Transportation in Kiev

Pubic transit in Kiev does what it was to designed to do, and then some. The impressive, efficient, and inexpensive network of buses, trams, trolley buses, metros and route taxis that can get you most anywhere you need to go in the city. It works well enough, in fact, that passengers can often feel the pinch of its popularity at rush hour...then there's the Cyrillic signage...not to mention the weather...perhaps it's not so surprising after all that expats spend more time reaching for their car keys than bus passes. Of course, overheating in standstill traffic might not be quite the alternative you'd hoped for. On the whole, if you have to traverse the center, it's easiest to do it like a local and go public. Besides, there's something to be said for the experience of it all. The metro was designed primarily to move masses and save time, sure, but its grandeur competes with some of the snazzier sights in town. This video will lead you through the various public transport options available in Kiev, allowing you to use the system from your very first days in your new home.
