Bucharest Airport Transfers

Bucharest is a dynamic and fun city. In the Romanian capital, you will find modern architecture mixed with communist buildings, as well as, beautiful orthodox churches that date back to the 17th and 18th century.

The Old Town is the best place to explore Bucharest's history and have lunch at the local restaurants. The Triumphant Arch and the Romanian Athenaeum are one of the main attractions you can't miss, as well as, the imposing Palace of Parliament, which was the masterpiece in Nicolae Ceausescu's urban plan. We suggest visiting the National History Museum, the National Village Museum and the National Art Museum.

Getting around the city

The public transport in Bucharest is accessible and cheap. It is part of the locals' everyday life. The buses, trolleybuses and trams cover almost every part of the city, and they run daily from 04:30 to 23:00. After that, night buses take over which depart from Piata Unirii. These three types of transportation have a unified ticketing system.

The metro is a fast way to get around the city. There are four metro lines which serve the city, and you can buy tickets at the metro stations. Tourists can use the M2 line, which runs from north to south (Pipera to Berceni). The M1 and M3 lines serve Gara de Nord and residential areas. Taking a taxi in Bucharest is a fast way to reach your destination.

Bucharest Henri Coanda International or known as Otopeni Airport is the central hub for arriving in the capital. It's 16 km north of Bucharest city centre. The other one serving this area is the Aurel Vlaicu Airport, which was transformed into a business airport and doesn't handle passenger traffic since 2012.

How to organise Bucharest airport transfer?

Bucharest Otopeni is well-connected to the city via public transport, airport taxi and private airport transfer. Two express buses are running from the airport. Express route 780 connects Otopeni to the Gara de Nord, while Express route 783 runs 24/7 and will take you to the city centre. The train station is 900 m from Bucharest Otopeni, and a shuttle bus will take you there. The train runs directly from Bucharest Otopeni station to Gare du Nord.

Since there were many scams by taxi drivers at Bucharest Otopeni, there were some changes introduced, and you can order an airport taxi on a touch screen in the Arrivals area. However, it can get crowded in front of the taxi order screen, so it might be wiser for you to arrange a private transfer in advance.

Bucharest Baneasa Airport is 8 km from the city centre, and you can access it by buses 131 and 135, the Express Route 783, tramway No. 5 and a taxi.
