A Trabant airport transfer in Sofia is the cheerful way into town. Instead of a taxi, a restored Trabant from the communist era waits for you at Sofia Airport, with an English-speaking driver who tells you about the city and the car on the way. The price is €90 per car, one way, to your hotel or any address in Sofia. It takes two people with standard luggage, or three if everyone has carry-on bags only. Book at least 24 hours before you land: real people on WhatsApp confirm the car and send you the payment link.

The Trabant was the small family car of East Germany and one of the best-known cars of the Eastern Bloc: a two-stroke engine, a light body and a tiny boot. Families across the region, Bulgaria included, waited years to get one. Today a Trabant on a Sofia street still turns heads, and stepping out of the terminal into one is a fun first look at the city's communist past.
The car on this Trabant pick-up from Sofia Airport is restored and looked after, but it is still a Trabant: simple and small, with plenty of character. Your driver speaks English and talks about Sofia, life in those years and the car itself on the ride to your hotel, which takes about 20 to 30 minutes depending on traffic.
The Trabant takes two people with standard luggage. A third passenger fits only if everyone travels with carry-on bags. For a bigger group we send up to three Trabants, €90 each, so four to nine friends can arrive in a little convoy. A favourite start to a stag do or a hen weekend in Sofia. Beyond that, or with large suitcases, we add a Mercedes for the rest of the group and the bags, at a price we confirm when you book. Just need a quick ride in a modern car? Our Sofia airport transfer starts at €25.
Pickup is in arrivals at Sofia Airport and drop-off at your hotel or any address in Sofia, about 20 to 30 minutes into the city. Give us your flight number and terminal when you book: the driver follows your flight and is waiting for you when you come out. A ride back to the airport in the Trabant is possible on request.
Your Trabant airport transfer costs €90 per car, for two people with luggage or three with carry-on only. Book at least 24 hours before you land and cancel free up to 48 hours before landing.
