The sprawling Iraqi capital of Baghdad is situated 27.3 km from Baghdad Airport. Steeped in history and rich in culture, the city is renowned for its sacred sites, including the Shrine of the Two Immams, and cultural attractions, such as the Iraqi National Museum.
Unless you’re renting your own vehicle, one transport option is available from Baghdad Airport to the city centre, which is a taxi from the line or a private transfer. Taking a taxi or private transfer is a quick and convenient option. The journey takes 25 minutes and costs, on average, around €45 (IQD 63,430), though prices can vary, and fares must be agreed upon in advance with the driver.
Welcome Pickups offers meet and greet services and a friendly introduction to Baghdad at the same price as a regular taxi. Click here to see the cost.
