Nasiriyah is accessible by road from major Iraqi cities. There's no civilian airport, so international travelers fly into Baghdad (BGW) or Basra (BSR) and continue by car (4-5 hours from Baghdad, 2-3 hours from Basra). Within the city, regular and shared taxis are the most common transportation. It's advisable to agree on fares before starting journeys. The optimal time to visit is during milder months from October to April, when temperatures range between 15-25°C, ideal for exploring archaeological sites and taking marsh tours. Summer months should be avoided as temperatures can exceed 45°C. For more: Nasiriyah
