Get in+

Buses from Baku to Ismailli depart from the large and confusing Baku International Bus Terminal. On the third floor of the bus terminal, tickets to Ismailli are sold at ticket window 15. If tickets are sold out for the regular bus to Ismailli, marshrutkas (minivans) outside the ticket hall periodically depart for the 2½ hr ride when all seats are full. These will drop you off at the Central Bazar (Mərkəzi bazar) in the middle of İsmayıllı, where a cluster of taxis will be waiting for you.
