trip to the Olympics will cost tourists at least a quarter of a million rubles.

Before the Olympics in Sochi, a year, but the problem with how to get to the mere mortal, starting now.

Today, virtually impossible to find a place in Sochi hotels for the duration of the Olympic Games: the part placement have not yet started to work in olimiyskom mode, in others all the booking already bought for athletes, fans, sponsors and volnterov, "Nezavisimaya Gazeta".

However, according to organizers, you can use the traditional Russian holiday-way - to rent a house in the private sector.However, it is costing a lot of money - at least 6000 rubles per person.It turns out that sports fans who want to visit most of the Olympic competition, will have to pay for accommodation alone, more than 200 thousand rubles.

This, recall, and the city authorities and the organizers of the 2014 Olympics have repeatedly made solemn promises not to raise prices during the Games.For example, last year, Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Zhukov explained that at the request of the International Olympic Committee, the price of rooms at hotels of Sochi will not prevyshet $ 20-30 per day.In addition, recently, Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev has signed a decree limiting the price of hotel rooms for the duration of the Olympic Games.

According to the above decree for the Winter Games of 2014 rooms categories studio suites, suites and apartments in a five star hotel Sochi for the fans, visitors and athletes will be worth a maximum of 13 000 900 rubles.The five rooms of a lower category of accommodation cost should not exceed 8 thousand 253 rubles for single occupancy and 10 thousand 570 rubles for a double room.Perhaps this will happen, but obviously not for mere mortals, because, as mentioned above, the reservation is almost impossible.

'll have to go to private traders, which the prime minister's decree - not a decree, and thus the pricing freer.Even today it is difficult to find a room in Sochi - even with shared facilities - less than 3000 rubles.

According to the director of the Sochi hotel "Russian Seasons" Vladimir Masyutina, at hotels participating in the program of the Olympic organizing committee all the rooms and they also booked - for the athletes, sponsors, volunteers and supporters organized."For these categories, prices will keep viewers according to the instructions of the prime minister.But the majority of private traders do not consider themselves bound by the prime minister's decrees - so they hope to appoint the highest possible price ", - he said.

In the private sector the level of two to three stars, according to Vladimir Masyutina, today prices start at 4-6 thousand for a double room.And during the Olympics they will adjust according to demand, and it is unlikely in the smaller side."Now we can assume that the deployment of all 17 days of the Olympics will cost about 100 thousand person", - summed up Masyutin.

sweat individual fan is necessary not only to search for rooms at the hotel, but with the purchase of tickets.

course, according to the president of the Organizing Committee, Dmitry Chernyshenko, the minimum entrance fee is 500 rubles, and a maximum of 50 thousand - in the same amount will cost presence on the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games.

opening ceremony will cost each viewer in the amount of 6 thousand to 50 thousand rubles, the closing ceremony - from 4.5 thousand to 37tysyach rubles.Hockey: from a thousand to 34 thousand rubles, figure skating, from a thousand to 20 thousand rubles.Speed ​​Skating - from a thousand to 6.5 thousand, short track - a thousand-6tysyach, skiing - from 500 rubles to 5.5 thousand, biathlon - 500-6,5 thousand, jumping - 500-6 thousand, mountainSkiing - 500-5,5 thousand, bobsleigh - 500-3 thousand.Curling - a thousand-5000.Thus, a visit to the opening and closing ceremonies, two - three hockey games, figure skating and a few tourists in the competition will cost 50-60 thousand rubles.

but tickets need to get more.Today book, or book a ticket to the Olympics through the official website of their distribution is no longer possible either to opening and closing ceremonies, nor competitions.And this despite the fact that the sale of tickets per person is limited.

The helpdesk ticketing program "Sochi-2014" said that tickets quickly selling out, but buy them all the same, you can - the main thing to watch for updates on the official website sales as tickets go on sale in parts, writes "Moskovsky Komsomolets".

however, specified in the customer support, will start operating in the autumn of the official website of the resale of tickets.Perhaps everything is missing today emerge tickets already there, though for very different prices.

But back to Sochi.Already, prices for transportation in Sochi, close to sky-high, so expect some major changes for the Olympics hardly worth it.This is confirmed by the experts, according to which the entire transport sector of the city is under strict government control.

So to get to the city economy class by air, to be paid not less than 10 thousand rubles.On the train, of course, cheaper - in reserved seat costs about 3-4 thousand rubles, coupe - about twice as much.

In the city between Olympic venues will run a bus that every day in Sochi is growing.Price trip, according to the general director of "Russian Seasons" is 15-20 rubles, and is unlikely to change - because the government controls.

So, with accommodation, tickets and transport sorted out.It's time to think about their daily bread.And with him, according to local tour operators in Sochi real problem.No power in the city enough - tourists may not have enough money for something to eat.For example, the city still does not have a single major hub of trade and product, like the large network of hypermarkets.Eat in Sochi is about a thousand rubles per person, without any culinary delights and alcohol.It turns out that on the day for food per person will go at least 3 thousand rubles.

But it is today.By the Olympics prices may jump by 20%.Thus, the food budget is to lay another 60 thousand.

In general, sports fans who can not wait to witness the Olympic Games in Sochi will have to bring along at least a quarter million rubles.Otherwise, have to settle for TV coverage, however, is free.
