Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 23, 2025
Taxis

The most common and recommended way to travel is by using a ride-hailing app like Yandex Go, which offers fixed pricing. You can also find official and private taxis waiting outside the arrivals hall. The airport is located approximately 25 km from Makhachkala city center, and the journey typically takes 30-40 minutes depending on traffic.

Rental Cars

Major international car rental chains do not have a significant presence at the airport. To rent a car, it is best to pre-book with local Dagestani rental companies online. These companies can arrange to have a vehicle delivered to the airport for your arrival and picked up upon your departure.

Public Transportation

The most economical option is the 'marshrutka' (routed minibus). These minibuses connect the airport with the nearby city of Kaspiysk and then continue to various points in Makhachkala, often terminating at the southern bus station. The service schedule can be infrequent and is often timed with flight arrivals and departures, making it a less reliable option, especially if you have a lot of luggage.
