Arriving in Yevpatoriya by train

Time
The refurbished Railway Station (вокзал) is located in the heart of the city and shares its territory with the bus station. Currency exchange (обмен валют) points and ATMs (банкомат) are nearby. Taxis are always on hand and can take you to most destinations for 20Hr to 40Hr. There are local mini buses (marsrutkas) that pass by and go to several destinations. Tram #1 is probably the shortest street car line in the world going only 3 stops. It does, however connect one to another cross-town tram line and brings one nearly to the sea. Most of train connections operate only in the “high season”, from the beginning of June until the end of September. (The exact dates change each year.)
The exception is the electric train (eletrichka). This runs every few hours to Simferopol and is very inexpensive. The seats are hard and it takes about 3 hours.
In the off season, October to end of May, one would arrive by train in Crimea at the Central Railway Station (центральний вокзал) in Simferopol. From here one can take a taxi to Yevpatoriya for around 150-200Hr. There is a bus station right in front of the railway station. From here there are buses every 15-30 minutes to Yevpatoriya. (In the high season every 5-10 minutes.) Be sure to allow 10-20 minutes or longer buying your ticket at the “kassa”. It can be a real battle in the busy times. Tickets cost about 20Hr. The ride takes about an hour and 15 minutes or longer depending on traffic.
