A private car transfer between Sofia Airport and Varna covers the full width of the country in one journey. Your driver meets you in the Sofia Airport arrivals hall, loads the luggage and takes you straight to Varna or on to the northern resorts — no domestic flight or overnight coach needed.
The distance is ~450 km and the drive takes around 4 hours 45 minutes, using the A2 Hemus motorway for the completed sections and the I-4/I-9 trunk roads for the rest. It is the longest of our mainline routes, so it is usually booked as an executive saloon or an MPV for groups, with a comfort stop on the way.
Varna is the “sea capital” of Bulgaria and the base for Golden Sands, Albena, Sveti Konstantin, Kranevo and Balchik. We run the same private transfer to any of them, one-way or return, with flight tracking and child seats on request. Prices are agreed at booking with nothing added on arrival.
We provide transfers to:
- Sofia Airport ⇄ Varna city / seafront
- Sofia Airport ⇄ Golden Sands / Sveti Konstantin / Chaika
- Sofia Airport ⇄ Albena / Kranevo
- Sofia Airport ⇄ Balchik / Kavarna
- Varna ⇄ Sofia Airport for departures

How Much Is a Transfer from Sofia Airport to Varna?
Prices are calculated live for your exact journey, so there is no fixed list. Enter your pickup and drop-off and the booking form shows the price for each vehicle before you pay. The price is confirmed at booking and does not change on the road.
What the price depends on:
- Your exact drop-off. Varna centre, Golden Sands (~17 km north), Albena (~30 km) and Balchik (~40 km) are priced to the address you enter.
- The vehicle. On a drive this long, many clients choose the Premium Executive or an MPV for the extra room.
- One-way or return. Book both legs together and you can see both at once.
- The time and date. Journeys starting or ending between 22:30 and 05:00, and Christmas / New Year dates, carry a surcharge (see our General Terms).
Every transfer includes meet & greet in the arrivals hall, flight tracking and 1 hour of free waiting after your flight lands.
