Simferopol Travel Forum

Hello,

Myself and 2 friends are planning a trip to Crimea (Sevastopol) for a few days to a week.

We are planning to leave soon and wanted to know the best options (cheapest too) for getting to Sevastopol.

We are traveling from Holland / The Netherlands and currently considering a route via Bucharest. Is there a boat from Romania to Crimea (Sevastopol)? Also, any bus or train lines?

Thanks for any information.

Privjet!
I am an young expat living and working in Simferopol, Crimea.
It's been only two weeks since my arrival in the Crimean capital, so I still do not know local people (or other foreigners), except my colleagues from the office.
So whoever knows somebody who might be interested in meeting me for a coffee, please answer this message.
Thanx!

Hi guys,

Does anyone know how to get the easiest way from the Crimea to Varna, Burgas or any other Black Sea town. (Or in any other nice place in Burgaria, for that matter). I wish to go this way in June, possibly. A direct flight would be great, but what about train or ship? Any help is appreciated.

thanks

Hi! For a brief (about a week) trip to Ukraine in May, which is better to fly into for seeing Crimea and Kiev, Simferopol airport or Kiev airport? Which would be easiest to get to the other, or which should we hit first? Can anyone possibly offer an advice on how easy the train journey is, (I'll have a four yr old with me) or direct me to a transport link that could help further? In your opinion, is a week long enough to see both these areas of the country? Thanks so much for any help!

Has anyone had any experience with the Hotel Valencia. Their web site makes it look a bit more attractive than either Hotel Moscow or Hotel Ukraine.

Any information would be appreciated.

Hi,
we plan to arrive in Simferopol by train from Lviv. To save time on journey back, I wanted to take a plane.
How much does it cost? I heard 50USD?
Do I have to book in advance? I'm in Warsaw/Poland now and so far I've found no travel agent who would sell Ukrainian domestic flights.
Thanks,
Pawel

Hi everyone, please help. I'm getting mixed signals about VISAs for the Ukraine.

I want to travel to Simferopol as a tourist for a view days, via Kiev. Some people say I can only do this with a VISA obtained here in the UK first - I'm British - others say I can get one on my arrival at SImferopol. Yet others say I will not be allowed onto my connecting flight without a VISA - so does anyone outthere know for sure.

I'll be very grateful for any and all help. Thank you.

The last time I visited Yalta, I flew into Simferopol and took a taxi to Yalta. This was in 2000 and the cost was about 60.00 USD. Are the cost about the same today?

I am from the State of Oregon and have found Yalta to be a very fasinating place. Yes, to the person wanting to learn the language, you can get by with English, but it helps to know a little Russian. Yalta, has been occupied off an on by Russia for many years. The people are wonderful and friendly. Enjoy.
