For the Bicycle-less - Public Transport
The public transportation system in Germany is reliable. You’ll be sure to reach your destination in larger cities by using the bus, the streetcars or the subways, or a combination thereof. And you can definitely count on one thing: the freedom your own car might offer will soon be severely limited by the incredible amount of rolling metal you’ll find on local streets. Traffic jams are common, parking spots aren’t. And high parking fees have made many a driver regret the decision to use the car.
Tickets
If you use public transportation frequently, you should get a weekly or monthly pass. Using these are less expensive and mean you don’t have to buy a new ticket each time you step on the bus, streetcar or subway. During peak hours, buses and trains run frequently. Later in the evenings, waiting times get longer. After midnight and into the early morning, trains often don’t run at all, or only very infrequently. Therefore, for those who don’t enjoy a late-night walk, keep in mind when the last train or bus runs.
Going by Taxi
Taxis are also a possibility. You can order one by telephone or look for one at a taxi stand. They’re comfortable modes of transport, but not the cheapest ones.
