Travel and Transportation
Getting to Vladimir
A number of major airlines, including Aeroflot International, Delta, and
all the major European international airlines, can get you to Moscow. Flight
schedules and current prices are available from any of the internet travel
services or your local travel agency.
Once in Moscow you can travel to Vladimir by train, bus, or car. This can
take between 2 and 2-1/2 hours (by train), or 3 to 5 hours by bus or car
(depending on traffic). The most convenient way to get there is to arrange
for a car or bus (depending on how many people you are traveling with) to
meet you at the airport or your Moscow hotel. A car and driver sent from
Vladimir should cost no more than $150 for the one-way trip. The trains
and busses are much less expensive, but you have to get from the airport
or your hotel to the train or bus station. Be aware that airport taxis in
Moscow can cost as much as a car and driver that will safely take you all
the way to Vladimir. Ask a Vladimir travel agency for help.
