Getting Around Dro
You need a shuttle bus from BGY airport to Bergamo city station (10 mins, 2.30 EUR) then take Regionale to Verona, switch to a Rovereto train. Slower but cheaper than direct transfers. Buy a 'Trenord' ticket app on your phone to skip queues.
Agritur Oltra is 3 km from Dro centre so walking isn't doable for groceries. Save money by calling the same driver who drops you from the station for a return trip. Cash only, always confirm price before riding.
When you get off at Dro, walk up Via Roma for 10 mins to the agritur — the bus doesn't stop right at the door. Bus tickets from Rovereto's tabacchi or the self-service machine at the station.
Book with a local driver like NCC Dro or Taxi Riva — they'll meet you at arrivals with a name board. Costs spike 20% after 10 PM. For a cheaper shared ride, try GoOpti, but expect to wait up to 45 mins at the airport.
