We will tell you how you can get to Crimea in 2021 by bus from Moscow, Anapa, Krasnodar and Ukraine. How do the buses go? Prices, schedules, routes.


The bus is perhaps the most accessible form of transport for tourists who have gathered in Crimea: plane tickets are often very expensive (if you do not fly from Moscow), and seats on the train are sold out at an unprecedented rate. Buses run to Crimea mainly from Moscow and cities in southern Russia (Krasnodar, Rostov-on-Don, Anapa, and so on), so it makes sense to go to Crimea by bus only from cities in southern Russia.

You can fly from Moscow for the same money (and sometimes even cheaper) by plane - it will leave much faster and more conveniently. As for other cities in Russia, the easiest way for their residents is either to fly, or first get to Krasnodar, Anapa or Simferopol by train, and from there go by bus (you can use a "single ticket").

Bus Moscow - Crimea

The bus from Moscow to Crimea makes stops in Voronezh, Krasnodar, Rostov-on-Don, Timashevsk, Slavyansk-on-Kuban, Temryuk, the port of Kavkaz, Kerch, Feodosia, etc., that is, theoretically there is a possibility that someone something will do and there will be free seats - you can get on a bus in one of these cities.

The cost of a bus ticket Moscow - Crimea (Simferopol) is from 2.5 to 3.5 thousand rubles one way, depending on the type of bus. Plus luggage is paid separately.

Buses to Crimea leave from Moscow from Novoyasenevskaya and Krasnogvardeyskaya bus stations and follow to Simferopol, Sevastopol and Evpatoria. By the way, there is also a bus from Shuya to Yalta via Moscow (Novoyasenevskaya). The schedule of buses to Crimea can be found on the service "Yandex. Schedules", but it is better to call the bus station.

In my opinion, the cheapest, fastest and most comfortable way to get from Moscow to Crimea in 2021 is to fly by plane, especially since many airlines set favorable fares. You can often find cheap round-trip flights from Aeroflot, S7 and other airlines, so it makes sense to look for tickets on the search engines Aviasales and Skyscanner - what if there will be a sale on the dates you need or just a good deal from some airline?

How to book a hotel in Crimea? You can find a convenient accommodation option for yourself on the most popular service Hotellook - there are both hotels and private accommodation. For example, rooms in guest houses cost from 850 rubles. An overview of prices for private housing in Crimea, read here.

Bus Krasnodar - Crimea

There are many buses from Krasnodar to Crimea: they follow to Yalta, Simferopol, Sevastopol, Bakhchisarai and Evpatoria. Buses depart from the South or Central Bus Station. The price of a ticket to Simferopol is from 1100 rubles to 1350 rubles + baggage allowance (from 30 to 140 rubles).

The schedule of buses from various cities of the Krasnodar Territory (Rostov-on-Don, Krymsk, Sochi, Novorossiysk, Gelendzhik, etc.) to the Crimea can be found here or on the service "Yandex. Schedules", but the safest way is to call the information bus station.

Be careful: tickets are sold at the box office only upon presentation of an identity document.

Bus Anapa - Crimea

Getting from Anapa to Crimea by bus is as easy as from Krasnodar: a lot of transit buses pass through Anapa and pick up passengers. The cost of a ticket to Simferopol is on average from 800 to 1000 rubles (+ luggage separately). The ticket price depends on the type of bus.

You can view the schedule on the sites listed above, or by calling the bus station, but it is even easier to do this using an electronic machine that is in the waiting room at the Anapa bus station. In the high season, about 11 buses a day go to Crimea, in the low season, respectively, less.

Bus Ukraine - Crimea

Communication between Crimea and Ukraine is extremely unstable. Officially, from December 26, 2014, the bus service between Ukraine and Crimea was terminated, but in fact, the buses still ply illegally. The communication was carried out intermittently: from time to time the border guards did not allow buses from Crimea to pass and turned them back. As of February 10, 2015, this restriction has been removed: buses from Crimea run regularly and cross the border freely. From Simferopol, you can go by bus to Odessa, Kherson, Nikolaev and other cities.

But to leave for Crimea by bus from Ukraine is more difficult. Usually the route is as follows: buses with signs "Nikolaev / Odessa - Novoalekseevka" go to Chongar, drop off passengers at the border, and on the Crimean side another bus is waiting for passengers to Yalta, Simferopol and Dzhankoy. You can get back in the same way.
