🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →Getting Around
Kazan International Airport → Metro Kozya Sloboda
💡 Pay with a transport card or cash to the driver – exact change helps. From Kozya Sloboda metro, take Line 1 to Kremlyovskaya, then a 10-min walk to the hostel.
Kozya Sloboda Station → Kremlyovskaya Station
💡 Get a Troika-style reloadable card from the ticket booth for multiple rides. Kremlyovskaya exit is signed in Tatar and Russian – head toward the Kremlin tower.
Kremlyovskaya Metro (Ulitsa Baumana stop) → Hostel Kremlin
💡 Use the same transport card as the metro. Trams get crowded by midday – if it's full, walk north along Pushkina instead: it's a flat 7 minutes.
Kazan International Airport (KZN) → Hostel Kremlin
💡 Book via the app rather than hailing at arrivals – airport taxis often double the price. Set the destination as Ulitsa Pushkina, 8.

Top Attractions in Kazan
💡 Try a serving of chak-chak from a local bakery stall near the top end. Aim for late afternoon when buskers appear.
💡 Rent a bike from a dock near the Gorky Park end—about 300 rubles per hour. The path around all three lakes is 6km, flat and good for a relaxed ride.
💡 Take marshrutka 77 from the city centre to the village of Staroye Arakchino. The exterior is best photographed at sunset when the colours warm. Don't expect a functioning church; it's an artwork.
💡 Go before 10am to avoid queues. The ticket office is at the main gate. Walk the ramparts for a panorama of the Volga and Kazanka rivers.
💡 Ask the curator to play a vinyl record on the old turntable. It's free and makes the visit memorable. Allow 45 minutes.
