Transfer from Varna Airport: Golden Sands, the centre, St. Constantine

Car and suitcases outside an airport terminal for a prearranged transfer

Varna Airport (VAR) is the gateway to Bulgaria's northern coast: from here people head into the city itself, to Golden Sands and to St. Constantine and Helena. It's only 10 km from the centre, so the ride is short β€” the main thing is to decide in advance how you'll get there.

Where to and how long

A guide to distance and travel time:

  • Varna centre β€” ~10 km, 15–20 minutes.
  • St. Constantine and Helena β€” ~20 km, about 25 minutes.
  • Golden Sands β€” ~28 km, 30–40 minutes.
  • Sunny Beach and Nessebar β€” ~90 km, about 1.5 hours (if you're staying in the south but flying into Varna).

At night and in peak season the trip costs more; the taxi rank at the airport is the most expensive option.

Book ahead or hail on the spot

A car with a driver booked in advance meets you with a name sign in arrivals, tracks your flight and charges a fixed price β€” no hunting for cash or explaining the address. Especially handy with kids and luggage: child seat and minivan on request.
