Choosing your journey

Find the correct departure station
FlixBus lists Varna Bus Station at Vladislav Varnenchik 158 and Burgas South as the arrival. Check the ticket’s address; the Varna railway station is a different place.
Allow more than the advertised minimum
The operator describes a minimum journey of two hours. Choose the actual departure and fare, then add travel to the station and from the arrival stop. Summer traffic and intermediate stops can change the time available that afternoon.
Keep the onward plan practical
If Burgas is your base, leave bags before heading to the waterfront. If continuing to Nessebar, check the separate service and its Old Town or New Town stop. A through coastal route is not the same as an unlimited local ticket.
Plan the arrival
Continue with the Burgas guide when choosing a base and local visits. Add this journey separately to your daily spending plan. The distance above compares the city centres in a straight line; the route you travel can be longer.
