Bucharest to Ruse


Depends what time you arrive in Bucharest.?I do this journey about 3 times a year,so from Otopeni or Baneasa you get the 783 airport bus,which will take you down the main road to its final stop on Unirii square.When you get off the final stop,on your right you will see an Irish pub.Walk past this to the corner of the building and youll see the "Hotel Horoscope"(check "street view"on the google map and youll see it).About 20 metres from here is a parking area,where you can share a taxi down to Ruse,It will cost about 15 euros and takes 1 hour maximum.Its not very well signposted so youll have to look for a taxi,taking in tourists with suitcases etc.(between 10.00am and 10.30 am or 14.00pm and 14.30 pm)- 2 a day. 
This is one of the weakest forms of Transsport in Bucharest,because there is not many public buses between the 2 cities(something the council are hoping to change).You could do the train journey,but it takes twice as long and costs just as much.The taxi,however,takes you to the train/bus station at Ruse,so from there,cross the road and go in and buy a bus ticket for VT.
Just got this from another website, just for info for readers.
