Berlin
Transport - Getting around Berlin
The Berlin public transport system is
efficient, if expensive, and the combination of buses, trams,
ferries, the U-Bahn (underground) and S-Bahn (commuter rail)
reaches every part of the sprawling city and its surrounds. The
U-Bahn and S-Bahn are the best ways of getting around; buses cover
the parts of the city that cannot be reached by train, and East
Berlin has a network of modernised, pre-war trams. One type of
ticket is valid on all forms of transport and fares are divided
into three colour-coded tariff zones. A number of passes are
available, including daily, weekly or monthly tickets. The
Berlin Welcome Card is valid for 72 hours and
gives unlimited travel for an adult and three children, plus
discounts at many museums, theatres and tourist attractions.
Driving in Berlin is easier than in most big cities, but in general
is still not recommended, as traffic is heavy and parking
difficult. Taxis are plentiful, but it is cheaper to hail one in
the street than to call ahead at one of the many call stands around
the city. Cycling is also recommended, especially in West Berlin
which is well-equipped with cycle paths, and trains have special
cars where bicycles can be carried.
