Prices in Baku

Appearing in an unfamiliar city, the main thing is to get to know it as close as possible from the beginning. Indeed, knowledge is the basis for the rational use of one’s time and resources. Knowledge is power, no matter how trite it may sound. Becoming a client of Azerbaijan Travel Internasional, the tourist receives from our guides not only general information about history, culture and nature, he/she receives instructions on the applied features of real, today’s Azerbaijan. Including the prices of goods and services.

When the guest knows all details, the main psychological barrier of the “stranger/alien” is erased and the guest starts navigating in another country without a stress and pressure. We sincerely wish everyone who has chosen tours to Azerbaijan to be free and relaxed and want to introduce the reader the prices in Baku.
