Un bilan de 27 morts à l'heure actuelle….plus que "l'incident" du Bardo. Bonne chance aux courageux qui s'apprêtent à partir là bas.
C'est la fin du rêve Tunisien ! Le pays plonge dans le terrorisme comme la Libye et les autres … et quand les attentats se feront encore plus fréquents , et ça viendra , eh bien les Tunisiens viendront en Europe chez les copains chrétiens …. comme les autres ! Le tourisme est mort pour ce pays , c'est évident .

37 mort maintenant.

Jetairfly a supprimé tous ses vols vers la Tunisie, et rapatrie tous les vacanciers qui y sont actuellement. Un avion en vol vers la Tunisie a été rappelé et a fait demi-tour.
Following the attacks on hotels in Port el Kantoui in Tunisia, we have decided not to fly to Tunisia anymore. The flight that was on its way is returning to Brussels right now. Another flight that would fly tonight has been canceled. That is also the case for the 4 outbound flights tomorrow. These 6 flights will be used to fly travelers back from Tunisia to Belgium.

le SNAV vient d'annoncer que les clients pour la Tunisie pourront reporter leurs voyages de juillet aout septembre sur une autre destination et/ou sur les 24 mois a venir
Bon voyage et surtout voyagez zen!

MERCI pour les abrutis!!!!
je reviens de tunisie comme pévu, et j'ai passé un excellent séjour avec mon épouse.
d'après ta fiche personnelle tu n'as jamais mis les pieds en tunisie et jamais pu apprécier la qualité de l'accueil , la générosité et la gentillesse naturelle des tunisiens.c'est pourquoi beaucoup de gens y retournent régulèrement
par contre pour un donneur de leçon et contrairement aux conseils d u ministère des affaires étrangères, tu es allé plusieurs fois aux philippines où Des mouvements islamistes armés et notamment le groupe Abou Sayyaf demeurent actifs et où La piraterie crapuleuse pratiquée par des mouvements terroristes est endémique et au cachemire où Les voyages touristiques dans ce pays sont formellement déconseillés
lequel de nous deux a pris des risques insensés??
tout voyage, même de +de 20 000kms, commence par le premier pas.....
comprenne qui pourra..
😉BONJOUR ce n, est pas le moment de vous quereller 🙁, ,il faut avouer que nous ne sommes en sécurité nulle part .😊..c, est triste pour les TUNISIENS car beaucoup travaillent dans le tourisme , ,et pas seulement dans les hôtels , ,je suis boulverséé , car nous y allons depuis 23 ans et nous y avons beaucoup d, amis surtout a SOUSSE ou nous passons tous nos hivers , ,, ,bon courage amis de SOUSSE ...
Cette attentat va surement avoir de très grosse conséquence vu le nombre de victime, le lieu (directement dans le périmètre d'un hôtel) et surtout de la nationalité de certaines victimes.
Ça aurait été "moins grave" si les 38 morts était des français car nous boudons déjà la Tunisie. Là, il y a des allemands et des britanniques qui eux, n'avaient pas encore déserté cette destination.
Je pense que ces deux pays risque maintenant de faire comme la France : bouder cette destination.
D'ailleur, cela commence:
Treize vols étaient affichés au départ de cet aéroport durant la nuit, notamment à destination de Londres, Manchester, Amsterdam, Bruxelles et Saint-Pétersbourg. «Nous avons peur, l’endroit n’est pas sûr», a confié un touriste évacué, originaire du Pays de Galles.
NOTE : le nombre passe à 38 mort avec des français dans le lot d'après le gouvernement tunisien. NOTE 2 : Il y a aussi 39 personnes, notamment des ressortissants de Grande-Bretagne, de Belgique, d’Allemagne et de Norvège, a avoir aussi été blessées.

Ben si, j'ai passe 15 jours en Tunisie en 78 et ce ne m'a pas laisse de souvenirs enchanteurs...🙁 Quand aux Philippines, je m'y sens plus en securite qu'en France,
d'ailleurs j'y vis depuis quelques annees maintenant.La seule zone a eviter est le
tiers Ouest de Mindanao et les iles Sulu, ailleurs c'est "SAFE" !Le Cachemire etait
plutot sympa au debut des annees 80, j'y suis plus alle depuis 82.
Quand a mon message initial il s'adressait aux:Delanoe, Mitterrand, Lara etc. et
non pas a toi...Ils doivent se sentir fier d'avoir envoye des gens a l'abattoir...🤪

Mix et Remix (caricaturiste suisse que j'adore, et à qui je pense souvent quand je lis certains propos consternants et sectaires sur ce forum) :
Mes meilleures pensées aux Tunisiens (pays où je vais fréquemment pour motifs professionnels, et dont j'apprécie toujours autant la vision ouverte et pacifique de ses habitants, toutes confessions confondues)
Conclusion : Le monde a beaucoup reculé depuis le siècle des lumières... Il serait temps de revenir à ce bon vieil humanisme (Puisqu'on sait que l'homme existe alors que Dieu, on n'est pas sûr, pensons au bonheur des hommes avant de mourir... le bonheur de Dieu, on aura tout le temps d'y penser après), peut-être basique et naïf, mais tellement réconfortant !

Oh bravo, je suis sure que tu es fier de cette magnifique - et pathétique - sortie. Dans le même état d'esprit, vu ce qui se passe en France depuis quelques temps, il faut vite arrêter d'y aller avant que la situation ne dégénère encore plus 🤪

+ 1 Comme tu dis magnifique et pathétique.
Et comme le dit Lexa "On avait prévenu pourtant.😐" Tu es sacrément visionnaire ! Peut-être peux tu nous indiquer où aura lieu le prochain attentat, que nous allions ailleurs 😠 ! Je suis solidaire des tunisiens mais aussi des koweitiens, des français, des maliens et de tous ceux qui souffrent à cause de leur opinion, leur religion, leur différence.

La terre entière est ma patrie et la famille humaine est ma tribu.
le terrorisme est un phénomène international, et n'importe quel pays peut être victime sachant que la Tunisie et son peuple essayent d'instaurer la première démocratie de la région arabe.
on mérite d’être soutenus ...mais ce qui est sur et certain le terrorisme n'aura aucun avenir en Tunisie
Tu es sacrément visionnaire ! Peut-être peux tu nous indiquer où aura lieu le prochain attentat, que nous allions ailleurs 😠 !
Ca, c'est pas dur. Le prochain, c'est en Syrie comme chaque jours depuis des années.😕

Ou plus simplement pour rester dans le sujet La TUNISIE 😐 qui va suivre la proche Libye dans le chaos, "certains" ne voulant surtout pas que la démocratie s'installe dans le pays ... ce n'est malheureusement qu'une question de temps vue la proximité libyenne !
Pour que les TO français ** aient pris la décision d'accepter le report de TOUS les voyages, vers la Tunisie, de la saison (jusqu'à fin octobre) c'est que le risque potentiel immédiat est grand car beaucoup vont y perdre !
** belges anglaisi sont sur le mm constat

Tu demeures à Lyon en Algérie??? c'est ce qui est marqué sous ton pseudo
Bon, je compatis pour la Tunisie, mais aussi pour la France ou tout de même un attentat a été commis dans la région lyonnaise et où la première décapitation post mortem a été commise, avec photo envoyée il me semble au Canada, le tueur avec la tête de son chef d'entreprise.
Donc ça peut arriver partout et n'importe où, la France aussi est visée, on n'est pas plus en sécurité sur les bords de la méditerranée dans le sud est qu'ailleurs.
Tout vient à point pour qui sait attendre

En tant que non islamiste, je me sens quand même plus en sécurité dans mon village en France que dans un hôtel en Tunisie.
Avant que les méchant viennent jouer au terroriste dans ma campagne, Paris et la Tunisie sont déjà envahie par les barbu. 😎

Je suppose que tu as quelques notions de géographie ? la Tunisie a une frontière (en mode passoire) avec la Libye et Tripoli est a 1200/1500Km de la France ! c'est juste une petite différence que l'on risque de vérifier, en particulier dans le sud tunisien, dans les faits bientôt !

Sincères condoléances à toutes les familles des malheureuses victimes de ce terrorisme aveugle. Quel dommage que ces gens n'aient pas prise au sérieux tous les avertissements qui avaient été émis face au risque d'augmentation de la recrudescence en Tunisie. Avertissements qui s'avèrent aujourd'hui tristement prémonitoires.
En espérant que la leçon sera retenue à l'avenir.
bonsoir,
attention à l'écrit ..surtout pour un premier message volontairement j'ai juste extrait une phrase qui ne reflète le reste de ce que vous avez écrit.

L augmentation de la recrudescence ??????c est une plaisanterie ???
tout voyage, même de +de 20 000kms, commence par le premier pas.....

Le pire, c'est que les étrangers redécouvrent que la Tunisie est devenu dangereuse à cause des média étranger "populaire" qui ne parle jamais des forces de l'ordre tunisienne qui sont tué régulièrement par les djihadistes.

mais pardon, ici nous échangeons avec les Lybiens, ils se réfugient ici, nous vivons avec et d'ailleurs ça pose des problèmes : les prix qui s'envolent, la police qui fouillent systématiquement ou presque leurs bagnoles (trafic d'armes), et tout le reste ....
les Lybiens réfugiés ici, te disent : "en balançant des armes, les Français ont foutu le bordel, maintenant nous sommes des réfugiés en Tunisie", et entre choisir entre une guerre civile, en plus avec Daesh qui progresse, les Lybiens réfugiés te disent "Khadafi était un dictateur et on savaient à quoi s'en tenir mais on vivaient"

Tu es libre d'écouter qui tu veux.
Pendant ce temps là, moi j'ai une pensée pour tous ceux qui sont morts sous le règne de Khadafi.
Ceux là n'auront même pas eu la chance d'aller trouver refuge en Tunisie.

If you're planning your trips for 2026, Bruno Maltor's latest video should catch your interest. The travel tips YouTuber lists about ten destinations that could seriously complicate your stay this year.
What to expect in 2026
Without giving everything away, here are a few hints about what might ruin your trip:
- Major construction projects turning some cities into work zones (Olympics, infrastructure, etc.)
- Iconic sites under scaffolding – yes, even world-famous landmarks
- Major sporting events causing prices to skyrocket and accommodations to fill up
- Formerly affordable destinations now priced out of reach
- New tourist restrictions in cities that can’t handle any more visitors
- Concerning health or logistical situations in certain countries
10 destinations scrutinized
Bruno Maltor breaks down the cases of Los Angeles, Athens, Barcelona, Hallstatt, Vancouver, Cuba, Argentina, Kyoto, the Canary Islands, and Cairo in his video. For each, he explains exactly what the issues are and whether they’re temporary or structural.
Watch the full video.
Dear community members,
For years, we’ve shared our stories, tips, and travel mishaps here. That’s the strength of our forum. However, we’ve noticed a trend: more and more travelers find themselves stuck with critical questions that need an immediate answer.
Sometimes, a post on the forum takes a few hours or even days to get the right response. When you’re traveling, you don’t always have that time—nor do you when you come across a great deal that’s only available for a few hours for booking. Some questions also go unanswered.
Why a WhatsApp group? To complement our discussions here, we’ve decided to launch a WhatsApp support group. The idea is simple: provide an instant communication channel for those who need reliable info, right away. Locals with real-time access to information can answer your questions.
What you’ll find there:
Answers to your specific destination questions: Unsure about a document? Ask your question live. On-the-ground alerts: Last-minute updates on border openings or transport conditions. No promotional content: we focus on your questions
How to join us?
The group is open to all forum members. Whether you’re in the middle of planning or already on the road with your backpack, this thread is here to help keep you safe.

Note: We’ll of course continue exchanging long stories and in-depth advice on the forum, but for urgent or technical/logistical questions, we’ll see you on WhatsApp!

Dear members, dear travelers,
The whole team sends you our best wishes for this new year. We hope you’ll have unexpected roads, light backpacks, and above all, that joy of sharing that keeps our community’s heart beating.
Independence comes at a cost (but it’s priceless)
The year that just ended was decisive. We made a strong choice: to keep VoyageForum and MyAtlas independent.
In concrete terms, this means:
Zero selling of your personal data. No invasive advertising. Content that belongs to travelers, not algorithms.
The reality of the numbers: why we need you To be completely transparent with you, running a platform like ours—covering hosting, data security, moderation, and the technical team that supports us—costs 10,000 € per month. The 2026 goal: The site in your pocket Your support will go toward a major priority you’ve often asked for: making VoyageForum and MyAtlas more mobile-friendly. We want to develop a seamless smartphone experience so you can check tips and share your stories more easily. To maintain this standard, we’ve invested a lot technically and personally. But today, to keep the adventure going in 2026 without compromise, we need you. How can you help? (The price of a coffee every two months) The most direct way to support us is to subscribe to the MyAtlas membership for 19 € per year. To do this, you’ll first need to create a MyAtlas account before subscribing. This isn’t just a subscription to a travel journal tool—it’s an act of support to keep VoyageForum’s infrastructure online, secure, and thriving. Today, we’re a community of 100,000 active members. If just 10% of you choose to support us through the MyAtlas membership, VoyageForum’s future isn’t just secure—we’ll finally be able to invest in what you’ve been missing most. Let’s co-build 2026 Beyond the financial aspect, we want 2026 to be the year of dialogue.
What features are you waiting for? What are your concerns or desires for the forum? Are you a pro (tech, tourism, content) and want to lend a hand?
Write to us at service@myatlas.com—we read everything. VoyageForum has existed by and for you for years. Thank you for being its pillars. Wishing you all wonderful end-of-year celebrations, The VoyageForum & MyAtlas Team

The end of a golden age
For years, travel forums embodied the spirit of mutual aid on the web. Travelers generously shared their experiences, tips, and secret spots. This collective generosity seemed endless. But behind this altruistic facade lay a more complex reality.
The silent infiltration of forums Free travel forums have gradually become marketing hunting grounds. Under the guise of "experienced travelers," professionals in tourism, affiliates seeking commissions, or aspiring influencers testing monetization strategies now lurk.
These fake profiles master the community’s codes. They build credibility by answering dozens of basic questions before subtly slipping in their paid recommendations. A "favorite" hotel mentioned insistently, an "essential" guidebook systematically cited, an "extraordinary" local agency that keeps coming up in conversations.
New travelers can no longer tell the difference between selfless advice and disguised promotion. This informational pollution has gradually eroded the trust that gave these platforms their value.
The rise of paid Travel Planners Faced with this decline, a new profession has emerged: the independent Travel Planner. These professionals fully embrace their commercial status and charge for personalized advice.
The model is transparent: you pay for real expertise, tailor-made itineraries, and guaranteed availability. Some offer packages for 150-300 € to plan a two-week trip entirely. Others charge by the hour.
This professionalization marks a turning point. Travel advice is leaving the realm of volunteerism and entering the world of paid services. Paradoxically, this acknowledged monetization can restore a form of trust: you know what you’re paying for.
The irruption of artificial intelligence But now, a third option is emerging: generative AI. ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and others can now generate travel itineraries in seconds, for free, with no commercial agenda.
AI promises neutral, synthetic, endlessly customizable information. It compiles thousands of sources in real time, suggests alternatives, and adapts recommendations to your budget and time constraints. It doesn’t sell anything, earns no commissions, and has no hotels to promote.
But this apparent neutrality hides its own limitations. AI feeds on existing data, often from the same polluted forums or marketing content. It can invent restaurants that don’t exist, mix up tourist seasons, or ignore recent local realities. It has never walked a city’s streets, negotiated with a tuk-tuk driver, or felt the atmosphere of a neighborhood at nightfall.
The forgotten alternative: authentic local experts In this landscape saturated with dubious information, imperfect AI, and monetized services, one often-overlooked option remains: consulting real local professionals.
Not the agencies at the top of Google’s first page—often the most expensive and generic. But small local businesses, independent guides established for years, still-free municipal tourism offices, and cultural associations organizing themed tours.
These players offer what neither AI nor forums can: embodied, up-to-date, contextualized knowledge of the area. They know the newly opened restaurant, the museum temporarily closed for renovations, the impromptu weekend festival, or the alternative route to avoid construction.
Finding them takes extra effort. You have to search in the local language, look beyond the first page of results, check regional institutional websites, and join community Facebook groups. But this approach is often rewarded with free or low-cost advice of unmatched precision.
Toward an ecology of travel advice The future of travel advice likely won’t be binary but hybrid. AI can rough out itineraries, propose logistical options, and compare alternatives. Travel Planners can refine, personalize, and reassure anxious travelers. Local experts can enrich, correct, and ground advice in on-the-ground reality.
But for this ecosystem to work, we’ll need to develop new discernment. Learn to spot fake profiles on forums. Systematically verify AI suggestions. Assess the real value of a Travel Planner before paying. And, above all, rediscover the habit of contacting those who live there directly.
Travel has always been a school of discernment. It teaches us to distinguish the authentic from the fake, sincere advice from commercial manipulation. In the digital age, this skill becomes more crucial than ever.
Because ultimately, the real question isn’t which information source to prioritize, but how to cultivate our own ability to evaluate, cross-check, and ultimately make informed choices. The best travel guide may still be our critical thinking.

I’ve kept quiet about them... to preserve them.
Those are the words of a passionate traveler who recently wrote to us.
For years, he’s been discovering rare, authentic places... and chooses to say nothing.
Out of respect. Out of fear of destruction. Out of love for secrecy.
What would you do?
You stumble upon a magical spot, still untouched by mass tourism.
Do you keep it to yourself... or do you open the door, gently, to other travelers?
At DIRECTRAVEL, we’re asking ourselves these questions.
Can sharing be an act of passing something on?
Or is it always the beginning of the end for these preserved places?

What if your travel memories had a place in a real journal? 🌍
Back-to-school season is when we get back into our routines, but it’s also when we look back on the great memories from summer. We often promise ourselves we’ll organize our photos, jot down our stories… and then life gets busy. Those memories slowly fade, stuck in our phones...
Travel journals from MyAtlas are here to change that. They let you gather your stories, your images, and your emotions in a beautiful keepsake you can hold onto and share. It’s like a personal diary, but illustrated by your travels.
Creating your journal also extends the travel experience: reliving your photos, rediscovering details you’d forgotten, and bringing those moments back to life.
Use the code BIENVENUE10 for 10% off your first album ;)

A new step for visitors starting September 2025
Laos is modernizing its border entry procedures. From September 1, 2025, the Laos Immigration Police Department will pilot a new online arrival registration system for foreign passport holders.
This new procedure is similar to Thailand’s recent switch to a digital arrival card system (introduced in May 2025). Just like in Thailand, travelers heading to Laos will still need a valid visa—either an e-visa obtained online in advance or a visa on arrival (VOA) at eligible checkpoints—but they can now skip the paper immigration forms at the border.

TikTok is currently experimenting with a hotel booking feature directly integrated into its app, in partnership with a well-known specialized platform. American users can now search for and book accommodations without leaving TikTok. Meanwhile, content creators with over 1,000 followers can promote hotels and restaurants in the U.S. and earn commissions or vouchers for bookings. This test, limited to the U.S. market for now, aligns with the trend of social commerce. There’s no doubt this initiative will be closely watched by major players in the online travel industry.

Originally planned for an official opening on July 3, 2025, the Grand Egyptian Museum in Cairo, which has already been partially open since autumn 2024, has had its official inauguration pushed back to the end of the year. This decision, made due to growing tensions in the Middle East, was motivated by the desire to give the event the international dimension it deserves.
Spanning 500,000 m²—larger than the Louvre (which has 360,000 m² of total space, including 73,000 m² of exhibition areas)—the museum will house up to 100,000 artifacts, including the complete collection of Tutankhamun and a monumental statue of Ramses II. It can already welcome 4,000 visitors per day with limited access, with a future capacity estimated at 13,000 per day once fully open.

Dear members of VoyageForum,
It is with deep sadness that we share the news of the passing of François Boucher, the founder of VoyageForum.
We will remember his passion for travel, but most of all, the pride he took in this forum, which has become indispensable among travelers. While there may have been heated debates, we ask that you show respect for him.
François was still very active on the forum, especially in the technical development section. VoyageForum was his life’s work. He worked passionately to update the site and make up for the 4 years of closure due to the pandemic.
Today, VoyageForum has also lost its developer.
That’s why we’re reaching out to this community to continue François’s legacy. If there are any former or current developers among you who know PERL and would be willing to help, your support would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your loyalty.
Let’s keep this forum alive in his memory.

According to a recent study, Bangkok ranks first among the top 100 global destinations for remote workers in 2025. The Thai capital stands out for its excellent value for money, solid infrastructure, and high satisfaction levels among digital nomads.
Dubai, London, Tokyo, and Nakhon Ratchasima (in Thailand) complete the top 5, each catering to different priorities (safety, connectivity, cultural vibrancy). The study also highlights the cost-of-living gaps between cities: from Weligama (Sri Lanka), very affordable, to New York, the most expensive.
Social media engagement and visitor return rates are also becoming key indicators for assessing a destination’s appeal to nomads.

You’ve probably noticed it: the real travel gems no longer show up in search results. In today’s all-digital age, those local operators, small authentic accommodations, passionate guides, and committed local initiatives remain invisible. No flashy website, no ads, often not even an online presence.
Yet they exist—people who take care of their land, their culture, their community. Hidden in valleys, villages, forests. These are the ones who truly give meaning to travel, the kind you only discover through word of mouth... or among savvy travelers.
A collaborative project is starting to patiently catalog them, one by one. It’s called DirecTravel. Not very well-known yet—it’s just getting started—but already shared among independent travel enthusiasts. Here, no standardization or flashy interface: every address has been discovered on the ground, the old-fashioned way. Some have even been recognized by the Sustainable Travel Awards.
Their approach? Taking the time to listen, build connections, and support local initiatives that will never appear on Google’s first page.
If you’re looking for something beyond the usual recommendations, and if the idea of sharing genuine tips speaks to you, then this project might interest you. And maybe you, too, have a gem to share with them.

Travel bookings to the United States are seeing a significant drop in France for summer 2025, with over a 30% decrease in the spring and around -11% for summer departures.
Several reasons explain this disengagement:
an unfavorable exchange rate at the start of the year, very high prices on the ground (accommodation, dining), negative experiences with immigration, as well as a political and social context perceived as off-putting (civil rights, safety, tense social climate).
Tourism professionals also note difficulties for Florida and some Southern states, while destinations like New York and Orlando are faring better.
The recent drop in the dollar and airfares could, however, encourage last-minute departures, and tourism stakeholders are betting on a gradual recovery starting this autumn, with major events planned for 2026 like the World Cup or the 250th anniversary of the United States.

This forum was closed for a long time after COVID, then due to its sale by the previous owner. Since 2022, there have been notable changes for Russia. It became possible to travel to Russia as a tourist again after COVID restrictions ended in summer 2022. But before that, in March 2022, the EU and member countries cut air links with Russia, as well as train lines. They also cut Russian banks off from the Euro-American banking network—meaning cards and wire transfers.
EU-based insurers stopped offering policies for Russia. The Green Card for cars in Russia was also discontinued. Then the EU abolished the simplified visa regime agreement with Russia. All in all, a summary of the current practical aspects would be helpful.
I’ve been traveling to Russia regularly for about twenty years, and after the long COVID break, I resumed in autumn 2022.
Visa
The usual paper visa is much more expensive. On one hand, because the previous regime was scrapped, and on the other, because invitations for multi-entry visas are pricier. A single-entry 30-day visa costs 80 €. The multi-entry one is 240 €. To be sure you’ll get a 12-month multi-entry, it’s best to buy a telex invitation from the MID (Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs), though there are few resellers. Prices vary depending on the seller.
E-visas are now available for Schengen passport holders. A big simplification for trips up to 16 days within a 60-day validity period. You can apply from 40 days up to 5 days before your desired date. Issued in up to four days. The site is https://evisa.kdmid.ru/ Cost: 50 €. Processed through an Emirati bank (United Arab Emirates).
Medical Insurance
Medical insurance with repatriation is required to get a visa. So you’ll need to buy a policy. This brings up payment methods. If you’re already familiar with Russia and have a Russian bank account, you can pay with your Russian card. Otherwise, you’ll have to buy from a site that accepts payments via a Belarusian bank—which means your bank must work with Belarus—or go through https://goingrus.com/fr/insurance
Transport from the EU
Minibus (marshrutka) from Kirkenes (Norway) to Murmansk. Schedules are coordinated with flights from Oslo, which arrive between 11:00 and 12:00. They wait on the right as you exit the airport. Some are chartered by groups and leave directly, but may have space—ask the driver. Otherwise, two companies run the route, with a stop in town at the corner of the Scandic, where they depart around 14:00 or 15:00. Payment in cash (NOK or RUB) to the driver. Main operator: https://borodinbus.com Bus from Tallinn (Estonia) to St. Petersburg. The border crossing is on the Narva River. The Russian road checkpoint has been closed since January 2024 for construction expected to last 2.5 years, so reopening is possible in summer 2026. In the meantime, it’s a two-bus journey: Tallinn-Narva, then walk across the bridge between the Estonian and Russian checkpoints at Ivangorod, followed by another bus. Several companies: Luxexpress, Ecolines, Baltic Shuttle, Anniston, СКСавто. Bus from Riga to Pskov or St. Petersburg (final destination). Departs from Riga’s bus station (behind the train station) daily between 18:00 and 19:00. Arrives in Pskov between 01:00 and 02:00 (Russian time). Company: СКСавто. There’s another bus around 21:00 with Ecolines, but it’s longer, with a long stop at the border. Bus from Gdańsk to Kaliningrad. Several buses per day. From the PKS bus station, behind Gdańsk’s central station, on the other side of the boulevard. From Kaliningrad, a 1-hour flight to St. Petersburg costs around 5000 RUB.
Basically, unless you’re planning to go to Murmansk and the Kola Peninsula—and possibly from Murmansk, flights to Arkhangelsk, then Nenetsia (Naryan-Mar), etc.—the three main crossing points with airports are Tallinn, Riga, and Gdańsk.
The Gdańsk-Kaliningrad bus is the fastest, and the ticket to St. Petersburg is very reasonable.
The Narva-Ivangorod route is the riskiest in terms of potential queues and crossing time. Holiday periods are especially risky. Last mid-June, I took a 14:00 bus from Tallinn. I’d bought a single-berth compartment on the Grand Express St. Petersburg-Moscow train, leaving at 23:00, with the idea of a good night’s rest before a Moscow-Magadan flight. A 7-hour queue at the border meant I arrived at St. Petersburg’s bus station at 23:00—missed the train, had to book a room, and spent time finding a reasonably priced flight to Moscow the next day for the same airport as my Magadan flight.
The Riga-Pskov route is a bit long but relaxed. If you get off in Pskov, you can still get decent sleep between 02:00 and 12:00. The Oktyabrskaya Hotel is cheap. I’ve also stopped in Izborsk. You ask the driver when boarding in Riga. The stop is on the federal highway—cross the road, and the main inn is 200m away. You can explore the medieval site the next morning before taking a bus to Pskov (30 km).
From Pskov, there are fast regional Lastochka trains—three or four per day—to St. Petersburg, taking 3.5 hours. Very comfortable and affordable. Also, two daily flights with Azimuth to Moscow-Vnukovo from 5000 RUB. A one-hour flight. It’s a section of Pskov’s military airfield, just a few kilometers from the city center.
Money
Cash. The EU issued a nonsensical decree: a ban on importing EU currency (euros, zloty, kroner, forints, etc.) except for personal travel use. This doesn’t make sense because as a citizen of a eurozone country, you *have* to have euros—cash or electronic (card). You can’t travel without them. The stipulation about a limit for personal use is absurd because personal use can mean anything from a hostel bed to a luxury hotel room, plus transport (flight tickets, train tickets in Russia), restaurants, etc. Estonian customs officers ask about this at the border when leaving. They ask in Estonian, then Russian, then English, depending. Since I cross with a French passport, I just say, "Sorry, I don’t understand," no matter what. Then they ask with a questioning look, "Euro?" and I shake my head. I haven’t been searched, but they do ask to glance in your bag. Russians with large suitcases often get checked. Cards and phone apps: if you have a Russian bank account.
Telephony and Internet
Roaming works but is pricey. Okay for calls and SMS, but very expensive for data. In that case, use an e-SIM with your home carrier if your phone supports it. Otherwise, look into prepaid rechargeable SIMs in Russia for data only—like SIM cards for mobile modems.
Russian SIM: Since this year (2025), as of March, it’s mandatory to be registered in the EBS (Unified Biometric System) to buy a SIM card. For a non-resident foreigner, this means first registering for a SNILS at an MFC (Multifunctional Center)—also called "My Documents." The SNILS is the pension center, which doesn’t require residency. After getting your SNILS number and certificate, you register on the public services portal, Gosuslugi. Finally, you register in the EBS system (voice sample—you read numbers—and a biometric facial photo).
Personal Car
The Green Card no longer covers Russia, and neither do EU-based insurers. But third-party liability insurance (OSAGO) is mandatory. Since the closure of the Russian checkpoint at Ivangorod for construction and the Finnish border closure, the routes are from Kirkenes in Norway, the Estonia-Pskov route, and—since the Belarus-Russia joint visa this year—the Belarus route, e.g., Poland-Terespol-Brest or Lithuania-Belarus. No OSAGO sales if you cross via Kirkenes. I didn’t see any at Shumilkino, the Russian checkpoint after Estonia toward Pskov. If you have a Russian card, you can buy online, of course. Otherwise, pay in cash on-site at certain company offices (specific forms aren’t available at all agencies) or online by paying to a third-party account outside Russia—with added fees.

The cruise sector has seen a remarkable rebound since the pandemic, with 2024 attendance 20% higher than in 2019—outpacing air traffic growth, which was limited to 10%.
This performance is driven by an early recovery in the U.S. starting in 2021, competitive pricing, and enhanced onboard offerings. Cruise companies have invested in innovation, with a notable increase in patents related to passenger health (14%) and onboard services (50%).
These efforts have attracted a younger clientele, with millennials now making up 34% of passengers. This recovery model could inspire the airline industry to accelerate its own rebound.
