The city of Saint Petersburg has well-developed transportation links to other Russian cities and large cities all over the world.

If you arrive by train:
There are several large railway stations ("vokzals") in Saint Petersburg. Trains from Moscow and other cities to the south and south-east of Saint Petersburg arrive at the Moskovskiy vokzal, linked to the metro station Ploshchad' Vosstaniya. Most trains from the west and south-west (including West-European countries) arrive at the Vitebskiy vokzal (metro station Pushkinskaya). Trains from the east and nord-east, as well as transit trains Helsinki—Moscow, arrive at the Ladozhskiy vokzal (metro station Ladozhskaya). Trains Helsinki — Saint Petersburg arrive at the Finlyandskiy vokzal (metro station Ploshchad' Lenina). Baltiyskiy vokzal (metro station Baltiyskaya) serves only regional trains.

See the metro scheme and maps below.

If you arrive by plane:
Passenger flights to Saint Petersburg arrive at the Pulkovo international airport, located ca. 15 km south of Saint Petersburg. From the airport, one can reach the Moskovskaya metro station by bus No. 39. You will have to pay 50 roubles inside the car (depending on the route and your luggage). Alternatively, you can use an ordinary taxi (a cab). In the latter case, it is strongly recommended to order it upon arrival only at the official "Taxi Pulkovo" counters located in the arrival hall of the terminal (it should cost typically 1–2 thousand roubles) or at the official site Taxi Pulkovo. Uber also operates in St. Petersburg. If you prefer to take an Uber taxi the cost should be 500 — 1000 rubles, depending on the location of your hotel.

More detailed information can be found at the Pulkovo airport Web site.

Payment for carrying large-size luggage is 55 rubles as well. In order to pass to the metro station you can buy a token or a multi-usage travel card (the Standard Electronic Ticket "Podorozhnik"; it costs 60 rubles, but the fare rate is ∼30% lower).
