Hi there!
Now you got your World Cup tickets and, FunD and international flight sorted and you can't wait to land in Moscow.
But you didn't expect things go that easy with Russia, do you?
There is one issue you have to be aware of if planing to visit Russia for World Cup 2018.
Visa free entry widely advertised by Russian authorities and FIFA doesn't mean FanID is all that you have to arrange.
Apparently every foreigners who comes to Russia under FanID still must register in every city they visit within 24 hr upon arrival.

As we all know commuting between host cities is one of the main challenges on big tournaments like World Cup.
Especially in such a vast country like Russia where everything centralized via Moscow with limited direct flights between regional cities.
Most of free FIFA trains would also be between Moscow hub and host cities.
We already discussed how to use Russian intercity train network (RZD). Now it's time for plan B.
How to rent a car in Russia? Lets have a look.

We all heard of free trains arranged by host country for World Cup 2018 visitors.
You can find current timetable on FIFA trains portal. That's a welcoming initiative that would be appreciated by many.
But almost all of this trains have connection in Moscow so if you need to travel directly between regional cities all will turn into logistical nightmare.
Vast and reliable RZD train system is good alternative. Purchasing tickets online is easy, but English interface could be a bit confusing for non Russian speaking guests.
Here is some directions that would hopefully help you with the process.
