Getting around in Berlin

Advantages: Cheap, efficient and reliable
Disadvantages: None at all

...show the ticket, which makes getting on and off the various vehicles much quicker than in this country. Occasionally someone will come around and check them, so have it handy. Buses on the major routes are sometimes crowded, but they are clean and run frequently. The S-Bahn is more reliable, but there aren't that many of these. For longer journeys use the U-Bahn network, which criss-crosses the city much as the London system does but is much cleaner! ... Read review

Advantages: Clear info
Disadvantages: Bad tourist route

The bus system in Berlin has gone to be envied by the United Kingdom surely. After spending only a short time in Berlin the map was easy to adjust to, with regular services, except the tourist bus, I think its the number ten, because too many people wanted it and it was too infrequent. The electronic display on buses telling you the next station is simple but perfect, I don't know if they have them anywhere else in the UK but not Doncaster. This ... Read review

Advantages: Cheap, Freedom to go where you want, Get to meet local people
Disadvantages: None

...attitude of the German people. Getting around the city is made both incredibly easy and fun for you. You can buy a TAGESCARTE, which is the equivalent to a London travel card. This enables you to travel on the buses, U-bahn (underground trains), Ferries and some S-bahn (overland trains).

Here you can wander around the sleepy village, I can recommend any of the restaurants by the waterside. From here, you can jump on a ferry, which depart every 30 ... Read review

Advantages: Easy to use, good service, plenty od luggage space
Disadvantages: you may need to speak a minimum amount of german if asking for directions.

The bus system in Berlin is excellent. It is easy to find where you want to go, people are very helpful, and willing to give clear directions if you do get a bit off the beaten track, and the buses in use are very easy to board. There is a large space available for luggage or to stand with buggies. I would advise that anyone travelling to Berlin who is concerned about travelling around the city by bus should not make this a major issue for concern ... Read review

Advantages: not very expensive
Disadvantages: drivers mostly speak no english

In Berlin are a super public transport system. Every 5 minutes a bus cames to travell people all over the world through Berlin. A ticet costs 3,90 DM an that's not very expensive. The busses are very new and tall, but not many people use such busses. I don't know why. I think that trains also be new. With the bus you came to all important places, for exemple the "Brandenburger Tor", which is in the middle of Berlin. When you are in Berlin, I would ... Read review
