How to get from the airport to the city centre?

Getting to the city is very easy, with two buses that go straight from the airport. Make sure you press the stop button before your stop though else the driver will keep going. You’ll see the stops come up at the front of the bus.

If you have luggage and don’t want to go through the hassle of a bus then a taxi is an option. If you do take one though, make sure you agree on a fee beforehand and insist on a receipt. Even locals aren’t overly keen on using the taxis as they have a habit of overcharging.

There is a train around a 20 minute walk from the airport which will take you to the main train station or as far as Italy if you’re not careful so make sure to get off at your stop.
