Can I travel out of Italy by Buses?
2464 of the Buses routes we sell touching Italy cross a border and 2364 stay inside it, reaching 15 other countries including Germany, Austria, Croatia. Cross border routes are usually the ones where the fare and the journey time differ most between operators.
Which operators run Buses services in Italy?
6 operators run Buses services on routes we sell in Italy: BlaBlaCar, Bus Regione Piemonte, Cotral, FlixBus, Flixbus CEE South. Each is a real carrier from the published operator catalogue, and each has its own fares and conditions. The operator table on this page compares them on speed, flexibility and what is on board.
What is the longest Buses route in Italy?
The longest Buses route we sell touching Italy runs from Madrid to Palermo, 1,489 km in a straight line. The median route in the country is 330 km, so this one is a considerable outlier and the fares on it behave differently from the rest.
Where these numbers come from
Schedules, seat counts and fares are generated by our own model until the supplier contracts are signed. Places, coordinates, operators, which operator serves which pair, and every distance are real. We would rather say that on every page than let a modelled number pass for a filed one.
