Thanks! Can I get a little help deciphering it? Looking mostly for if/how the schedule varies with different days of the week.

Rachel,

Can I get a little help deciphering it? Looking mostly for if/how the schedule varies with different days of the week.

When you check the schedule for the 131R A Siena to Firenze
You'll see the following :

  • "Feriale Lun - Sab" = Weekday Monday - Saturday

At the bottom of the schedule you see various keys such as:

  • L) Escluso SAB = Excludes Saturday

  • Sa) Si effettua: SAB = Effective Saturday

  • RAP = speedy route

Let's pretend you want to travel on a weekday (Monday through Friday) morning sometime between 7AM and 11AM.
Looking at the schedule linked above, you can depart Siena (on Via Tozzi- buses depart from Piazza Gramsci) at 7:10, 7:55, 8:50, 9:10, & 10:10 (see page 2 for this time)

If you want to travel on Saturday (from Siena to Firenze), then the times available are the ones marked with a "SAB": 8:10, 9:10, 10:10 and so on.

If you want to travel from Siena to Firenze on a Sunday (or Holiday), then you'll need to refer to the "Festivo" schedule ( see page 4 on link given above) and the first bus departs Siena at 11:10.

You can buy your bus tickets at the bus station a day or two prior to taking your day trip.

Hope this helps!
