Yalta Getting there & around

Getting there & away

Land

Bus & trolleybus

Trolleybuses to Simferopol leave from beside Yalta main bus station (325 777, 342 092; vul Moskovskaya 8).

Boat

Some international cruise ships now stop here but Yalta’s passenger port (morskoy vokzal; 320 094; vul Ruzvelta 5) is largely underused. In 2007 there was a Yalta–Sinop (Turkey) catamaran in summer. It’s uncertain this will continue, but you can check with Odesa’s English-speaking London Sky Travel (8-0482 729 3196; www.lstrav el.com.ua).
