How to get to Puglia

Wondering how to get to Puglia? Here is a little bit of information to help you

The most obvious way is to fly to Bari (north) and Brindisi (south) - the main travel hubs.

Public transportation is simply not that great in Puglia, so you'll get around faster with your own transportation. The roads are not busy with the hordes of cars and lorries we are used to seeing in other parts if Italy and it is relatively quite easy even for the lesser confident of drivers. Puglia has some of the best coastal roads to rival anywhere in the world and after the 1st few hundred miles, it is quite easy to take it for granted.

The key cities ( Lecce, Bari ) are accessible via the high speed train from Rome, therefore if you are not looking to get around whilst in Puglia it may be worth considering flying to Rome as flight prices can be considerably cheaper getting to the capital. Other parts of the region are connected by public transport but be prepared for them to arrive whenever they like and take their time. You will get to your destination but enjoy the La Dolce Vita on the way!

As the region becomes more popular each year where tourist numbers are increasing, there are new flight routes opening up all the time. We highly recommend booking earlier rather than later and prices can fluctuate massively.
