Can Tourists Travel Directly From Armenia to Azerbaijan?
Do not plan a direct Armenia–Azerbaijan land crossing. Current official travel advice says entry into Azerbaijan over the land border from Armenia is not possible.
SHORT ANSWER
Not directly by land. Plan the two countries as separate travel legs.
For ordinary tourist planning, you cannot simply drive or take public transport across the Armenia–Azerbaijan border. Current German official travel advice explicitly says entry into Azerbaijan over the land border from Armenia is not possible.
