Transportation in Ljubljana is provided with buses and taxis. You can also rent a car if you want to have a quick and effortless travel to the airport.
You can go to the airport at any time of day with a taxi that you can easily find in almost every part of the city. It may be advantageous to bargain about the fare before getting on a taxi because taxis compete with each other in order to get the customer.
If you choose to travel to the airport by bus, you should take the bus route 28 from the terminal or private buses belonging to Alpetour. If you are flying at the weekend, you should know that the buses have less services. You can get information about the routes and schedules from the electronic public transportation timetables.
Car rental companies offer affordable, high quality and comfortable vehicles for their passengers. In addition, they provide convenience for delivering the rented car at the airport. Nevertheless, you may not choose this option because taxis are available 24 hours a day and buses run during the majority of the day.
In addition to the flight services, the airport also offers services that will meet all needs of the passengers. The passenger who arrive at the airport can buy gifts, exchange money, eat something or chat with friends over the internet.

If you are to the airport at a later time, it might be a better idea to take advantage of taxis or rental vehicles to reach Port Louis or other destinations.
It’s possible to reach many points in Mauritius directly if you have your own means of transportation. You can take the A10 once you’ve left the terminal to reach Mahebourg that is 6km away from Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam Airport, or you can reach the capital, Port Louis in around one hour by taking the M2. It’s around 40km away so getting here from the airport takes a little longer. There are alternatives offered to reach the city such as taxis, car rental and buses.
There’s a taxi information desk at the airport where you can inquire about getting to Port Louis or elsewhere. The taxi ride to Port Louis takes around 45 minutes and it’s a quick alternative when compared with buses. It’s strongly advised that you decide on the price of the journey before you get in the taxi and haggle a little if it’s necessary. If you do this then the comfortable and quick journey won’t impact on your budget as much.
There are buses from Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam Airport that go all the way to Port Louis city centre. This usually takes around 1 hour. The buses leave every 30-60 minutes. Taking the bus from the airport is inexpensive compared with taking a taxi, especially during the day. Another disadvantage, besides the longer time, is that you might have to wait for up to an hour for a bus, compared to the comfort of getting on a taxi as soon as you land and being on your way. You can buy a ticket from the bus driver with the local currency. If you only have dollars or euros then it’s also possible to use these currencies for the payment. It might be more difficult to transport your luggage with the bus but on the other hand it's a fifth of the cost of taking a taxi. So if you’re travelling by yourself, or on a budget, then this option is the clear winner.
There are many car rental agencies at the airport terminal such as ABC, Avis, ADA, Hertz, Sixt, Budget, Europcar and First. It’s practical to rent a car if you want to travel to more than one or two cities. Once you have your car you can quickly reach Mahebourg by taking the A10 or you can reach the Port Louis by following the M2. In order to pick up your car without any problems you should have internationally acceptable travel and driving license documents with you when you go to a car rental agency. The whole process might be easier if you make a reservation online or over the phone before you arrival.
