Tell me how to get from Kyiv / Zhitomir to St. Petersburg in the most budgetary way for five tourists on their own.

russia › Saint Petersburg

There are plans to make an independent trip to St. Petersburg by a company of 5 people. 10 days. From our city there is a direct train to St. Petersburg, but the fare is completely sky-high. Tell me the options for traveling from Kyiv / Zhytomyr to St. Petersburg by trains, buses with ticket prices. Is it possible to save on travel, how many transfers will need to be done? Are there any budget itineraries?

Answer

Have you looked at the plane?
I used to travel to Moscow by train, but now the train costs some unrealistic money, so I traveled by plane in April - it turned out cheaper, MAU there, Transaero back. And I bought separate tickets there and back. See both options - one round trip ticket, or separate tickets, may be cheaper. Well, there is a bus from Kyiv to St. Petersburg, I saw it on the street near the railway station. Look on the Internet.

For five, definitely by car.
Yes, and in St. Petersburg itself, the car will come in handy, we have a lot of cars with Ukrainian numbers, no one breaks the glass and does not pierce the wheels))) On the contrary, just the day before yesterday I helped the guys from Ukraine to take two wheels to the nearest tire service.

I don’t have a car, in view of the complete uselessness of one for me (absolutely not a car enthusiast), therefore I can’t use the advice to travel by car. Direct buses, trains and planes are known to me. I asked about the budget route by trains and buses with transfers to minimize travel costs.

Ah, well, then the question should be formulated in a different way - how to get to St. Petersburg for 3 kopecks :) I think you need to stupidly go to Gomel (does the train run?) There are local buses further)) you will get there in 5 days)))

Would you like to see the finished tour? In Kyiv there is TO "Chocolate", the main specialization is Leningrad, the prices are very reasonable. For example, a tour with travel, accommodation and 6 excursions - from $ 120 per person, the dollar is still 23.

There are minibuses http://ecolines.ua/ru/predlozhenija/363-kiev-spb — 1350 UAH
and buses http://busfor.ua/ (on July 25, there was an option with a transfer for 937 UAH.)
A car, even four of us, will not be cheaper.

The car disappears, because the author immediately dismissed this option.
In general, a bus can, of course, be cheaper, but on the spot a lot will be spent on transport, metro, buses, trams, trolleybuses ... If you actively wander around St. Petersburg, then a lot of money will go away.

Thanks for the answers. I already went with "Chocolate" last year. We thought to go with them and then "get lost", stay for another 5-6 days, but last time they scared me with some fines if you did not return in their bus - interesting are they fooling our brother or is it just chatter?

On the 25th - 05th I'm going to St. Petersburg by car and Moscow. Haven't decided yet. As soon as I wake up after Greece, I will go. I can take it with me. Semilocal vein. I smoke. On the road, I listen to Accept at maximum volume.
You can stay with me for a couple of nights. Pay with travel stories.
If interested - write.
