Getting around Berlin/transport options
Berlin is a well-connected city offering buses and trams as well as underground and light-rail trains. Public transport is fairly straightforward to navigate in Berlin and it's the best way to get around.
Ride sharing apps, like Uber, and taxi services are available but we recommend getting familar with the public transport system as this is the most cost effecitve method of travel.
Berlin is also very walkable, and many of the most popular attractions are nearby each other (especially in Mitte) so you can cover a lot of ground walking.
