About the Kyiv – Rome route
The Kyiv – Rome bus carries you from the banks of the Dnipro to the Italian capital: the route runs through western Ukraine, crosses the border near Krakovets, then transits Poland, Czechia or Austria before reaching Piedmont, Tuscany and finally Lazio. This is a long-haul direction — the trip takes around two days and tickets cost noticeably more than domestic routes, so plan your time and budget ahead. Most passengers are Ukrainian workers and caregivers returning to families in Italy, plus travellers heading for the Colosseum, the Vatican and the beaches of Lazio. The drop-off is handy for transfers to Fiumicino (FCO) and Ciampino (CIA) airports. Payment is by reservation with settlement to the driver (online payment is unavailable on this direction).

Frequently asked questions
How long does the Kyiv – Rome bus take?
This is a long-haul direction: the journey usually lasts around two days depending on border traffic and intermediate stops. Allow time for the Ukraine–Poland border crossing and transit through several EU countries. See the exact duration of each departure in the schedule next to the booking button.
How much is a ticket and how do I pay?
This is one of the longest European directions, so tickets cost more than shorter routes — you'll see the exact price in search. Online card payment is not available on this route: you reserve your seat and pay the driver directly for the trip. We recommend booking early — seats on long-haul departures sell out fast.
What documents do I need for the trip?
To cross the border you need a valid biometric international passport. Italy is in the Schengen Area, so carry grounds for entry under visa-free rules or a valid visa/residence permit. Children need their own travel documents. Check your passport's validity before departure.
How do I get from the bus to Rome's airports?
Rome is served by two airports — Fiumicino (FCO, Leonardo da Vinci) and Ciampino (CIA). From the city bus stop you can reach them easily by the Leonardo Express or Trenitalia commuter train from Termini station, or by airport shuttles and buses. Allow extra time for the in-city transfer before your flight.
When is the best time to travel to Rome?
Rome is worth visiting year-round, but in summer the direction is especially popular with tourists and the diaspora — it's peak season, when city sightseeing pairs with the beaches of Lazio and the Tyrrhenian coast. Spring and autumn bring less heat and fewer crowds. For summer dates book early, as seats grow scarce.
How many buses run on the Kyiv – Rome route?
The typical schedule has up to 6 departures a day. The first bus leaves at 06:00, the last at 22:30. Check the search above for departures on a specific date.
