Slovakia - getting around, Slovakia

Displayed:   times.

There are ticket machines at almost every bus/tram stop in the town and at many newsstands. The machines, however, work with Slovak crowns only. As of June 2004, a normal 30 minute ticket costs 18 Sk, a 10 minute ticket costs 14 Sk and 60 minute one 22 Sk. Note however, that during weekends and holidays the 30 minute ticket is valid 45 minutes and the 60 min ticket 90 minutes. You must validate your ticket in the validation machines on the bus after boarding (via any door). The minutes on the ticket refer to official schedule times not actual travel times (do not give in to unfriendly ticket inspectors claiming the contrary).

Bus doors are opened by the driver, tram and trolleybus doors, however, usually have to be opened by yourself by pushing a green lit button outside at the door.
