Sochi is an all-year-round tourist destination with a great variety of activities and places of interest, located in the very south of Russia, on the northeast coast of the Black Sea, a 3.5-hour flight from Moscow.
From July 15th, Russia lifts the restrictions on crossing its land borders established in connection with the pandemic. Foreign tourists once again have the opportunity to enter our country, and Russian tourists, respectively, to travel abroad by car, bus or train. The opening of land borders will make travelling to Russia cheaper. It opens a path through Finland, Estonia and Latvia which can be reached across Europe on low-cost flights, and from there on regular bus lines Lux Express and Ecolines to St. Petersburg and Moscow. Due to a limited number of direct flights to Russia on most international destinations, the lifting of restrictions will be an important factor for both Russian tourists and foreign tourists considering travelling to Russia.
Please note that at the same time, the requirement to present a negative PCR test when entering Russia (except for citizens of Belarus) remains.
