About the Kropyvnytskyi – Krakow route
The Kropyvnytskyi–Krakow bus covers about 1140 km and 17–25 hours from central Ukraine to the capital of Lesser Poland. Krakow draws students, service and construction workers and tourists, so people use this route for study, work and visiting relatives. There is no direct train, so the bus is the main option without arranging connections yourself; that said, more than half of trips include a change, already built into the itinerary. Boarding in Kropyvnytskyi is at the bus station at 1 Oleksandriiske highway or at the stop by a shop at 2A Telnova street, in the old bus station area near the arboretum. Trips cross the border at Krakivets – Korczowa or Yahodyn – Dorohusk. In Krakow the drop-off is at the bus station at 18 Bosacka street or at John Paul II Airport — handy if a flight follows.
