The good planning ensures a fulfilling and enjoyable experience. The buses of the companies that are part of the Ivkoni Group operate with dynamic prices (unless the price is fixed for a certain course, period or promotional activity). This means that the price of the ticket depends on the occupancy of the bus and the date of travel. The earlier you book or purchase your ticket, the greater price advantage you will have.
