When you need to get from one Russian city to another, there are few options. For example, for the Nizhny Novgorod-Yaroslavl route, you can buy a train or bus ticket. Despite the fact that you will have to take half a day on the road, there is no opportunity to use the plane. However, in this article we will consider all the existing options for such a trip.

By railroad

Train is not only the most comfortable way to get from one city to another, but also the fastest. In total, you will spend about 9 hours on the road. At the same time, a train ticket from Yaroslavl to Nizhny Novgorod will cost about 900 rubles. Of course, it all depends on the type of travel document. The coupe will cost the passenger approximately 2,000 rubles.

If for some reason you did not get on the direct train, there are several more options. For example, from Tolyatti to St. Petersburg there is a train that stops in two cities we need. And there are actually several such options: trains from Ufa, Samara, Orenburg to St. Petersburg also stop in Nizhny Novgorod and Yaroslavl. At the same time, the cost of tickets varies from 900 to 2000 Russianrubles.

Not looking for easy ways

If for some reason there are no more tickets left, and you really need to get from Nizhny Novgorod to Yaroslavl in the near future, you can get on the chaise. This option is not so cheap: in general, you will pay from 1400 to 2700 rubles. But oddly enough, it is faster: you will spend about 8 hours on the road.

You will need to get to Moscow by train. The train departs from the main railway station every four hours and the journey time is 1 hour 33 minutes. For the first part of the trip you will pay from 650 to 1300 rubles.

Further in Moscow you will take a train to Yaroslavl. It departs from the city's main railway station 3 times a day. On the way you will spend 5 hours 24 minutes, paying from 700 to 1400 rubles. At the same time, the minimum price for a coupe is 950 rubles.

How to get there by car?

If you have your own car, congratulations: the most comfortable travel option is available to you. For the direction Yaroslavl-Nizhny Novgorod, the distance is only 360 kilometers.

If you drive at an average speed, then after 6 hours you will overcome the entire journey. The best option is to drive along the P152 highway. Perhaps this is not the most comfortable solution, as the condition of the coating leaves much to be desired.

So you can spend half an hour more, but save car tires. You need to move along the Volga highway, then turn ontohighway E22, and then take the M7. The total distance will be 455 kilometers.

The cost of the trip will be from 1300 to 2000 rubles. Naturally, if you take a detour route, you will have to spend more on gas, but your car will last longer.

Use someone else's car

If you don't have your own car yet, you can use someone else's. The cost of the trip in this case is very different: you can spend both 600 and 6000 rubles.

If you use the Bla Bla Car service, the trip will cost about 650 rubles. You just get into the car with a person who is already heading to the city you need. To somehow earn extra money on this, the driver asks for a small amount and takes you with him.

Note that in most cases you pay less than for a train or bus ticket. And spend more time on the road.

An option for those for whom money is not the main thing is to take a taxi. It will cost you from 5800 to 7800 rubles. Such services are offered by the companies "Main Taxi" and "Status". This option will be clearly cheaper than renting a car.

Cities by boat

The Nizhny Novgorod-Yaroslavl direction is one of the few that provide the opportunity to travel by water. If the duration of the move does not matter to you, then you can use this option.

You can get from Nizhny Novgorod to Yaroslavl on the ship of different companies. For example, the ship "Mikhail Frunze" will take you to your destination in 4 days. In this case, the cost of moving will be 12,400 rubles (for a two-way trip).

Another option is to use the Nizhny Novgorod motor ship. You will spend the same 4 days on the road, but the cost of the trip will increase. On average, you will fork out 19,100 rubles for a round trip (9,550 rubles for a one-way ticket).

Bus

There are also buses on the Nizhny Novgorod-Yaroslavl route. Admittedly, this is not the most convenient option. You will pay from 1200 to 1500 rubles, and you will spend about 10 hours on the way. And all this time you have to sit.

Good news: buses are now comfortable, with soft seats and air conditioning. Therefore, if for some reason other options are not suitable (or you just sold out all the tickets), you can try to get from one city to another by this mode of transport.

If suddenly all tickets for a direct flight are sold out, you can get to Ivanovo, and from there transfer to a bus to Yaroslavl. The trip to the transfer point will cost 900 rubles, while for the second part of the journey you will have to pay from 350 to 600 rubles. The road to Ivanovo takes about 6 hours, add to this a 2-hour drive from Ivanovo to Yaroslavl. The transfer break will take about an hour.
