Solo Female Travel in Azerbaijan

Azerbaijan, Solo travel

It was good; the food was amazing. I felt safe because it’s a Muslim country, and the people are good. Azerbaijan has beautiful nature, and what I love most are the food and the people. Baku is also beautiful; the night view of Baku is amazing.

Baku, Family travel

Its indeed very disappointing to say that baku is not at all safe for women at night specially women who are travelling alone. Every men around you is obnoxious and would stare you as if he is going to rape you. Day 1 till day 5 most of the men i met were very vile and bad and all they would look at you as if they would rape you even try to eve tease you and if you revolt back they would make sure you learn a lesson for pointing out the inadequate behaviour of men towards you.

Best food in the Caucasian region. I felt completely safe all the time, the people are awesome and friendly! So many things to see, I loved the carpet museum the most, but the Mini Dubai feeling is incredible too!

Azerbaijan, Couple travel

Yes, I felt safe. I stayed in a small hostel, it was very cheap but not very clean. Transportation was very simple and also cheap, so I downloaded the Bolt application for transportation. Azerbaijani food culture is very rich, I am sure you will like most of the restaurants. I went to a local restaurant called "Shirvanshah" and I liked it very much. There is also a very nice museum you can go to, its name is "Heydar Aliyev Center".

Baku, Solo travel

I arrived to Baku through Ganja because the tickets are way cheaper than reaching Baku directly. Ganja is one of the historical cities in Azerbijan and you can enjoy one day wandering around the city then to head to Baku through the train, it takes around 3 hours and it was super comfortable and I advice you to get the tickets ahead of time. In Baku I stayed in Zamzam hotel and its very affordable hotel and close to the center. In Baku I personally found Bolt the best way to move around the city as its cheap and easy to use. I recommend Azerbijan for female solo travellers because its safe and you will enjoy each moment in there. The food, places and people all were great.

Baku, Solo travel

Baku is stunning, pristine, well-maintained, with futuristic modern buildings and a very hospitable population. It is full of contrasts, with orthodox Muslim women on one hand, and on the other hand, there are liberal and free women dressed according to the prevailing atmosphere.

Azerbaijan, Solo travel

I spent the entire week in Baku. I stayed in two different hotels, which cost me 33 dollars and 70 dollars per night. In total, I spent about 1200 dollars for the week. I booked three full-day tours directly and paid in cash, which was much cheaper than booking online. As a woman, I traveled alone and it was safe.

Azerbaijan, Solo travel

I was in Azerbaijan for only a few days. I really loved the one-day trip to Gobustan (mud volcanoes, cave drawings, Yanardag, etc.) Bolt was very cheap, so I used it to get around.

Baku, Solo travel

I went to Baku alone from Tbilisi (my first solo trip) and I really enjoyed it. Overall, I felt quite safe - I was followed by a few child pickpockets on the promenade, but this phenomenon is common in many cities. A large part of Baku reminds me of Europe, with a slightly oriental touch, and everything is easy to explore on foot (I walked around on my own and it was fine). I recommend using Uber or Bolt in Baku, as taxi drivers there try to cheat people.

Baku

I think Baku overall is a safe place for tourists. But as a woman, I believe we should think of being cautious wherever we are so more cautious, more safe. Baku is my hometown (I lived there more than 20 years), I haven't came across with any danger. Besides that, Baku is a place worth visiting at least once. There are lots of historically important places, entertainment, good restaurants, lively bars, and nice people. Definitely recommend visiting!

Baku

Baku is safer than most of the cities I believe. You will not be robbed or attacked by anybody for most of the cases. Of course, as a traveler, you should be careful, especially, at night or walking around the places can be dangerous, out of the city center, but generally, I think for tourists, Baku is pretty safe and a nice place to visit. Our people are very hospitable and you are always very welcomed.

It is absolutely safe. You can visit Haydar Aliyev Sarayi, the Xalca Museum, and walk along Nizami Street. If you would like to see places outside of Baku, I would definitely advise you to go to Gabala, Guba, Sheki, and, of course, my favorite place, Ismayilli.
