If you would like to know about general transportation around the

Getting Around.
From Airport
St. Petersburg has one airport with two terminals
(international and domestic) that are far apart. The domestic
Airport is called Pulkovo I and the international airport is
called Pulkovo II. They are located about 30 kilometers
South of the City's Center. Driving times by car can vary from
20 minutes to 2 hours depending on traffic.

| Taxi at
airport |
There are many taxies at the airport.
They generally quote between 35 - 70 euros for a ride to the
Center. They are very aggressive and will not speak
English. They are often called "mafia taxi" because
they can get away with their high prices because they chase
competition away. |

|
| Marshrutka |
There is a mini-van stand outside the
airport that will take you to nearest Metro station (Moskovksaya)
for 15 rubles or all the way to the Moscow Railway station
on Nevsky Prospect in the Center for 25 rubles. If you
are comfortable you know your way around St. Petersburg, and
aren't carrying too much luggage, this is a very economical
way to travel. You will likely be charged for an
additional person if your luggage takes up a seat. |

|
| Public bus |
Busses will take you to the nearest metro
station for 10 rubles. I advise paying a little extra
and taking a much more comfortable Marshrutka.
