To buy Ukraine train tickets.
|
There are a few options for you to buy Ukraine train tickets.
1.It is not a problem to buy train tickets during off seasons. You can do it at the railway station or a ticket office around the city a few days before you trip.
2.If you are planning to visit popular tourist destinations during the period of time when everyone else wants to do the same, it is better to book the tickets up to 45 days in advance.
In both cases the tickets will be booked through the computerized order system "Express-2". They are available at any Ukraine railway station or a ticket office. But there is a problem here. The computerized order system "Express-2" is not integrated into the Western European booking systems. Therefore train tickets in Ukraine can be booked inside the country only.
Nevertheless situation is not hopeless. You still have an opportunity to have your tickets booked in advance. There are a few Ukrainian travel agencies which can either arrange for you to collect tickets when you arrive in Ukraine or deliver them by DHL to your home. I recommend you to use service of the reputable agency "Unipress". They will deliver your train tickets within 4 business days.
