Transfer Ivano-Frankivsk — Rzeszów

This guide is for travellers coming the other way: from Ivano-Frankivsk in Ukraine to Rzeszów in Poland. The transfer covers about 355 km and takes roughly 6 h 40 min, including a typical border crossing; the real time varies with traffic. The route runs from Ivano-Frankivsk north-west past Lviv, through the Krakovets crossing to Korczowa and then along the A4 motorway.

The car collects you from any address in Ivano-Frankivsk, including Ivano-Frankivsk railway station, and takes you across the border to Rzeszów, so you arrive in Poland without changing vehicles. Rzeszów is a convenient place to continue from: the car can take you to a hotel, Rzeszów Główny station or Rzeszów–Jasionka Airport (RZE), and from there you can travel on by train, plane or onward transfer.

Coming from Ukraine you leave through the Krakovets checkpoint and enter Poland — and the Schengen area — through Korczowa. A private transfer changes how you cross: you stay in one car with one driver, with no walking between checkpoints, no changing buses and no waiting for a connection on the Polish side.

Queues at the border vary by day, season and time of day, so we do not quote waiting times here. Check the live queue information of the border services before you set off. Your driver follows the situation on the day and helps with communication at the checkpoint.

On the Polish side, border officers carry out the entry checks. They may ask about the purpose of your trip and where you will stay, so keep that information and your documents within easy reach. Once through, the car joins the A4 motorway straight away.

The main advantage of a private transfer is a flexible schedule that fits around you. We plan comfort and coffee breaks every 2–3 hours at large, modern service stations. If you need one, you can always ask the driver for an extra rest stop.

It is a long drive, so we plan at least one break — usually in the Lviv area on the Ukrainian side or at a service station on the A4 on the Polish side — where there are cafés and toilets.

Our vehicles offer a quiet cabin, reliable climate control and the option to charge your devices on the move.

How many suitcases fit depends on the vehicle: the capacity of each one is listed on our fleet page. Tell us about your luggage when booking and we will pick a car with enough room for both suitcases and hand luggage.

Entry and exit rules can change at short notice and depend on your citizenship and the purpose of your trip, so check the current rules before you travel, using the official information of the Polish and Ukrainian border services.

Keep your documents in hand luggage rather than in the boot, so you can show them quickly when asked. If children are travelling with you, find out in advance what is required for travelling with minors.

Before you travel, make sure you have checked:

• A valid passport or other travel document accepted for the crossing
• Any visa, permit or other document that applies to you
• Documents for children travelling with you, if any
