Hello, dear community! I’m working on a bicycle travel route. Planning to go from Russia to Georgia and then to Azerbaijan. I really want to visit Ganja. And then continue via the Caspian to Kazakhstan... Question: will I be able to cross the Georgia–Azerbaijan border by bicycle? I know that back in 2025 it was still closed since the pandemic. But maybe there are options, for example, to load up with a truck driver and cross the border that way... Maybe there are some other options?

Hello, is it true that it’s impossible to order a taxi via Yango from the airport? I heard that Yango taxis are not allowed to come to the airport 😃
