Travel by private car

A trip by car is another option for traveling along the route "Nizhny Novgorod - Samara". The distance by car along the road is about 720 km, which is not so much. By the time it will take about 12 hours. It is quite possible to do such a route in one day.

Aircraft

Samara Airport (Kurumoch) is located 42 km from the city itself, and Nizhny Novgorod Airport (Strigino) is 16 km away.

The famous company "UTair" is engaged in transportation of passengers. Aircraft from city to city fly daily at the same time, which allows us to talk about the total cost of all tickets.

Departure from Samara occurs at 15:55, and after an hour and a half - at 16:25 - passengers land in Nizhny Novgorod. In the opposite direction, the departure is at 12:25, and the landing at 15:02. Thus, it turns out that the flight from Nizhny Novgorod takes 10 minutes more.

Counting your time and costs, consider that after landing at the airport you will need to get to the city itself. Fortunately, it is not difficult to do this: there are regular buses and minibuses, but there is no difficulty in finding a taxi.

Prices for travel

The cheapest transport option is a bus. The ticket will cost about 1000 rubles, which is quite cheap. Just remember that all the hardships of moving in a sitting position at night will not disappear even in the most comfortable bus.

If we talk about the train, the ticket price depends on the type of place. So, you can buy a seat for about 1000 rubles, a reserved seat - for 1600, a coupe - for 2549, and luxury - for 5400.

The cost of traveling by car varies between 1,740 rubles, so if there are more than two people in the car, this option can already compete with the bus for economy.

Due to the fact that only one company carries out flights between cities, you can name the exact cost per ticket. Prices start from 5215 rubles. Only in June and August they rise - in these months the cost is from 5715 rubles. But do not forget about the cost of the trip from the airport to the city

Opinions of travelers

As residents of both cities believe, the best option is a train journey. But on the bus it is better not to go, because this type of transport is often chosen by not very adequate persons. Sitting on the train, too, very few people dare travel. But in a compartment and a reserved seat the coach is usually traveled with pleasure.

Air travel is quite in demand, but because of the cost, few choose them. But traveling by car is a frequent option, but not everyone has such an opportunity.

Residents of cities also note that there is another way to make the way "Nizhny Novgorod - Samara". The distance can be traveled along the river. Unfortunately, for today all the ships that ply between these cities are tourist, there are no more flights. Most likely, this is due to the fact that very few people used sea transport.
