For many travelers, the bus remains the most reliable and cost-effective method for this trans-European journey. With an average trip duration of around 12 hours and 15 minutes (735 minutes), the route is designed to be efficient while offering passengers a chance to see the changing landscapes of Central and Southeastern Europe.
