About the Krakow – Chernivtsi route
The Krakow to Chernivtsi coach covers roughly 620 kilometres in 11 to 14 hours and mostly carries Bukovyna locals heading home — students on a break, seasonal workers returning to their families, anyone wrapping up a stint in Poland. Departures usually leave from the MDA bus terminal on Bosacka Street or stops near Kraków Główny, then the route runs east through the Lviv region all the way to Chernivtsi, with drop-off at the central bus station on Holovna Street. The border is crossed at Krakovets–Korczowa or Yahodyn–Dorohusk, so keep your passport or ID card within reach.
