What you’ll learn
- You'll buy a city transport ticket, validate it and deal with the inspector.
- You'll order a taxi, check the rate and pay by the meter.
- You'll buy a ticket to another city and find your bay and seat.
- You'll find the platform and track and ask about changes and delays.
On city transport you validate your ticket as soon as you get on — inspectors do give fines. In some cities, such as Sofia, you can also tap a bank card on the validator. In a taxi, check the rate sticker on the window and ask for the meter to be switched on — or order a taxi through an app. Intercity buses leave from the bus station ("автогара"
) and trains from the railway station ("гара"
). Rules and prices change — check with the operator.
