Discover new things by bus!

We are challenging everyone to get out and Discover something new by bus this spring and summer. We are all hoping for better weather, but just being out in the open air (even if the sun’s not shining) can do wonders for our health and well-being.  Plus travelling by bus means you are also doing your bit for the environment and helping to ease congestion in the area.

Don’t forget all single bus fares are just £2 until at least 30th June 2024 or there are savings to be made with a dayrider or group dayrider if travelling with friends and family. Check out our ticket options here. Dogs are welcome on board (paws on the floor please and not on the seats) and up to two children under 5 can go for free with an adult.

So what could you Discover in and around Southampton?

Open spaces?

Visit one of Southampton's many parks as a great way to enjoy the outdoors. Whether you're taking a stroll with the dog or having a family picnic, get out and about and make the most of the warmer weather. Plus by taking the bus, you're doing your bit to improve air quality in the area.

A new genre?

If you're going to a gig, why not get there by bus? From hard rock to smooth jazz, keep an eye out for the show for you! Southampton has many live music venues accessible by bus so sit back and let us do the driving.
