About the Kyiv – Sunny Beach route
The Kyiv – Sunny Beach bus takes you straight to Slanchev Bryag, Bulgaria's flagship Black Sea resort. The route runs through western Ukraine and a Moldova–Romania transit leg to the Bulgarian border, so a valid biometric international passport is required. Sunny Beach is the country's most popular summer destination: the season runs May to September, and the nearest airport is Burgas. It draws families with kids as well as younger travellers after the nightlife and the wide sandy strip. Be honest — this is a long-haul route: the journey is lengthy and the ticket price is higher than domestic trips, the fair cost of a direct transfer with no changes. Tickets booked on the site are paid by card online in hryvnia (UAH), with no hidden fees. Check the current schedule, free seats and prices right here before you book.
