Zenbus: locate your transport directly Bus routes and shuttles

We strongly advise you to plan your journeys well in advance, especially when returning from the Ile de Ré to La Rochelle (station or airport connections). On bridge weekends and school vacation departure and return days, we advise you not to take the last bus, but one or even two buses before the most suitable time for your connection. Disruptions may be expected, particularly when crossing the bridge during busy periods.
