I am flying into Pisa on Monday night late so I am going to stay in Pisa that night. The next day after a quick look around Pisa I will get the train to Bolgna via Florence and stay in Bologna Tuesday night. Is there going to be many staying in Bologna that night, Any recommendations on Hotels etc for Bologna Tuesday night.

Now the decision do I stay in Bologna Wednesday night or do I go for Rimini on the Wednesday night.

I am going to Stay in Florence on the Thursday and fly back to Dublin from Pisa on the Friday.

Staying in Hotel Regina ( right in centre of Bologna...next to railway stn ) not sure if it's near your hotel.

We are also hoping to go on the pre-arranged "Bus trip"....still waiting for some of our learned colleagues to let us know final details.

This works out about 25 Euro ea. roughly. How does that seem?:confused:

They can do a 56 seater if we can get the numbers. May work out cheaper, I dont know.
There are 2, possibly 4 in my party. And I know Bring Back Mick has 3.
If we can get up to 24 I'll look into making the booking.

I'm also waiting on a reply from another coach company, so may have better deal!

Hi Supa........any further news on the "Bologna Bus"??:confused: :confused:

I only got back from Cyprus yesterday, so havent been near my pc.

I dont think I'll be booking the bus for another 5-6 weeks.

Including your party we have 10 people on the bus with at least another 4 likelys' that I know of. So we only need another 10 passengers and we're in business!

I'll keep you up to date on the numbers, but you can be pretty sure that we will have something booked by the end of Nov.

Saint Tom, the coach firm have told me we can only have the coach for 8 hours as thats a drivers full working day.
With us needing 3 hours to get there and back and 2 hours for the match, this only leaves us 3 hours to spend in San Marino.
I think the 3 hours are best spent before the game not after, ie. looking around, something to eat, few beverages. whatever you fancy really.
I'm assuming it will be a night game, in which case it will be after 9 when the game finishes and gone 11 by the time we get back to Bologna.
Let me know if this suits you and if you still want your name down.
Cheers, SS.

I've been trawling through these pages and I'm getting more confused by the minute. Could anyone tell me the easiest way of getting to San Marino please? Not sure whether we fly to Bologna, Rimini or somewhere else. Cheers

I think there's a lot of different options. I'm flying into Milan, from what I hear there's a really good train service in Italy. Don't think you'll get flight into Rimini in February, seems to be a seasonal Airport

We're going Ryanair STN to Bologna Forli then staying in Rimini, don't think it will be a problem organising a bus from there to San Marino :D :ball:

Cheers for that. There aren't any flights left to Bologna, so I think we'll be going to Milan (although it seems very far away) and flying back from Bologna. ;)

Here is some info I found on a Rimini - San Marino bus, we are also waiting on the winter timetable from the tourist office, don't know if this bus is the same one. I can't get the english version, when i click on the flag it doesn't work :rolleyes:

Click on the "Autolinee locali - Servizi nell'area del Riminese" at the bottom right hand side of the screen.
Then click on Rimini-San Marino, near the top of the page above the lovely colourful map :D
This should bring up a timetable.
Think it is about 3 euro single, fine for getting there, but the last bus coming back is about 1800! :eek:
