Bucharest without changes
There is no convenient direct rail link between Sofia and Bucharest, and flights are few and expensive. That is why many business clients and families choose a car transfer. With a VIP transfer you leave from your door and arrive at the address in Bucharest or at Otopeni Airport, with breaks whenever you like.
We drive managers and engineers to meetings in Bucharest, travellers flying from Otopeni Airport and families visiting relatives. For companies with regular trips we prepare an individual quote.
Crossing the Danube Bridge
Queues on the bridge are longer on Friday afternoons and Sunday evenings, so for a meeting in Bucharest we advise leaving earlier. If you are flying from Otopeni Airport, tell us your flight time and we will work out when to leave. For groups and company teams we offer a minivan or a van.
From Sofia we drive east on the Hemus motorway and then north to Ruse, or via Lovech and Veliko Tarnovo – the chauffeur chooses based on traffic. We cross the Danube on the Ruse – Giurgiu bridge and continue for about an hour to Bucharest. If you would like a short walk in Ruse or Veliko Tarnovo, we will include it in the plan.
Comfort on a long drive
Trips to neighbouring capitals take several hours, so we plan a break every 2 hours or whenever you like. Child seats are free – tell us the children’s ages when booking. We have sedans for up to 4 passengers, minivans, vans for groups and S- and E-Class cars, so we can also handle a delegation in several cars. We can set off at night if you have an early flight or a morning meeting.
Border and documents
Before the trip, check which document you need for your nationality: an ID card or a passport, and whether a visa is required. At the border the chauffeur knows the procedure and tells you when to have your documents ready. Waiting time at the border depends on the day and the season; on Fridays, Sundays and around holidays we plan extra time. The price is fixed per car when you book and does not change if the border wait is longer.
Business travel in the Balkans
Many companies have offices, clients and plants in neighbouring countries. Instead of a flight with a change, a VIP transfer drops you straight at the meeting, and you can work on the way. For a meeting with a same-day return, or several cities in one trip, we offer a car with a chauffeur for the day in an individual quote. See corporate transportation.
How the transfer works
- Booking. Send us your flight number or address, the hotel, the number of passengers and bags. We confirm the price and the car.
- Before the trip. You receive the chauffeur’s name and phone number.
- Meeting you. The chauffeur waits at arrivals. If your flight is late, the chauffeur sees the new time and waits at no extra cost.
- Arrival. We drop you at reception.
Which car to choose
- Car for up to 4 – a couple or a small family.
- Minivan for up to 6 – a family with children and lots of luggage.

- Mercedes S-Class and E-Class – for VIP guests, business travellers and newlyweds.
- Van – for groups, wedding guests and company events.
