Get around Urals
The major forms of transportation between cities in the Ural region include train, bus, electric train, and airplane.
For inner-city travel, most cities offer a combination of these services: bus, trolleybus, and tramvai.
In any Russian city, however, you can find a taxi with great ease. Simply stand on the side of the road, and hold your hand out at waist level. Within a minute or two, someone will stop to ask you where you're going. In the Urals, short trips generally cost between 100 and 150 rubles (USD3-5), while longer, cross-town trips may cost over 150 rubles (over USD5). Always be wary, however, when flagging down a taxi in Russia. It is not recommended to get into a car with two or more males or with suspicious-looking individuals. You shouldn't expect to run into problems, but it's always better to play it safe in Russia.
