Do you want to <\/span>travel around <\/b>Salento<\/b> without a car<\/b>? Then you will definitely want to know how to get around using public transport, especially <\/span>Salento in Bus<\/b>.<\/span>
\n<\/span>Actually, we usually suggest travelling by car wherever possible, as not all parts of the Salento peninsula are well connected. Moreover, distances are sometimes long and you lose much more time with public transport. Not to mention that if you<\/span> travel to Salento in the summer<\/b>, waiting for transport under the sun is not recommended. In short, to experience a <\/span>holiday in Salento<\/b> at its best, we advise you to travel by car. However, public transport services are increasing, given the high demand, so if you are<\/span> travelling in Salento without a car<\/b>, in this article you will find a complete guide to help you get around without any problems!<\/span><\/p>\n

Salento in Bus: how to get around Salento without a car<\/b><\/h2>\n

While retaining that wild charm that makes it so spectacular, today <\/span>Salento <\/b>can boast numerous amenities and options for exploring far and wide. Leaving aside private transport, which obviously allows greater convenience, the alternatives offered today by public transport companies aim to provide a capillary service, capable of connecting the major points of interest in this <\/span>wonderful land<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The simplest and most flexible option is, without a doubt, the bus, which makes it possible to move from one city to another and visit the <\/span>most beautiful beaches in Salento<\/b>. In this respect, <\/span>Salento in Bus<\/b><\/a> was created: a <\/span>summer public transport system<\/b> implemented by the province of <\/span>Lecce<\/span>, which makes it<\/span> easy to move around Salento<\/b>, even without a car.<\/span><\/p>\n

Every year the mobility programme is updated by adding new routes, precisely to offer tourists, or locals who do not have the possibility of travelling by car, the most complete service possible at a cost that is accessible to all.<\/span><\/p>\n

This year, in fact, <\/span>4new routes<\/b> have been added to the 9 already existing ones, each marked by a specific colour.<\/span><\/p>\n

Salento in Bus 2023: useful information about the service [updated].<\/b><\/h2>\n

Salento in Bus<\/b> is a service provided by the STP company, which operates in the province of Lecce. Unfortunately, the service is only active during the summer months, precisely from June 18th to September 11th, but we hope that they will be able to increase the duration of the service to ensure easy travel even during the low season.<\/span><\/p>\n

With the increase in <\/span>tourist flows in Salento<\/b> and the change in tourist routes, it is now possible to reach many of those destinations that once remained unexplored by bus, allowing greater knowledge and promotion of the area.<\/span>
\n<\/span>There are <\/span>13 main lines<\/b> connecting the city of Lecce, the hinterland and the seaside resorts, supplemented by another 15 secondary lines. By the way, this year the routes of some lines heading to centres of special interest have been intensified, like the connection between<\/span> Lecce and Casalabate<\/b>, with transit at Cerrate, where the<\/span> famous Abbey<\/b>, a FAI heritage site, is located.<\/span><\/p>\n

To travel safely to popular places such as<\/span> Gallipoli<\/b>, <\/b>Otranto<\/b>, Lecce, <\/b>Leuca<\/b>, Porto Cesareo, <\/b>Torre dell’Orso<\/b> or <\/span>Torre San Giovanni<\/b>, <\/span>bus <\/b>in Salento can be very useful.<\/span>
\n<\/span>In addition to this, there is a shuttle bus that connects Lecce station terminal, from where many of the Salento in Bus routes depart, with Brindisi airport, the main airport for getting to Salento.<\/span><\/p>\n
