The UK Government have also provided a guide to deal with criminal activities in Baku.“Crime levels in Baku are generally low,” it reads. “But muggings do occur from time to time after dark in the centre of town around the western bars and clubs and near dimly lit entrances of private apartments.“Take sensible precautions: be vigilant, avoid carrying large sums of money and dont walk alone at night.“Try to arrange to be picked up or dropped off as close to your hotel or apartment entrance as possible by a private/company driver, or a known taxi firm.
