City tours, excursions and tickets in Haarlem and surroundings
Moving around in Netherlands - transportation
The infrastructure of public transport in the country is developed at the top level. Buses, trams and trolleybuses are very popular among tourists. Trains or ferries are often used as intercity transport. Transport in the city always runs on time. The biggest problem may be the choice of the option to pay for trip. Tickets can be bought from drivers or conductors, but it’s better to do that in advance, so you can save. Tickets are sold at any newsstand. The whole territory of the country is divided into several zones. Each ticket allows to take transport within the paid zone without any limit. Tourists rarely use subway, since underground branches often bypass the most visited public and cultural centers of cities. In general, there should not be any problems with transport in the Netherlands.
