Ljubljana to Vienna by bus/train?
Posted: Thu January 19, 2012 12:02 AM UTC
Hello, everyone!

Does anyone know if there are buses running from Ljubljana to Vienna (Dunaj in Slovene language)? I did some superficial research but couldn't find much... Maybe from any other city in the country, since it's so small?

I checked the trains but if the schedules I found on DB Bahn are accurate, then most of them don't work that well for me. I would either have to lose a whole day with luggage in Vienna or I would risk losing my flight from Vienna airport if the trains are delayed...

Bahn.de is indeed accurate and reliable for trains both inside and outside Germany. There will be no services on your route which are not listed on bahn.de

I am a little confused by your comment about trains as there are departures Ljubljana>Vienna (Wien) roughly every hour through the day.

The Slovenian long-distance bus site is

http://www.veolia-transport.si/

You can find international timetables on

http://www.veolia-transport.si/Vozni_redi_in_vozovnice/Vozni_redi/Mednarodni_vozni_redi/index.html

The Vienna service leaves from Maribor (a couple of hours by train from Ljubljana).

Buses are no less prone to delays as trains, of course (traffic congestion, accidents, breakdowns etc). So perhaps you might prefer to spend your last night in Vienna to be sure of catching your flight?

Zdravo,
I suggest going by train, it's more comfortable and you have more space for luggage and legs.
On Slovenske zeleznice site here is the schedule (Ljubljana, or Maribor) of international trains and duration and price:

Have a good trip!
