Agreed pickup waiting and normal comfort stops are included in the confirmed fare.
Photo and sightseeing stops on the direct Baku–Shahdag route are free. An extra destination away from the route is agreed separately.
1. Choose the correct starting point
For a city pickup, send the full hotel or apartment address rather than only “Baku”. For a flight arrival, give Heydar Aliyev International Airport, the flight number and the local arrival date. If the flight crosses midnight, check the date on your itinerary. These details identify the right journey before a price is agreed.
2. Name the destination hotel
Write the exact hotel name, such as Pik Palace or Park Chalet, or send the address of your accommodation. “Shahdag” alone does not specify a door-to-door drop-off. Keep your hotel confirmation available so you can check the name and location; you do not need to send passport or payment details.
3. Check passengers and luggage together
List adults, children, suitcases, a stroller and ski equipment in the same message. State any child-seat requirement and ask for availability. Compare vehicle space before comparing fares: a quoted car is useful only if everyone and their luggage fit. Tell the driver about unusually large bags rather than counting them as ordinary suitcases.
4. Decide the return arrangement
Choose one way, a same-day return, or a return on a different date. For a day trip, discuss the time you want at the resort and the return pickup. For a flight home, send the departure details so the road journey and airport allowance can be planned. Driving-time estimates are not guaranteed arrival times.
