Getting Around
Getting around in Gothenburg is fairly simple thanks to the city's organised layout. The city centre is pedestrian-friendly, and walking is considered the best way to take in all the sights. Bicycles are also available for hire, and a network of bike paths make it a pleasant and convenient mode of transport. Visitors can hire bikes via app or from shops, tourism centres or many hotels and hostels, especially in central areas.
Public transportation is made up of a network of buses, trams and ferries. Tickets are sold at shops, transport service centres, and Pressbyran shops and online. Single tickets are also available on trams; however, busy travellers might find the one, three or 30-day tickets, or the Go City pass to be more economical options.
Bicycle and tram traffic can make driving in Gothenburg a bit confusing, and renting a car is generally only necessary for trips outside the city centre. Taxis are available by phone; Uber and Lyft are options as well.
