Don’t know why I watched this, because I live in Berlin for twenty years now and I am German. The TH-cam way I guess. But for those who come to visit this city, this video is really useful, correct and on point. Really love to see someone who puts that much effort in this and thereby helps people! Greetings from Berlin!
Hey! Thanks for much for the nice comment. The quality could have indeed been much better, as it was my very first video. But hearing comments like this is inspiring. Have a lovely day :)
@@ExpatCaptures ja, ich spreche leider nicht Troll. Danke für die nette Antwort von vor sieben Monaten, hab sie eben erst gesehen. Wunderschönen Tag noch!
2024 update for everone watching this: - the airport Berlin-Schönefeld (SXF) doesn't exist any longer, it has been integrated into the BER airport as Terminal 5, which currently is not in use - please pay attention to the point about entering a vehicle and let the exiting people out first. there is already enough pepople ( not that many, but enough to notice at least) who try to almost tackle their way in as soon as the doors open, which is fairly annoying - showing the ticket to the bus driver is not mandatory any longer, so as long as you have a valid ticket, just hop on - if a bus or a tram is really crowded so getting to any but the front door seems like a hustle, it is usually okay to exit via the front door besides that; man, that was probably the best video about our public transportation system i've ever watched. really well done. i am really happy the city grew on you so much. have a good one :>
Your video helped me a lot when I was in Berlin last year. I was researching on public transport in every European country that I was planning on visiting, and your video explaining Berlin public transport was exactly what I wanted. I would be lost for sure if I didn't watch your video. Thank you so much
This video is the most organized and informative one. I'm traveling Berlin for the first time, and I'm pretty confident in using public transport there now. Thank you for making such amazing video. Keep up the good work. 👍
I am a German myself and live in Berlin. Nevertheless, I really enjoyed watching this video because I'm a public transport fan. The video was very well done and the information was correct. I think this video is a great help for Berlin tourists. This video is very nice. Greetings from Berlin
Thank you. This was helpful. One note I would like to add for tourists is, if you have a validated German rail card, Interrail or Eurail train pass for the duration of your visit to Berlin, the S-Bahn, RE, RB, ICE, EC and EC trains are all covered by the passes. The U-bahn trains, buses, trams and ferries are NOT covered by rail passes. In fact the train rule applies to all of German cities with S-Bahn services.
Good explanation of using the tickets. I recommend tourist which arrive from BER and stay for couples of days AB ticket wih an extention fare. I've been working in customer service for the Berliner S Bahn since January 2024.
@@BerivanCakan-z1i It depends what you would like to do in Berlin If you need only a ticket from the airport to the city centre than a ABC single ticket is ok. So I don't know your plans.
I'm in Berlin now and this was priceless as I don't speak German and this is my first visit, thank you and great job. if I could give you a Million Thumbs up I would.
You're welcome my friend. Enjoy your time here and feel free to check out my food/supermarket videos if you want to learn about some unique foods whilst you're here. Appreciate you!
Great, great video. You are very good at describing in details. Berlin is in my list to travel after covid. I know that I will definitely watch this video many times before traveling. Thank you very much keep up the good work
I am completely new to the city and this video has me helped greatly! Thank you for elaborating on the tickets and where to obtain them. You got my subscription! 😎🤘🏻
I've been in Berlin three times and I agree, it is a wonderful city. The public transportation system is so easy to use and you can go almost anywhere on it. Thanks for the video.
I love and hate Berlin. I was fascinated by the stunning scenery and rich history, but I was overwhelmed by the high cost. I think trainpal's discount coupon saved me.
I'm going to Berlin next year and this video is everything I've been looking for, I feel so much more comfortable now, knowing ll this, thank you so much
I've never been to Germany and particularly Berlin, so much history there, I'm definitely going to take a 3 to 4 day trip there, so looking forward to it
Thank you so much, really informative and straightforward description. I'll be in Berlin in December for the first time and I'm sure your video will prove extremely helpful.
I can't believe how complex this ticket system is. In Sydney we simply tap on and off with a credit card. You don't need to worry about the distance or fare as it's automatically calculated.
Very interesting video! Just moved to Berlin a month ago so I already knew many of the things that you covered. However I wasn't aware that I should show my ticket to the bus driver since at least from my experience nobody does that with double-deckers. Also as a student I thankfully get to travel for free as long as I have my student card with me. Anyway good job and keep the work up!
Thanks so much. Yes nobody really does it, and covid has made it slightly worse because I think sometimes the driver's entrance is even blocked by a soft plastic divider when covid cases are higher. These days are crazy!
Thank you for showing us what the ticket validation machines look like both for DB and for BVG...respectively red/white and yellow. I have searched other transportation videos trying to find these Entwertsmachinen only to find no description or photos of what to look for on the platforms.
Sehr gut. Danke Ron. Well done, it's been a while since I caught the public transport system in Berlin. Definitely things have changed. All the best with your channel. Subbed 👍
Thank you for your video. We had a great time in Berlin. We use your travel tips. Save the fortune on tickets. Had a great time. You explained everything so easily and we got around Berlin so well so quickly. Thank you once again keep making these videos
Mashallah thank you very much! I didn't get lost and robbed again thanks to this video. It feels so good to actually know what to do in Berlin to get from A to B.
Really?! You'll enjoy it for sure. Berlin is amazing! Feel free to check out my supermarket videos and you might be able to pick up some unique snacks you can take back home :)
Hey! Congrats for the great video! In case of the 7 days ticket (weekly), when and how should validate it? And once it is validated, should I validate it again every time I take a bus? Thank you!
Hi Mariano, thanks for watching. Once you validate the ticket, you don't need to validate it again. The ticket will be valid for 7 consecutive days from validation and not 7 individual days.
Great video, explain everything really clearly. I love it, also your sense of humour. Ps do you have also a guide how to use P+R? To visit the centre? Thank you❤
Buying a stock is easy, but buying the right stock without a time-tested strategy is incredibly hard. Hence what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist? I’ve been trying to grow my portfolio of $260K for sometime now, my major challenge is not knowing the best entry and exit strategies... I would greatly appreciate any suggestions..................
I agree , I assumed I had a hang of the market at first, I gained $50k one year and I was super elated, not until I stumbled upon a portfolio-adviser whose been guiding me since the market's been sham after the pandemic, to my utmost surprise I netted a whooping $280K during this dip, that made it clear there's more to the market that we avg joes don't know>
I am guided by is Jenny Pamogas Canaya . I found her on a CNBC interview where she was featured and reached out to her. She has since provided entry and exit points on the securities I focus on. You can look her up online if you care for supervision................
What an amazing informative video!! Can you let me know if I am at airport and want to go to alexander platz should I but A, B zone ticket and extension one . I wont need zone C later. Thanks a million
Very helpful. Thank you. Quick question. Let's say you buy the ABC zone ticket (4.40) at the airport and take the FEX train into Berlin Central Station. If you then need to jump on a tram for a few stops, does the same ticket still cover you (assuming it's still within the 2 hours from when you validated it)?
This has been very helpful. thank you. I went to berlin last year and had so much anxiety using public transportation. I'm pretty sure I forgot to validate. This time I think I know what to do. We are going to try to go to Potsdam from the city center. Any tips on the best way to do that using public transport? Is there a special ticket that will get us there and back in one day? keeping in mind we will be in Berlin using public transport for about 5 days total.
Thank you so much for the video. Also i just did not get about daily ticket. Do I need to stamp it every time when I am going to use the public transport?
thanks for this video! I'm not planning on going to Berlin specifically but this is definitely helpful. is the bus system through the rest of Germany similar to the one in Berlin?
Yes it is! The signs to the U-Bahn, S-Bahn, bus stop symbols and whatnot are all the same in Germany. The only thing that's different would be the public transport companies and potentially the prices. Each city has a local company for that.
@@ExpatCaptures And also sometimes you don´t stamp/validate your ticket because it is valid from the moment you purchase it from the machine in some other regional transport systems.
Don't know if anyone is looking at the comments still. Am heading to Berlin for the first time on Tuesday. What wasn't wholly clear is: if you do get a pass for travel within, say, a week, do you have to validate it just once or before every journey?
Thank you for the video and keep it going!!. I have a question. I will be arriving at the Willy Brandt from Singapore at 7.40am. I have a flight out to Amsterdam early next day. Since the hotel check in opposite the airport is only much later in the afternoon, i was thinking of going for a train ride and walk a little. This is my first overseas trip anyway. I am open for suggestions as long as i am back at the airport hotel by 4pm. Is there a scenic route train ride? I am a little confused about the AB C zone you had mentioned in your video. Since the airport is in Zone C, i am pretty sure that i will need to get the Zone C when i am returning to the airport. But do i need to get the Zone C when i am departing the airport? Thank you for your advice and sorry for my lengthy post.
Very good. I happen to be in Berlin on holiday right now so very useful info. The whole ticket validation thing is quite confusing. Still don’t really get it?!
@@ExpatCaptures it's a tix where u can take all regional trains and public transport (so I heard and bought ;) (and also just arrived in Germany ready to explore :))
I’m going to Berlin in February this year and going to the Leipzig v monchengladbach match and have my match ticket and it says I have free 36 hour travel pass with my match ticketI’m just wondering would that cover going from Berlin to Leipzig ? Thanks can’t wait to come to Germany 🇩🇪 from Scotland
Thank you for this video. It was very informative and clear. If a person is moving to Berlin, do you recommend buying the annual ticket/VBB Eco-Ticket?
Thanks Tim! I don't think there's a difference if you're moving here. For the Eco monthly tickets you can also pay yearly, so it's just a matter of personal preference really.
Thank you for this video, it was very helpful, and it even made me chuckle a few times. I do have a question - BVG offers an extension card for zone C for a 24h ticket, that's 3,70 euro, but can I get a normal extension card that's 1,80 euro if i only need one trip (airport) with my 24 h ticket in AB zone?
Thank you! And yes correct, if you plan to only travel within zone AB+C one time and then only travel within A and B afterwards, then there's no need for you to get a 24-hour Zone C extension ticket. If you plan to travel frequently to and from Zone C within 24 hours, only then does it make sense to get the 24 hour one. Hope that helps :)
@@ExpatCaptures I hope sooo!! Watching some “best places to visit in Berlin” vids at the minute and came across this! The most important thing - transpo!! Thanks a mil!! 😁✨☺️
Thanks for the video! For some reason I had a lot of trouble on the S bahn. Those route placards seem to be hit or miss, and had a lot of trouble figuring out where it was actually going….even with Google maps (which ceases to work underground). Rode 3 wrong trains (apparently).
I'm coming to Berlin from the airport, I saw that the ABC ticket is extended to the airport. Is it worthy tu buy it or only AB ticket with airport-city center round trip apart? Thanks
This was really helpful! Headed to Berlin soon and this definitely helped with navigation anxiety. Is there another way to get to AB without having to use IC from the airport? I'm mapping my route from the airport and it keeps saying I should us IC to transfer to S-Bahn. Any insight is much appreciated!
My pleasure! If the train number on Google Maps starts with RE or RB, you can use a normal ticket for them. You can also take the S-Bahn to get to AB or the city centre.
Omg this is so helpful video. I'm visiting Berlin on 13 th, but I don't know how to go to the Center from Central bus station 😥. Probably I won't have internet in new country
Good luck mate! From the central bus station, there is one U-Bahn station (U2) and one S-Bahn station nearby, so you should be able to get where you want from there :)

2024 update for everone watching this:
- the airport Berlin-Schönefeld (SXF) doesn't exist any longer, it has been integrated into the BER airport as Terminal 5, which currently is not in use
- please pay attention to the point about entering a vehicle and let the exiting people out first. there is already enough pepople ( not that many, but enough to notice at least) who try to almost tackle their way in as soon as the doors open, which is fairly annoying
- showing the ticket to the bus driver is not mandatory any longer, so as long as you have a valid ticket, just hop on
- if a bus or a tram is really crowded so getting to any but the front door seems like a hustle, it is usually okay to exit via the front door

I do have a question - BVG offers an extension card for zone C for a 24h ticket, that's 3,70 euro, but can I get a normal extension card that's 1,80 euro if i only need one trip (airport) with my 24 h ticket in AB zone?
Thank you! And yes correct, if you plan to only travel within zone AB+C one time and then only travel within A and B afterwards, then there's no need for you to get a 24-hour Zone C extension ticket. If you plan to travel frequently to and from Zone C within 24 hours, only then does it make sense to get the 24 hour one. Hope that helps :)
With the welcome ticket and other multi day tickets you only validate them once, correct?
I'm going in two weeks to Berlin. I'm excited and nervous at the same time haha hope i wont get lost or anything :D Thanks for this vid!
You will be fine!!!! I hope you enjoy your time here!
@@ExpatCaptures I hope sooo!! Watching some “best places to visit in Berlin” vids at the minute and came across this! The most important thing - transpo!! Thanks a mil!! 😁✨☺️
If you're into food and more local experiences, don't hesitate to check out my supermarket videos :D take care!!!
how was it?
Thanks really helpful
Thank you so much this was super helpful!
My pleasure Eva!!!
Thanks for the video! For some reason I had a lot of trouble on the S bahn. Those route placards seem to be hit or miss, and had a lot of trouble figuring out where it was actually going….even with Google maps (which ceases to work underground). Rode 3 wrong trains (apparently).
Yeh if it's not the Ring Bahn, then just look at the end station and see if the end station is reflected on Google Maps.
I'm coming to Berlin from the airport, I saw that the ABC ticket is extended to the airport. Is it worthy tu buy it or only AB ticket with airport-city center round trip apart?
Thanks
This was really helpful! Headed to Berlin soon and this definitely helped with navigation anxiety. Is there another way to get to AB without having to use IC from the airport? I'm mapping my route from the airport and it keeps saying I should us IC to transfer to S-Bahn. Any insight is much appreciated!
My pleasure! If the train number on Google Maps starts with RE or RB, you can use a normal ticket for them. You can also take the S-Bahn to get to AB or the city centre.
Omg this is so helpful video. I'm visiting Berlin on 13 th, but I don't know how to go to the Center from Central bus station 😥. Probably I won't have internet in new country
Good luck mate! From the central bus station, there is one U-Bahn station (U2) and one S-Bahn station nearby, so you should be able to get where you want from there :)
