Those who want to travel outside the city center may prefer buses, trams or trolleybuses. The city's public transport network is quite well; but the vehicles are a bit old. This is why especially the buses are very slow. Ticket prices are compatible with general European cities. Standard tickets are valid for fifteen minutes after first use.

If you wish, you can buy the tickets that are valid for one hour during weekdays, and 90 minutes on weekends and holidays. The price gap between these tickets and standard tickets is very small. If you plan to stay in the city for a long time, you can also choose special tickets for one, two, three or seven days. After you get into the vehicles, you need to validate your tickets on the relevant machines. Drivers do not sell tickets; do not forget to take your ticket before boarding.

Taxi

Taxis are much more cost-effective in Bratislava compared to Europe in general, if you call by phone. However, if you take a taxi from the streets, the prices can double up.

Unofficial black taxis, which you can come across after arriving at the airport or in the city center, can ask, especially from tourists, for prices much higher than their normal fare. We advise you not to use these vehicles.
