Moscow Airport (DME) to City Center

Hi,

I would like to ask is there any bus or cheap taxi from Domodedovo Airport to Kitay-Gorod area? I tried to googling it but almost every sites suggest to take a train, the thing is it almost impossible to me to take the train since I will carry like 4-5 big luggage and I tried to search for cheap taxi but the price is so expensive.

Grateful if you could provide me information about any cheap taxi or accommodation form the airport to Kitay-Gorod area.

Thank you.

Alas, with bulky luggage taxi is the only option. And yes, it's expensive.

How do you define expensive? 1500 to 2000 rub is a fairly average price for a taxi service from DME to Moscow and if you book a return serviced at the same time you can get a discount.

I don't know how much time you have and how badly you need to save money but an option would be to make several journeys. Take a mini van from outside DME to the metro Stn. Domodedovo then to Kitay Gorod.

Mini van is around 100-150 rub, i believe.
Metro 28 rub
Leaving a bag at airport left luggage was about 120 rub. per piece per day last time i did it.

Baggage storage at the airport is more like 300 rub. As for a shuttle bus I have no idea what the cost would be, but I suspect it would be more than has been suggested

Last time I used baggage storage (last NY), it was 120 RUB/day. Minivan (marshrutka) from airport to metro this September was also 120 RUB.

Anyway, with bulky luggage using all that can be problematic.

There are no cheap taxis. Prices from the airport are pretty much controlled by the airport mafia.
