	Ostuni Transportation - Italy Magazine Forums
		I originally wanted to rely on public transportation (trains and buses) to get around to see Alberobello and Lecce, but from the information I am getting it looks like it would be much easier to rent a car.
		Most of the train stations in the area (Ostuni, San Vito dei Normanni) are not actually in the towns at all....both Ostuni and San Vito stations are quite a way from the Town Centres so I suspect a taxi from station to where you are staying...there may be good bus links tho'...I'll ask.
		When we were there in June we hired a car because we were told the public transport system particularly buses is not that reliable, also we were staying in a very rural location near Cisternino so a car was essential.

		Italy has moved slowly, however, on implementing needed structural reforms, such as lightening the high tax burden and overhauling Italy's rigid labor market and over-generous pension system, because of the current economic slowdown and opposition from labor unions.
