We were in Minsk in July 2024, we were unlucky with the weather, it was very rainy and cool, we decided to take a ride on the City Bus.
Positive:
- clean comfortable bus
- they talk about the sights, at least you have a general idea where it makes sense to go next and what to watch
- we were escaping from the weather on this bus :-)
Minuses:
- there are only a few flights a day! At 11.00, 13.30, 16.00 and 18.30. We set off at 13:30 from Kirova str., 1
- ONLY cash is accepted for payment
- the price is quite expensive 50 bel.rubles
My recommendations:
If you want to sit comfortably on the top floor of the bus, then take cash in advance and come 30 minutes in advance. before departure, take a queue and places
A good opportunity for a first acquaintance with the city. Convenient location near the train station. Tirelessly, quite comfortable. A 3-hour walking tour of the city costs exactly the same. And here you go and watch and listen. The information may be superficial, but that's enough to get you started. All the main attractions were shown. We recommend it!!
I always use such bus tours in different countries. I also liked everything in Minsk, the tour is for 1.5 hours, and you can immediately see all the iconic places of the city, estimate the distances. But she took off the star for the musical accompaniment. The headphones were turned off and the broadcast was for the whole bus, after an hour I already had a headache from the harsh sounds, probably folk music.
