Instructions
Step 1
The fastest and most comfortable way to get to distant Bishkek is by plane. Fortunately, there are enough flights "Moscow - Bishkek". All Italia, Air France and Aeroflot planes depart from Sheremetyevo Airport along this route, and Kyrgyzstan, Ural Airlines, ATS and Kyrgyz Airlines operate from Domodedovo … The flight time is 4 hours 10 minutes.
Step 2
Those who are afraid to fly by plane can be advised to travel to Bishkek by long-distance train. Three times a week, the Moscow-Bishkek train departs from the Kazansky railway station in the Russian capital. With this option, the road to the capital of Kyrgyzstan will take 76 hours.
Step 3
It is also possible to get to Bishkek by intercity bus. In the first case, the Moscow-Bishkek bus leaves from the square of three stations. And in the second case, a ticket to the capital of Kyrgyzstan can be bought at the Shchelkovo bus station. In both options, the road to Bishkek will take approximately 73 hours.
Step 4
If you go from Moscow to Bishkek by car, then first you need to move along the M-5 Ural highway, bypassing such cities as Bronnitsy, Kolomna, Ryazan, Penza and Samara. After the city of Uralsk and the passage of the Russian-Kazakh border, you need to go along the A-300 highway through Aktobe, Baikonur and Taraz. After the Kazakh-Kyrgyz border, the P-33 highway begins, which will lead to Bishkek. The road will take about 58 hours. But only if there are no accidents, congestion and traffic jams on the highways.
Step 5
However, there is also a second option. To do this, you need to move along the M-7 Volga highway through Cheboksary, Kazan and Ufa. On the territory of Kazakhstan, you should go along the A-310 highway through Kostanay, Astana and Karaganda. And then keep to the M-36 highway, which will lead you to the entrance to Bishkek. Here, however, it should be noted that the road surface in Kazakhstan is somewhat worse than in the first option. Therefore, the journey may take longer.
