Once in Murcia, you will have the choice of taking the bus, train, or car hire. Bus transportation is provided by LatBus, which operates both the urban and interurban bus services. The bus station is located on the western side of town, near Museo Salzillo. Local bus services include Cartagena Alicante, Orihuela, and Lorca. Alsa also has daily buses going to Granada (3.5 hours), Valencia (4 hours), and Madrid (5 hours).

If you would rather take the train, RENFE (La Red de los Ferrocarriles Españoles) is situated south of the Rio Segura. Up to five trains travel daily from Murcia to Madrid (4.5 hours) and trains also operate hourly to Lorca and Alicante (1.5 hours).

The Tramway is another alternative to get around the area. Currently there is about a mile and a half of service available but construction is currently taking place for the production of 4 more lines.
