Transportation / Walking on tour
Round-trip flights arrive in Berlin and depart from Munich (or Vienna
on extension). Included transportation is by private motorcoach. In
your free time, you may wish to explore the main cities by public
transportation.
Berlin’s very efficient transportation system
(BVG) consists of buses, trams, the U-Bahn (underground trains) and the
S-Bahn (elevated trains). A BVG standard ticket is valid for two hours
of transportation, including transfers. During your stay, you might
consider purchasing a 24-hour ticket or the three-day Welcome Card.
Munich’s
transportation system (MVV) is top-notch, an all-inclusive combination
of trams, buses, U-bahn and S-bahn. Purchase tickets based on time of
validity from newspaper stands, vending machines or the drivers. Most
of the major attractions lie within the inner-city blue zone.
Vienna
has one of Europe’s most efficient transportation systems. You can
purchase tickets in singles or in bulk for S-bahn (above ground),
U-bahn (underground), tram and bus lines. The waiting time for trains
and subways is usually no more than five to 10 minutes.
