Sailboat Trucking and Global Shipping Services

Sailboat Transport Specialist

We specialize in mono-hull sailboat over-the-road transports as well as international sailboat shipping. Our trucking service covers all of the U.S. and Canada. Our sailboat trailers are specialty-built to handle sailboats up to 75′ in length. We have developed our own “safe system” for loading high keel sailboats and our adjustable trailer cradle systems are the most advanced made for long-haul moves.

No Substitute for Experience

We make many cross-country truck transports per year. Our professional drivers are highly trained for safe loading procedures with all sailboat transport moves, which are the key foundation to any highway haul. We understand the complex State Regulations and always make sure that our oversize permits are in legal order prior to making any move. This ensures that our insurance coverage is in 100% effect; not following laws within each State can cause coverage to lapse so staying legal is of paramount importance.

Preparing for Your Sailboat Transport

We recommend utilizing local marinas, boatyards and riggers to prepare your sailboat for shipping when needed. We have strong relationships with numerous marinas that can provide our customers with direct service of which we will provide advise and/or recommendations if needed.

For a frank and honest conversation about how to best transport your yacht, please contact us today.

We have the professional service you deserve for your Sailboat Transport.

Yacht Trucking relocated my 40′ trawler from Maine to Kentucky and the transport could not have gone any better. Getting out of the New England States is always a challenge with oversize loads and they worked hard during planning to have the necessary permits and routes without overspending. The driver kept me updated throughout the each day with texts, pics and phone calls as needed to show how the trip was going. Their equipment is first-rate. Highly recommended service.

YT just completed the delivery of our Beneteau 393 from Texas to t he San Francisco Bay area. I was very impressed by their professionalism and attention to detail. Not just double checking, but triple checking important items. Their crew was very helpful with the MANY questions I had and provided a lot of details that helped me understand and feel comfortable throughout the entire process. Highly recommended!

Outstanding experience transporting my houseboat from West Virginia to upstate New York. Equipment was specialized for transporting boats. The driver really knew his stuff and was very detailed in loading. I felt very confident that boat would arrive safely. Good communication and fair rates. I would highly recommend if them to anyone who needs to move a boat.

Everyone with Yacht Trucking was extremely easy to communicate with and I received excellent service from the driver and loader. We felt very comfortable with the entire process from the minute we signed our contract; to the day our boat was delivered to the port in Port Everglades from Ventura and loaded onto the ship’s deck; all the way through until it arrived in Majorca safe and sound; exceptional people to work with for shipping sailboats overseas.

Exceptional customer service with top-notch loadmasters that were especially careful when loading my motor cruiser onto the cradle and ship. I have moved my boat across the Atlantic 3 times and this was by far my best experience. I would highly recommend Yacht Trucking to anyone shipping their yacht across the Atlantic or the World and will use them again when the need arises.

Great Affordable Service – they just finished moving my 45′ Sea Ray from Miami to San Diego – very reasonable cost – ahead of schedule delivery – no damage – no extras – Great to find that SERVICE WITH A SMILE (my smile ) is still available in the US. Would highly recommend these guys to move a boat for anyone in need.

***** 5 STAR SERVICE!!! Yacht Trucking did an outstanding job relocating our 40′ sailboat from San Diego, CA to Anacortes, WA. Our driver was extremely professional and took expert care in getting our boat secured for transport. He remained in constant communication throughout the trip, sending daily updates of his progress.  He put all my anxiety to rest and delivered our boat early in perfect condition. There’s no doubt that I will pursue his services again without hesitation.

I was very pleased with the professionalism, price, and service from Yacht Trucking when they moved my 51’ Bluewater Coastal Cruiser from Marathon in the Florida Keys north to Pensacola.  I would definitely hire them again!

Transport a Sailboat - Costs & How To Ship

Last Updated by

Daniel Wade

June 15, 2022

Sailboat transport is an essential and very well-established boating service with numerous options.

Sailboats can be transported by single-axle trailers, multi-axle trailers, cargo ships, and occasionally trains. Sailboats can also be transported across an ocean on their own with the help of a hired captain and crew. Costs vary widely based on size and type, and they range from $200 to more than $15,000.

In this article, we’ll cover several of the most common sailboat transportation methods. We’ll cover the details and requirements of each method, along with the required method by sailboat size and type. Additionally, we’ll explore the average costs of each method for a typical production cruising sailboat.

We sourced the information used in this article from sailboat transport agencies along with government towing and transportation guides. We carefully researched pricing to help you get a basic idea of what it’ll cost to transport a sailboat.

Table of contents

‍ Is Transporting a Sailboat Difficult?

It’s not necessarily difficult to transport a sailboat, but it does require care and careful planning. Your responsibilities as the sailboat owner range from trailer maintenance and careful driving to the organization of international logistics. In this article, we’ll discuss ways to streamline the process and make it easier.

Is Sailboat Transport Expensive?

Sailboat transport can be expensive, but it doesn’t have to be. Obviously, moving a small sailboat is relatively cheap in comparison, especially if you already have a truck and a trailer.

The cost of transporting a larger boat is higher, as you’ll probably need to hire a shipping company or a crew.

There are multiple ways to transport a large sailboat, and the more economical method isn’t always immediately evident. Some boats may be cheaper to ship on a specially-designed yacht carrying vessel, while others may be cheaper if you hire a delivery crew.

Pricing varies between boats, locations, and destinations, so it’s essential to research all available methods and request multiple quotes. If you do, you could save thousands on transport and delivery, not to mention insurance costs to protect your vessel from possible damage.

Sailboat Transport Methods

There are several ways to transport a sailboat, and the ideal method depends upon the size and dry weight of the vessel. Dry weight is distinct from displacement, so it’s important to ensure that you have the correct number. Here are the most common ways to transport sailboats short and long distances.

Self Towing

Some sailboats can be towed, though the vehicle, trailer type, and license requirements vary based on size. The smallest and lightest dinghies and pocket cruisers can be towed by most typical cars, provided you have a heavy-duty tow hitch installed.

Larger sailboats, in the 20-foot range and longer, usually need to be towed by a pickup truck or SUV. A half-ton gasoline pickup truck is sufficient for lighter vessels, as long as the dry weight doesn’t exceed the vehicle’s towing capacity.

Also, remember that some automakers determine towing capacity under ideal test conditions, so your truck’s actual towing ability may be slightly lower than its rating.

You’ll have to collapse or remove the mast, boom, and standing rigging of the sailboat and secure it, regardless of its size.

Most trailer sailers can be towed by half-ton or 3/4 ton single rear wheel trucks. Larger sailboats, such as towable coastal cruisers, may require a multi-axle trailer and a gooseneck. This setup is often found with a dually 3/4 ton or 1-ton truck.

The Basics of Towing Rules in the United States

The rules of the road are clear when it comes to towing. With a Class C license (a standard driver’s license), the maximum overall trailer length you can tow is 60 feet. The maximum length of a Class C trailer surface is 53 feet.

Length usually isn’t the issue when it comes to towing sailboats. The maximum width of a class C trailer is 8 ft 6 in, which includes the items on the trailer. The regulations mean that the beam of your boat can’t exceed about 8 feet, give or take a couple of inches.

With a more advanced license or a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL), you can tow a much larger trailer and drive a semi-truck. Some larger sailboats with greater beam width can be towed this way, though only if they remain below the maximum height.

Height requirements for trailers vary between 13 ft, 6 inches to 14 ft, depending on the location. This is measured from the ground to the top of the item on the trailer.

Be sure to plan your route carefully if you’re towing a boat with a full keel, as some older overpasses and railroad bridges are much shorter than 13 feet. 

Professional Towing Services

It’s usually best to leave the towing to professionals, especially if you’re towing a large boat. Experienced drivers with big rigs and commercial licenses can transport surprisingly large vessels safely but at a cost. The benefit of using a professional service is that you’re taking the risk off your shoulders.

Many professional towing services offer insurance, which is essential. Insurance protects the loading and unloading of the boat and covers any damages that occur en route. For the price, it’s a no-brainer.

In most cases, the tow company will not be able to help you launch your boat. You’re responsible for arranging boat crane services at your destination. It’s best to plan carefully, as you may end up paying more if you make the driver wait too long.

Cost of Professional Sailboat Towing Services

Cost varies widely based on the company, location, and size of the load. Most towing companies have a base fee, a fee of the assessed load, and then a per-mile charge. Some companies have different fee structures.

Companies that offer quotes usually predict a charge of between $500 and $1,000 for typical trips, though it can cost as little as $300 if you have a relatively small boat and it only needs to travel a short distance.

Shipping a Sailboat on a Cargo Ship

Large and small sailboats are frequently sent across oceans via cargo ships. This method is time-tested and relatively cost-effective, though it’s not as straightforward as just sailing the boat across.

Some people hire an agent to arrange shipping, which is the easiest and most reliable way to have a headache-free experience.

Shipping a sailboat by sea is slower than over-the-road transport, and schedules are less flexible. Often, you’ll have to wait for a spot to open up on a specifically-designed yacht carrying ship.

Once the ships are loaded, they set out at predetermined times that might be months ahead of when you booked. The best way to ensure you get a spot on a yacht shipping vessel is to plan well in advance of when you actually need to transport the vessel.

Logistics are the greatest challenge of shipping a boat on a larger ship. If you don’t work with an agent or an accommodating shipping company, you could have to work out the following and more:

• Transportation to the shipping yard
• Loading and securing instructions
• Shipping destination
• Payments to various services
• Customs in the destination country (if outside of the U.S.)
• Taxes and import fees
• Declarations
• Inspections
• Unloading at the destination
• Transportation from the destination port to the marina

As you can see, there are lots of reasons to hire a professional to manage the minutiae of shipping a sailboat. The last thing you want is to have your boat seized at customs or have it dropped off in an unguarded yard in the wrong location.

Cost to Ship a Sailboat on a Cargo Ship

Shipping costs for ocean-going boat transport are lower than many people expect. A lot of factors are involved, including the size of the boat, its height (from keel to mast top), its displacement, and the distance it needs to be shipped.

The lowest prices you’ll find to ship an average-sized boat are around $3,000 to $5,000. A more typical estimate for an average sailboat is between $6,000 and $10,000. Some vessels and destinations cost upwards of $15,000. Costs tend to increase with the size and distance, and the value of your sailboat also plays a part.

Prices in the yacht shipping industry are competitive, which is why it’s relatively affordable to ship a boat over an ocean. It’s surprisingly popular as well, and there are more than a dozen shipping companies offering long-distance ocean transport specifically for yachts of various sizes.

Hired Delivery

Hired crews for boat delivery is the other way to transport a sailboat over the water. Crew services find a captain and a small professional crew to sail your boat for you.

This is a great option for large boats, as it’s often less expensive and time-consuming than shipping it on a larger vessel.

Hired crew delivery services are offered by companies and experienced individuals. You can even find a trusted friend to crew your boat for you, and they can hire a crew member or two to accompany them for the journey.

While under hire, the crew will be living in your boat. Crew members come from all backgrounds, and many sailors spend a summer or two working for a charter service to make some money or get free transportation to other countries.

Cost to Hire a Delivery Crew

Hired crew delivery costs vary, though the more hands you need, the more it costs. Crews and captains usually charge daily rates for yacht delivery services. A fast sailboat is almost always cheaper to transport than a slow sailboat.

As an example, we’ll use the services of Captain James Lowe , who is a USCG licensed 200-ton Master. As of the writing of this article, Captain James Lowe charges between $350 and $425 per day for his services, depending on the size of the vessel. Deckhands cost $175 per day per person, which is in addition to the Captain’s charges.

These are the base rates, and they’re a good representation of what professional crewed delivery costs. You may find cheaper rates with other groups or individuals, but it’s worth the cost if you want a trustworthy and experienced crew.

Additional charges often include transportation costs (to and from the destinations), fuel costs (for heating, cooking, and motoring), and a deposit is usually required for fuel. These costs are impossible to predict without knowing your specific plans, so it’s best to reach out to Captain James Lowe for a specialized quote.

Hired crew delivery services usually have a minimum crew requirement for different boat sizes and types. In this case, sailboats require a minimum of one deckhand in addition to a captain. Larger sailing vessels of 65 feet or greater require two or more additional deckhands.

This is Al from the J/109. I’m one of those uber-nervous boat owners when it comes to handing your baby boat over to somebody else, particularly when they get on the road for 1800 miles. Chris at US Boat Haulers was actually able to put me at ease. Great experience! he was on time (on both ends of the trip), very careful with the boat and he was always accessible along the way. He gave me a link to a tracker, so I always knew where they were. He worked with the yards on both ends and sent me pictures every evening when he stopped and at the origin and destination. Truly couldn’t ask for more..

Chris did an excellent job…Being the first time I have done this he made it easy…The thing I was impressed with the most was how involved he was at both Marina’s…He was on point making sure it was done the correct way…would recommend him and his service to anyone…Thanks Chris and we are enjoying our boat…

US Boat Haulers and Chris Holmes did an INCREDIBLE job hauling our 400 FX Formula. The daily communication and real time GPS tracking created an additional level of comfort during the haul. From the initial quote, to providing full coverage Cargo Insurance, and to final delivery and unloading, Chris was 110% professional, polite and a pleasure to deal with. If you want you boat hauled with a piece of mind and done right, then hire US Boat Haulers; They are WORTH IT !!!!! Thank You Chris!!!

The Cost of Transporting a Boat

The cost of shipping and services is undoubtedly one of the first things you think of when it's time to transport your boat. Choosing the right boat transport company is essential to ensure you get the top hauling services at the best prices.

Several factors go into boat hauling costs, including:

• ● Boat dimensions – The larger and heavier the boat, the more it will cost to transport.
• ● Distance – Shorter-distance boat shipments require less gas and may not have as many tolls, making the cost of hauling less.
• ● Oversize Boats – Oversize boats will cost more to ship, not only because of their size but because oversize loads require special permits for safe transport.

The average cost of shipping about per mile is $1.25-$15.00.

Since the cost of boat transport is affected by many varying factors, it's best to speak with a Heavy Haulers shipping agent.

BOAT TRANSPORT GUIDE HOW TO SHIP A BOAT OVERSEAS

The best way to ship a boat overseas is to work with a logistics company, like Heavy Haulers, that has both boat transport experience and international shipping experience. Our dedicated international team understands the ins and outs of customs, preparing a boat for international transport, and more.

There are multiple options for overseas boat transport.

• ● Roll-on/Roll-off (RO/RO) : This is the most common option when shipping a boat overseas. Roll-on/Roll-off transport has the boat stay on the trailer (whether it’s your personal boat trailer or a heavy-duty trailer provided by the carrier) for the trip.
• ● Enclosed Container : Most cargo ships and freighters carry enclosed shipping containers filled with various goods. Since the standard dimensions are 40’ long, 7’10” high, and 7’8” wide, you must ensure your boat fits within the measurements for this transport option. While this is less expensive than the roll-on/roll-off transport method, it is less utilized because boats rarely fit within the dimensions. Keep in mind that the trailer has to be included as well.
• ● Flat Rack : – This is the most common method for oversize boat shipping. The boat is placed in a custom cradle that is strapped into the flat rack and secured to the cargo ship. With this method, high bridges and other bulk items should be removed for safety and to reduce costs.
• ● Submersion : – The boat is loaded and unloaded directly from the water.

Call Heavy Haulers to determine the best method for shipping your boat overseas. Our international agents will guide you through every step of the process, including winterizing your boat. Shrinkwrapping your boat may also be suggested to keep your boat safe from any minor dings during transport. (800) 908-6206

History of Tver

Tver in the 12th-16th centuries.

Tver has a rich history dating back to the first half of the 12th century. Officially, the year of foundation of the city is 1135. According to archaeological data, a settlement on the cape at the confluence of the T’maka River with the Volga existed already in the 9th-10th centuries. In the 12th century, it was a small trading settlement. The first birch bark letter, found in Tver on the territory of the old Tver Kremlin, dates back to 1200-1220.

In the first third of the 13th century, Tver was part of the Principality of Pereyaslavl. In 1238, the town was ravaged by the Mongols, but quickly recovered from the defeat. In 1247, Tver became the capital of the Principality of Tver.

The geographical position of Tver on an important trade route connecting Novgorod with northeastern Russia, and the relative remoteness from the Golden Horde contributed to the influx of population from other Russian lands into the region. The growth of Tver was also caused by the change in its political role. In 1264, Prince Yaroslav of Tver became the Grand Duke of Vladimir, but stayed to live in Tver.

Chronicles and stone construction were resumed in Tver for the first time in Rus after a 50-year hiatus. Tver developed its own original art school: architecture, icon painting, jewelry, decorative and applied arts. Its own coin was also minted here.

More Historical Facts…

In the summer of 1327, after the arrival of the khan’s ambassador Shevkal in Tver, rumors spread about the imminent conversion of the residents of Tver to Islam. A powerful uprising broke out in the town. With the help of Ivan Kalita, Grand Duke of Moscow, it was brutally suppressed; Tver was ruined. The suppression of the uprising marked the beginning of the decline of Tver.

Until the second half of the 15th century, Tver was subjected to repeated attacks by the Mongols and Moscow. In this struggle, Tver gradually lost its leading position among the old principalities of North-Eastern Russia. Moscow became the unifier of the Russian lands. This struggle undermined the strength of Tver. However, in the 14th-15th centuries, it remained a large trade, craft, and cultural center, one of the most developed Russian towns. In 1485, Moscow troops occupied Tver, the Tver Principality ceased to exist and became part of the emerging Russian centralized state.

In the 16th century, the oldest surviving church in Tver, the Trinity Church, known as the White Trinity, was built. In December 1569, Tver was plundered by the oprichnina army of Ivan IV the Terrible during his campaign against Novgorod.

Tver in the 17th-19th centuries

At the beginning of the 17th century, about 10,000 people lived in Tver. In 1612, during the Time of Troubles, it was completely devastated by the Polish-Lithuanian troops. In 1629, the town had 11 abandoned churches and monasteries, 1,450 empty houses. In 1685, its population was about 4,600 residents.

In the 18th century, after the founding of St. Petersburg, Tver became an important communication point between the new capital of Russia and Moscow. In 1701, by order of Peter I, a floating bridge on rafts was built in Tver, which existed until 1900. By 1709, the construction of the Vyshnevolotsk water system was completed, which connected the Volga with the Baltic Sea.

A lot of civil buildings were constructed in Tver. Many of them have survived to this day. The oldest of them is considered to be the house of the merchant Arefiev, which houses the museum of Tver everyday life now.

In 1763, a fire destroyed the central part of Tver. The main features of the new regular planning of the town were the long axial Millionnaya (Sovetskaya) Street, named so because a million rubles were allocated for the construction of stone houses in the town center; as well as the “Versailles trident” - a three-rayed composition of streets converging at one point, modeled on a similar urban planning technique used in St. Petersburg.

In 1764-1766, the main attraction of Tver was constructed - the Travel Palace of Empress Catherine in the style of classicism with baroque elements, designed by M.F. Kazakov. The palace was intended for the rest of the members of the imperial family on the way from St. Petersburg to Moscow. In 1787, the population of Tver was about 15,100 people.

In 1851, Tver was connected with St. Petersburg and Moscow by the Nikolaev railway. In the second half of the 19th century, a steamship society, a weaving manufactory, a mechanical plant for the production of parts for textile machines, sawmills, and other enterprises were opened in Tver. In 1850-1860, three textile factories were founded in Tver.

Tver in the 20th century and beyond

In 1900, a permanent bridge across the Volga River was built in Tver, designed by the Czech engineer L. Mashek. In 1914, the population of Tver was 63,900 people. With the outbreak of the First World War, the Russian Empire experienced problems in exchanging information with its allies - France and the British Empire, since most of the European land lines passed through the German Empire. The key role in the exchange of information between the allies was played by the Tver special purpose radio station of the Russian military department. During the war, the Russian-Baltic Carriage Works were evacuated to Tver from Riga.

In the 1920s-1930s, dozens of churches, architectural monuments of the 17th-19th centuries, were closed and destroyed in the city. On November 20, 1931, Tver was renamed Kalinin, in honor of M.I. Kalinin, the Soviet party and statesman, a native of the Tver Governorate. In 1935, Kalinin became the administrative center of Kalinin Oblast. The population of the city was 216,131 people in 1939.

On October 17, 1941, during the Second World War, the city was captured by the Germans, however, their further advance was delayed, and in the northwest direction it was completely stopped. It was under German occupation for about two months. During the occupation and heavy fighting, the city was badly damaged, more than half of the residential buildings and about 70 enterprises were destroyed. Until the liberation of Rzhev (March 3, 1943), Kalinin was subjected to systematic raids by German aircraft.

On November 1, 1945, a decree was adopted on the priority restoration of 15 most important cities of Russia destroyed during the war, including the city of Kalinin. In the 1950s-1960s, magnificent buildings in the style of Stalinist classicism were erected: the drama theater (1951), the library named after M. Gorky, the technical school on Lenin Avenue (1957), the ensembles of Novopromyshlennaya Square, Peace Square, Gagarin Square.

In the second half of the 20th century, an electrical equipment plant, a chemical fiber plant, a silicate brick plant, a silk-weaving factory, a meat processing plant, a pharmaceutical factory, a fiberglass plant, etc. were opened in Kalinin. It became not only a large industrial city, but also an important transport hub. In 1961, a river port and a circular highway were opened here, connecting highways to Moscow, Leningrad, Rzhev, and Volokolamsk.

In 1989, the population of Tver was 450,941 people. By the early 1990s, there were about 80 industrial enterprises of 28 industries, 5 universities, 3 theaters, 12 movie theaters, 8 palaces of culture in Kalinin. On July 17, 1990, the historical name and coat of arms were returned to the city.

Due to the negative economic consequences caused by the collapse of the Soviet Union, active development in the city temporarily ceased. The only new microdistrict built in the 1990s-2000s was the microdistrict Mamulino, built for the withdrawal of a contingent of Soviet troops from East Germany in 1993.

The new economic reality turned out to be disastrous for the local industry, especially the light one, traditional for the city, as a result of which the largest enterprises of Tver stopped their work, which caused an increase in the level of unemployment and social tension.

In the mid-2000s, large-scale housing construction resumed in Tver, active construction of public buildings, shopping and entertainment centers began. At the same time, new industrial enterprises were commissioned.

Tver - Features

There are several versions about the etymology of the name of Tver. According to one of them, it was named after the Tvertsa River, and Tvertsa, in turn, is derived from the Finnish word “tiort” (“fast”). According to another version, the name of the city comes from the Slavic “tverd” (“fortress”). In addition, this name is associated with the Polish word “twierdza” (“fortress”) and the Lithuanian words “tvora” (“fence”) and “tverti” (“to enclose”).

Tver is located at the intersection of the railway and highway connecting Moscow and St. Petersburg with the Volga in its upper reaches; about 180 km north-west of Moscow and 520 km south-east of St. Petersburg. The City Day of Tver is celebrated on the last Saturday of June.

The climate in Tver is moderately continental, with cold and rather long winters and warm, humid summers. The average temperature in February is minus 8.3 degrees Celsius, in July - plus 19.8 degrees Celsius.

The coat of arms of Tver corresponds to the historical coat of arms of Tver approved by Empress Catherine II in 1780 with the following description: “In a red field, on a green pillow, a golden crown”.

Tver is one of the largest industrial centers in Russia. The main industrial sectors of the city are mechanical engineering, printing, and food processing. A characteristic feature of local machine building is its concentration in one enterprise: Tver Carriage Works (the largest employer in Tver with more than 8 thousand employees).

Today, Tver is an important tourist center of Russia. The city has preserved a lot of historical mansions of the 18th century, with which almost the entire Volga embankment is built up. The restored churches of the 17th century are also of great interest.

The Volga River is worth a separate mention. Within the limits of Tver, its banks are dressed in picturesque embankments, where comfortable areas for recreation and walking have been created.

Tver Oblast is a region in Central Russia , which borders Smolensk Oblast to the southwest, Pskov Oblast to the west, Novgorod Oblast to the north, Vologda Oblast to the northeast, Yaroslavl Oblast to the east, and Moscow Oblast to the southeast.

• 56.857828 35.921928 1 Tver — the capital and only major city of the region; an ancient city with a prestigious past that once contended with Moscow for control of Russia, that is now a shell of its former self following widespread destruction from cultural vandalism at the hands of the Soviet government and the Nazi Wehrmacht

Russian is the principal language in all aspects of life in the region. However, English is now taught regularly in most Russian schools, and more and more Russians nationals can speak English, some quite fluently.

There is a still vivid Karelian minority (1   %, 6.7   % in 1897), who originally moved here following the Treaty of Stolbova 1617. People in the conceded areas would have to convert to Lutheranism, which was the only legal religion in Sweden – and pay heavy taxes – and many chose to move to land still Russian. There is also a Ukrainian minority (1,5   %).

Tver does have an international airport (Migalovo), but most travelers arrive via the well-traveled railroad running between Saint Petersburg and nearby Moscow .

Within the city limits of Tver, there are several small shuttle vans available and a dated, but generally reliable, electric trolley system, at nominal cost. Commercial taxicabs should be avoided, however, as they can be very expensive, especially if the driver discovers that the passengers are foreigners. There is also a bus service connecting Tver with Moscow. There is also rail service as Tver is a major stop on the regular trains that operate between Moscow and St Petersburg.

Fast food restaurants have taken root in Tver, including fast-food chicken and hamburger outlets. Prices are reasonable in most cases. Some of the independent restaurants tend to be a bit pricey and intentional overcharges often occur, especially if foreigners are the customers.

There are a few nightclubs and restaurants that serve liquor in Tver; however, some of them has cover charges.

• Novgorod is an easy and rewarding destination to get to from Tver Oblast, which could be done as a day trip.
