Buses and trams
Where to buy tickets?
Transport tickets can be purchased in many different ways and places:
- via various apps, such as JakDojadę, SkyCash, moBILET etc. – it is also possible to but transportation tickets via your bank’s app (e.g. Millenium Bank, Santander Bank…)
- at ticket machines at bus stops or on buses/tram → in majority of them you can pay by card, but there are still some old machines on the trams that only takes cash , so it is good to have with you couple of coins
There is no difference between tickets for trams and busses in Kraków – you can use the same ticket for both.
We have two types of tickets: full-price (“normalny”) and discounted (“ulgowy”). In general, students are eligible to purchase discounted tickets, if they have a valid student ID with them. Children below 7 years old can travel free of charge, as well as primary school pupils.
It is also possible to buy a seasonal ticket – please find more information about the time frames and prices here.
