Find train tickets →Bari Centrale station → Bed & Breakfast La Casa Particular (via Nicolò Putignani stop of via Piccinni)

Bari Centrale bus stop (Piazza Aldo Moro) → Best Western Executive Business Hotel (Via Zara / Via Capruzzi stop)

Bari Karol Wojtyła Airport (BRI) → Bed & Breakfast La Casa Particular (via Nicolò Putignani)
