About the Munich – Lviv route
The Munich to Lviv coach is mostly a journey home: students heading back for the holidays, Ukrainians abroad returning on leave, and families travelling to see relatives in the west of the country. The route covers roughly 1300 kilometres and takes 21 to 25 hours, so departures usually fall in the evening from the central ZOB bus terminal near Hackerbrücke. Through the night the bus rolls across Bavaria, clears the Polish–Ukrainian border, and arrives the following day at Lviv's Stryiskyi bus station or close to the main railway terminal. Because this direction is priced in a foreign currency rather than hryvnia, paying online by card is not available here — you settle the fare in cash directly with the driver when boarding, so keep some small notes handy for the road.
