AB The cruise industry has become a significant component of the Mediterranean destinations tourism economyin the last few years. The use of the destination region means increasing the number of mid-distance tripsfrom the port-of-calls to the tourist resources of their tourist hinterland, hence its accessibility should acquirea relevant role for its enhancement and viability. The development of a sustainable model of tourist mobilityrequires analysing the potential use of public transport by cruise passengers in the hinterland. This paperproposes a model of estimated times using the Google platform to compare public transport with thetraditional tourist bus and car. The results confirm the potential of the regionalization of the main cruisedestinations and recommend promoting the use of the bicycle for tourist use as a key strategy to increase theuse of public transport.
