Brescia Travel Forum

We are arriving on a ryan air flight 9th august into verona/brescia airport.
Can anyone tell us if there is any public transport or reasonable priced
travel to the resort of Salo? The shuttle service seems unavailable online
and private transfers are really expensive.Only a short break and will need to
do return also.Would appreciate any guidance.Thanks,sue.

I am hoping to visit Brescia in june to see the historic buildings. There appears to be a good bus service from our base at Gardone, and the time-table includes stops at Ponte, p'tta Venezia and Terminal SIA.
Can someone tell me which of these would be convenient for the historic centre and whether the area is pedestrian-friendly for an elderly couple?
best wishes
Peter.

I shall be flying into Bergamo( a.15:15) and need to get to Desenzano I would prefer bus. Where can I get travel info on bus and train timetables and if I travel by train is it likely crowded with rush hour commuters?

Thanks for taking the time to answer this posting

Does anyone know roughly how much it will cost for a taxi from Brescia Airport to Sirmione?

Is there any that you can book online in advance?

I need to get to Piazza Duoma in Brescia but I am arriving to the main train station in Verona and have no car - what are the public transport options for getting to Brescia this way?
and I am also travelling from Milan to Verona main train station, starting at Milan airport. please give any advice on how to achieve this?
thanks

Billy16 has been fantastic in finding out various bus and train details for travelling from Brescia airport to Salo. He was unsure of the cost of a bus from Desenzano to Riva, does anybody out there have an idea of the cost?

Cheers

My partner and I are travelling by Ryanair to Brescia airport in June. I've been trying to find out if we can get from the airport to the Eurocamp site called Lake Eden, (the Italian name I believe is Campeggio eden Portese di Salo). I've tried the various links suggested in other replies of a similar nature, airport site for buses, www.trenitalia.com for trains but with no luck. The only quote I've managed to find is a taxi at 70 euroes each way which is too expensive. Can anybody tell me if trains or buses run from the airport to Lake Eden or anywhere near please and if it is easy to find/do from the airport.
Cheers

Please could somebody tell me how i can get from Brescia aiport to Garda town? I understand there is a shuttle bus that coincides with Ryanflights that goes to Brescia? Does anyone know the times of these? Can i then get a train from Brescia to Garda town? Roughly how much would this cost for a single?
Also are there buses from Pesceria del Garda to Garda? What are the timesof these? Thankyou!

Hi,

Can anyone tell me how much a taxi would cost or suggest an alternative method?

Hi,

Oh my, I seem to be developing a reputation for side trips tagged onto work... does seem to be the only way to get a break these days.

I will be in northern Italy (brescia) for a work event and figure I'll go a little early (3 days early) so wondering if anyone has suggestions on where to spend my time?

I understand the Italian lake(s) are nearby (lake como of Oceans 12 fame is about the height of my knowledge). Loving the outdoors this sounds like it might be a nice area. Then again, we could spend the time in/around Venice? or ...?

As noted, like the outdoors, good food, nice architecture/pretty villages, etc. Not into Milan-style shopping.

Any suggestions would be really great.
Thanks,

We will be arriving at Verona (Brescia airport(VBS) on a ryan air flight at 7.40 am Saturday. Is there is a bus service to Brescia,and if so, how oten does it run and how long does it take.
Actually we chose this break because of a really good offer from Ryan air but we have no idea what Brescia is like. Help!!
Any idesa on where to stay. Somewhere nice and central but not too expensive. What to do on Saturday evening and Sunday? We like nice cosy restaurants and just wandering around. Thanks everyone

My family (self, wife and 13 year old daughter) wish to travel from Brescia to Paris, mid April 2005. Any suggestions for best way to do so?

I am spending a couple of days in Bergamo and fancied taking in a football match nearby. As I have always liked Roberto Baggio, I was going to go to Brescia v Lecce. Unfortunately, the match has been moved to an evening kick-off (20:30 on Sunday 22nd February).

Does anyone have any information on late night buses or other transport back to Bergamo from Brescia. The last train seems to be at 22:16 which is too early.

Thanks

Steve
