particularly in Baku. English is less consistent outside the main cities. Carry your hotel's address written in local script and in English, and use a translation app for smaller towns.

Main tourist areas are generally manageable with normal precautions. Keep copies of your passport and e-Visa, use metered taxis or booked ride apps, and check official advisories. Avoid restricted border areas.
