    When you arrive there are people on the platform trying to offer you private accomodation.

    If you have to buy tickets. Don't despair trying to find out which window but go straight to the Service Center. How to find it: When you see all the ticket counters to your right in the main hall, go to the end of the corridor and turn left and go to the very end and through the doors.
    The counter when you come in sells tickets within Ukraine and the one in the back to other countries.

    Electric Tram's the most common form of transport
  • Tip Rating:
  • The trams (all driven by women) are held together with pop rivets and wire, I would guess the only kind of maintenace theses things see is when something breaks, never the less a fantastic site to see one of these historical modes of transport still running.

    Catières
  • Tip Rating:
  • A service of catières (maritime shuttles - of French " côtières " ?), existed once : Kataïev borrows them - " the small boat steam accelerated its race... " -, Trotski uses them - " I installed myself on the bridge of steam... " -, Ilf and Petrovs take them. Because of the rise of the price of fuels, it will be necessary, I fear, to satisfy you of these literary evocations. Their working became very uncertain, and the service in is disrupted. The pontoon of craft is on the left side of the maritime station, just after the ship hotel Taras Chevtchenko.

    The gondola ride up the hill...
  • Tip Rating:
  • The gondola ride up the hill near the beach Lanzheron. Odessa is built upon a 30 meter (100 ft) plateau that overlooks the Black Sea, and as such, all Odessites are good climbers (except those who ride this gondola).

    You probably will arrive by...
  • Tip Rating:
  • You probably will arrive by train, bus or plane but after my opinion the only adequate way to approach Odesa, at least for the first time, is by boat!
    When I was there trams and buses were for free (at least I was told that) but this service is not always frequent enough. But there are plenty of cheap and reliable route taxis ('Marshrutka')

    The best way to get to Odesa...
  • Tip Rating:
  • The best way to get to Odesa is either by a higher-class train or by an ariplane.
    The best way to get around is to rent a car. I don't advise to use public transit, because it's overcrowded and has a lot of thieves in it. Especially avoid trolley-buses and streetcars (trams)
