Where do I get the bus from?

Convenience

This is because it requires a taxi transport from the airport to the bus stop, and likely another taxi ride from the bus stop near Bonifacio to your destination. Keep in mind that the bus only departs three times daily, which can lead to long waiting times.

Editor’s Note

The C1b bus uses different timetables during July and August than the rest of the year, so check out the schedule accordingly ahead of your visit.

Useful Tips

If you plan to pay as you board, try to use small notes, as drivers may not always have sufficient change.
During peak seasons, there can be limited space for luggage, so it's best to travel light if possible.
To guarantee your seat, it's usually best to get your ticket ahead of time on the app.
