Why you’ll be here
Buses to Sofia leave through the day (roughly 3 hours, around €10), and the international coach to Bucharest stops here too — departing around 00:30 at night from in front of the main entrance, not from a platform inside.
Good to know
- No night buses to Sofia. First departure is around 05:45, last around 19:00 — plan flights accordingly.
- The last bus arriving from Sofia (~22:00 departure) is the Bucharest coach passing through, reaching Pleven around midnight.
- Bring cash for tickets bought at the counter, and your passport/residence card for international routes.
