====== Transportation ====== * [[http://www.ap-ljubljana.si/eng/vozni_eng.php?uIfr=1|Ljubljana-Koper-Piran]] ===== Italy ===== The public transport connections between Italy and Slovenia are not good. Trieste = Trst\\ Venezia = Venice = Benetke\\ Gorizia = Gorica The simplest (and expensive) way is to use taxi. There are some companies (GoOpti, Turanus, ) providing shuttle transfer to the Italian airports. It seems that the direct trains Ljubljana-Venice are not operating any more. The routes with at least one change are going trough Villach (in Austria). The cheap routes combining buses and trains are the following: Airport -bus/train- Trieste -bus- Ljubljana\\ Airport -bus/train- Trieste -bus/taxi- Koper/Capodistria -bus/train- Ljubljana\\ Airport -bus/train- Gorizia -foot/taxi- Nova Gorica -bus- Ljubljana\\ Airport -bus/train- Villach -train- Ljubljana Weekdays and weekends have very different schedules. Many buses do not run at all on Sundays. **Trieste Airport/Ronchi**: [[http://www.aeroporto.fvg.it/en/come_arrivare/trasporto_pubblico.htm|Ronchi - public transport]]. [[http://www.aeroporto.fvg.it/en/come_arrivare/trasporto_pubblico/arrivi/33/Ljubljana.htm|Ljubljana-Ronchi]], [[http://www.aeroporto.fvg.it/en/come_arrivare/trasporto_pubblico/partenze/33/Ljubljana.htm|Ronchi-Ljubljana]] When you arrive at Ronchi airport, you will need to take a bus to Trieste. As you leave the baggage claim area, enter the corridor of the airport (it's a tiny airport) and turn left. On your left you will see a counter where you can buy a bus ticket. You will want Bus #51, and it leaves the airport about every 30 minutes from 6 AM to 11:30 PM on weekdays, less often on weekends. Bus via Nova Gorica/Gorizia (the bus from Ljubljana arrives at the Slovenian side and the bus to the airport leaves from the Italian side of the town). Ljubljana dp 8.35 - Nova Gorica ar 11.07 (daily except Sunday), taxi from Nova Gorica bus station to Gorizia bus station, Gorizia dp 12.30 - Trieste airport ar 13.00 (daily except Sunday, bus 1 or 26). **Trieste**: The central bus station in Trieste is immediately next door to the train station. However, depending on the time of day you arrive, you may prefer to take a bus to Ljubljana rather than a train. The train would require you to change at Udine and again at Villach. Or you could take a bus to Koper, and then a train or bus to Ljubljana - they are more frequent. ==== Direct links Ljubljana - Airports Trieste or Venice ==== * Shuttle, car: [[http://www.goopti.com/|GoOpti]] * Shuttle: [[http://www.drd.si/en/default.aspx?ID=199|DRD]] * Turanus shuttle: [[http://www.turanus.com/trieste-italy-airport-shuttle-as25.html|Ljubljana-Trieste]], [[http://www.turanus.com/venice-airport-shuttle-as3.html|Ljubljana-Venice]] ==== Links Ljubljana - Trieste ==== * Bus station Ljubljana: [[http://www.ap-ljubljana.si/eng/vozni_eng.php?uIfr=1|Ljubljana-Trst]] * Veolia bus: [[http://www.veolia-transport.si/Vozni_redi_in_vozovnice/Vozni_redi/Mednarodni_vozni_redi/LJUBLJANA_-_TRST/index.html?iLangID=2|Ljubljana-Trst]] * Florentia bus: [[http://www.florentiabus.it/eng/firenze-sofia.asp|Venezia/Mestre-Trieste-Ljubljana]] ==== Info ==== * Fodor's: Ljubljana-Venice: [[http://www.fodors.com/community/europe/is-it-really-so-difficult-to-get-from-venice-to-ljubljana.cfm|1]], [[http://www.fodors.com/community/europe/train-from-venice-to-ljubljana-slovenia.cfm|2]], [[http://www.fodors.com/community/europe/ljubljana-to-venice-by-train-.cfm|3]] * Train: [[http://www.slo-zeleznice.si/en/passengers/abroad/destinations/italy|Slovenia-Italy]] * http://www.raildude.com/train/ljubljana-venice-train-t3663.html * http://www2.units.it/linglab/howtogetthere.html * https://prevoz.org/intl/ * http://www.koper.si/index.php?page=static&item=2002075 * http://www.aeroporto.fvg.it/it/come_arrivare/trasporto_pubblico/arrivi/31/Lubiana-Ljubljana-.htm * http://www.autostazionetrieste.it/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=15&Itemid=0 *
