How to reach Scuola Normale Superiore

By air

The Pisa Airport is near the city centre (about 2 km).Scuola Normale Superiore (henceforth SNS) can be reached from the Airport with the city bus "LAM Rossa" in the direction "torre - S. Jacopo" (Compagnia Pisana Trasporti). The bus terminal is just off the departures’ side. Get off immediately after crossing the bridge over the river Arno, called "Ponte Solferino", and walk from there for about 10 minutes (walking path from the bus stop to SNS). Tickets can be purchased at the newspaper kiosk or from the automatic machine at the terminal. As an alternative, take a taxi from the airport (+39.050.541600); the trip costs about 15 euros.

The next closest airport is Florence Airport. For people landing there, the suggestion is to take a taxi to the train station "Firenze Rifredi" (not to be confused with "Firenze Santa Maria Novella", which is the main station). From there one finds trains to Pisa more than once per hour.Other possible airports are those of Genoa and Rome. See below as for reaching SNS from the Pisa train station.

By train

The main station in Pisa is “Pisa Centrale”, about 1,4 km from SNS.
Please Note: Intercity and Eurostar trains require obligatory seat reservation. Train tickets must be date-stamped before boarding in the date-stamp machines located in all Italian stations.

SNS can be reached from the station by bus (Compagnia Pisana Trasporti). The bus stop is just outside the station on the right handside; tickets can be purchased at the newspaper kiosk or from the automatic machine at the bus stop. Take anyone of the busses in the direction of the city center (n. 2, 4, 13, LAM Verde), get off at “Pacinotti 2” and walk from there for about 5 minutes (walking path from the stop to SNS). As an alternative, take a taxi (+39.050.541600); the trip costs about 10 euros.The third option is to walk to SNS in about 20-25 minutes (walking path).
