How much does it cost to go to Crimea for May holidays

Many Crimea lovers are considering whether to go to Crimea for the May holidays. In Crimea, excellent weather, space, sea, sun, air. Much better than sitting in the stuffy and dusty Moscow. Here we decided to calculate how much a trip to the Crimea from Moscow would cost for a family of three. We examined the extended May, practice shows that we are not enough weeks.

Option 1. We go to the Crimea by car

If you have your own car, you can ride it. Having a car, in Crimea you can see much more than traveling by public transport or by taxi. You can go to two seas, jerk through the Swallow's Nest to Chersonesos or just where your eyes look. The road to Crimea is not bad, especially the section passing along the M4.

By car from Moscow to Koktebel you need to travel 1648 kilometers. If we consider the average price of gasoline at 42 rubles, and the fuel consumption is 8 liters per 100 kilometers, then one way will cost 42 rubles per liter for gasoline. × 132 l. = 5544 rub. Add here the return road and mileage in the Crimea, you can lay 14,000 rubles on fuel.

The bridge has not yet been opened, you will have to pay for the ferry in the region of 2080 rubles. Multiply by 2, it turns out 4160 rubles.

If you do not drive, you will have to spend the night on the road. There are many hotels now, you can spend the night for 1,500 rudders per day. Total 3,000 rubles there and back.

Do not forget that the M4 is a toll road. One way will have to leave 1280 rubles on paid sites, 2560 on both sides.

Plus, you’ll have to eat on the road, if you lay 500 rubles from your nose for food, which is close to a minimum, then we’ll drive and drink another 3000 rubles on the road.

Total, the cost of three for the road to the Crimea and back by car will be approximately 26,720 rubles.

Option 2. We fly by plane

Unfortunately, tickets for the May holidays are very expensive. Demand allows airlines to set higher tariffs. If you choose the interval before May or immediately after them, it will be cheaper. We are attached to the work schedule and the school schedule. A few days we threw.

The cheapest flights to Simferopol, which we managed to find with a flight there on April 28 and May 11 back, cost three 41,493 rubles. We were looking for tickets with luggage, as we were traveling for almost two weeks. Here, add the fare from the house to the airport and a transfer from Simferopol to the vacation spot.

Tickets for Aeroexpress, if you buy through the site, will cost one 420 rubles. For three round trip you get 2520 rubles, you will give about the same amount in Crimea for a taxi from the airport to Koktebel, you may have to bargain.

So, 2000 rubles one way and 2000 rubles the other - 4000 rubles by taxi.

In total, the flight and travel from the house to the Moscow airport and from Simferopol airport to the vacation destination will cost a total of 48,013 rubles.

How much do hotels in Crimea cost in May?

For simplicity, we will take a rest time in Crimea for 12 days and 11 nights. We will lead a relatively economical lifestyle, eat in the canteens, travel by public transport, observe the flowers and the sea.

A room with good grades at a booking costs 9900 rubles.

In Yalta, the options are more expensive - 15 900 rubles.

If you really want to go to Yalta and need to save money, you can live in a hostel in a shared room for 4850 rubles, but this is somehow completely extreme. This option does not suit us.

Alushta - 6600 rubles for 11 nights.

Prices from above in the Crimea are not limited. You can take housing for 24,200 rubles, you can even more expensive.

We assume that on May holidays living in a simple room for three will cost 1000 rubles per day. Total, we lay 11,000 rubles for hotels.

How much is food

In Crimea, budget canteens are very developed. You can eat there for 150-250 rubles per person. In principle, you can eat 500 rubles per day per person. We multiply by 12 days and by three people, it turns out 18,000 rubles for food.

You can save if you buy products in the store and cook yourself. Prices from the catalog of the Crimean supermarket Pud catalog:

In general, someone will spend more, someone less, someone will drink one thousand for 10 thousand. We will modestly consider the cost of food at 18,000 rubles. If you don’t have enough, throw in advance.

Excursions and other expenses

Here you are not limited by anything, you won’t be able to do without additional expenses, we will lay 10,000 rubles on boats, donkeys and ATVs for three for tickets to museums and zoos. Not flaunting, but not limited only to walks in the surroundings.

Total

If you go by car, the cost of a trip to the Crimea on May from April 28 to May 11 for a family of three will be: 26720 + 11000 + 18000 + 10000 = 65720 rubles.

If you fly by plane, it will come out faster, but more expensive and less mobile:

48013 + 11000 + 18000 +10000 = 87013 rubles.

Is it expensive or cheap, to go, fly or sit at home, everyone decides for himself. How do you like the prices?

P.S. There is another option to go to Crimea by train. In my opinion, this is for masochists.
