About Isilines

Isilines was founded in 2015 during the liberalisation of the French long-distance bus market by the Transdev Group. The French multinational Transdev is one of the world's most renowned operators of public transport and a member of the European network Eurolines. The red Isilines buses carried passengers across 29 routes, a truly comfortable way of travelling to the big cities, but also to winter and summer holiday destinations in France.
