Getting around by bus and coach Siena

A word of advice! It is better to use the Rapida bus (No. 131R) rather than the Ordinaria, as it is non-stop between Florence (via Luigi Alamanni, in front of Santa Maria Novella station) and Siena (piazza Antonio Gramsci), so faster (about 1 hour 15 minutes). The terminus, piazza Gramsci - via Federigo Tozzi, is located in the heart of Siena's city centre. Tickets can be purchased either at the ticket office (in the Lizza underground passage in Siena, in Santa Maria Novella station in Florence), or in advance online, or on board but with an additional charge.
