BUS, RAIL & AIR

FLiXBUSInsanely low prices.
FlixBus is one of the strongest long distance coach operators in Europe, currently connecting approximately 700 cities across 16 countries and offering customers a wide range of different services on board. FlixBus allow everyone a chance to travel throughout Europe cheaply, comfortably and safely. They always have fantastic sales. The last time I was in Italy, I purchased a night bus from Milan to Naples for €5, and another night bus from Naples to Venice via Bologna for €11. I highly recommend Flixbus! |
