Treviso has a small international airport, which is served by Ryanair. A bus run by local firm ACTT (number 6) stops on Via Noalese outside the airport and runs to Treviso railway station. Tickets cost €1 if you buy them inside the airport, or €2 from the driver.

Entering Treviso’s beautiful historical centre is little complicated. Once I remember it to be easy, but now no more. A “ring street” surrounding the heart of the city was built, which is a nightmare!
Be aware of it while arriving there by car. You cannot enter the historical centre of Treviso directly, you must drive around the ring until you reach the right gate. All signs are in Italian of course, and they are quite difficult to understand. There is always a lot of traffic around the ring, so be aware because there are frequently car accidents. If you are not sure which is the right exit you are looking for, follow the “Tutte le direzioni” sign (= to all directions). If you need to go to the railway station coming from the motorway A27 exit, you need to make almost the whole round before finding the right gate.

As in other Italian cities, a bus fare in Treviso costs EUR 1- and the ticket is valid for 75min from the validation.
Piazza dei Signori is free of traffic but the buses are stopping in the nearby Piazza del Duomo.
The tickets can be bought from the hotels reception.

I found the taxis in Treviso not as expensive as in other cities in Italy and at the end they were the only convenient way of transportation.
As the buses usually run until 9:30 pm, in case you want to spend more time in town, the taxi is the only option to go back to the hotel.

Only half an hour by train separates Treviso from Venice.
Today, due to its location and the existence of the airport, Treviso is an important connection point between different cities in Italy and foreign countries.
The train station is on the southern side of Treviso's old town and close to Piazza dei Signori.
For the travelers in transit, the station offers luggage boxes and easy access to the town.

The small San Giuseppe Airport is located in via Novalese 63, 3 km away of the city walls.
This airport is mainly used by low cost and charter flights to and from London (Ryan Air), Paris, Canarie Islands and Amsterdam as it is only half an hour away from Venice.
There is a direct bus from the train station to the airport, but I always prefered to take a taxi which, considering also the short distance, is convenient.
The only problem is at the arrival to Treviso, as there are no taxis in the airport and you have to order by phone.
