Buses to and from Bergerac Airport (EGC)

Bergerac Airport is commonly referred to as the Bergerac Dordogne Périgord Airport, and has the official airport code of EGC. It is located just a few kilometres from the city of Bergerac, and in the Aquitaine region of France, towards the mid-western side of the country. The airport is also known as the Bergerac-Roumanière Airport, as it is situated nearby Roumanière, and it lies in the Dordogne department of France. Bergerac is a very small airport, handling only around 300,000 passengers per annum, and therefore, transport options are limited. There are no Bergerac Airport buses available, but taxis can be taken to reach the bus station in the city.

Bergerac Airport consists of a single terminal building for all flights offered by the airline companies of Flybe, Ryanair, Transvania.com, Jet2.com and Twin Jet, which mainly arrive from destinations within the United Kingdom. The terminal is generally a large hall, with facilities for arriving passengers on one-end and departure facilities on the other. Within the airport, there is a restaurant, cash machine and multi-service store, as well as baby-changing areas and travel agencies. The terminal is also accessible for disabled passengers. Since that there are no Bergerac Airport buses, passengers will need to travel by taxi to the city of Bergerac, or any other nearby town. Alternatively, the Bergerac Airport car hire companies offer a wide range of vehicles for hire.

Passengers who wish to travel by bus will find the taxi rank just outside the airport’s arrival area, and the short journey to the Bergerac bus station will cost between fifteen and twenty Euro. From the Bergerac bus station, various buses travel to nearby towns, and around the communes of the city. The smaller towns of the Dordogne region are quite easily explored on foot, while the larger cities, such as Bordeaux, located to the west of Bergerac, offer fairly extensive bus transport options.
