airport-salento-brindisi-gates

If you arrive in Salento by plane the airport of reference is the Brindisi airport that is called Aeroporto del Salento. It is the airport of reference for southern Puglia and ideal if you want to visit the cities in Salento and in the Valle d’Itria where the Trulli are. While if you want to visit the northern central part of Puglia then it’s better to land at the Bari airport. Right, once you have arrived at the Brindisi airport how do I get to Lecce?
