A private transfer from Heydar Aliyev Airport to Shamakhi — about 135 km and a little under two hours, bypassing central Baku.

Shamakhi is the first real stop on the road into the mountains, and a common overnight for people heading to Gabala or Sheki without wanting the full drive in one go.

Frequently asked questions

Why not go through Baku?
You can, but there is no reason to. The direct route avoids city traffic and is the shorter journey.
Can we go on to Gabala the next day?
Yes — Shamakhi is directly on that road. Ask us and we will arrange the onward leg, ideally with the same driver.
Does the driver meet us inside the terminal?
Yes, in the arrivals hall with a name sign, after customs. Waiting for a delayed flight is free.
Are there hotels in Shamakhi?
There are, including places in the surrounding vineyards. We do not book accommodation, but tell us the name of yours and the driver takes you directly there.
