Bus rides in beautiful Germany can actually be relatively cheap. If you know where to buy your tickets and all, that is. It's the same case with the German train rides and all. A nice tip I got is that you could ask for discounted tickets from the public transport system company of Germany. Looking for their local offices is a good thing to do. But in order for you to get more discounted tickets, you should be a frequent user of the German public transport system. Next thing you have to do is know just how exactly what is there to be done so as to save on German train rides. Yes, saving on bus tickets and on train tickets are totally different things!
