Airport Transfer - Bari to Lecce?
 

Does anyone have a recommendation for an airport transfer from Bari Airport to Lecce? Unfortunately the timing for taking the train doesn't work well with our arrival time (travelling with my mother, and will already be a long travel day for her), so I'm thinking I'll just suck it up and take a car. Three names that I've found so far are Puglia VIP, Apulia Shuttle & Welcome Pickup. Trip is booked towards the end of April.

Thanks in advance for any reviews or recommendations!

Can't you fly into Brindisi?

We booked a transfer easily but I don’t have that information anymore. It is a direct highway drive. You will love Puglia!

We just caught the airport Pullman bus to Lecce, but understand that might not be your way. I'd look at Bari airport website and choose one.

I could, but our flight to Rome arrives at 10, and the flight to Brindisi doesn't depart until 5:30 - don't want to sit around the airport that long - would be different if I was travelling alone, but I won't be this trip. As a result, I've booked a flight to Bari, with a transfer to Lecce.

I've stayed in Lecce twice so far, and taken a number of day trips to surrounding towns while there. This trip is a (delayed - 2020) birthday gift to my mother, so going to Lecce again as it's one of my favourite places.

Thank you - I hadn't realized that was an option, will definitely check it out!

another good place to start travel searches on is rome2rio

Doesn't your hotel offer airport transfers?

Thanks for this suggestion as well - R2R provided a few additional options for private transfers that I am checking out. Sadly timing for the bus from the airport won't work - that would have been ideal, and inexpensive!

It didn't occur to me to check as it's a small B&B that we'll be staying at. Thank you for mentioning it - I've reached out to them and they've arranged a driver.
