Getting there: There are various bus companies that service the route for and from San Giovanni Rotondo. The most important in selecting which bus company is to know the location of the drop-off at San Giovanni Rotondo as there is more than one bus station.



Red X marks the bus station at Viale Cappuccini. This station is approximately 2-5mins walk to the Sanctuary of Saint Mary our Lady of Grace. Basically, there are more hotels within the vicinity of this bus station.
