Geneva - Getting Around
Public Transport
It is illegal to board a bus or tram without a pre-purchased or validated ticket. Coin-operated vending machines (where tickets can also be validated) are situated at all bus and tramway stops. These provide a variety of tickets including the Tout Gèneve ticket, which allows unlimited travel for one hour, or cheaper Saut de Puce tickets for three-stop trips or one lake crossing (maximum 15 minutes) on a Mouette boat. Multiple tickets are also available.
Every visitor will receive a Geneva Transport Card upon check-in at their hotel, valid for the entire duration of their stay, covering buses, tramways, boats and trains in Geneva, together with a voucher booklet offering price reductions for restaurants, excursions and shops. You can buy a one-day unireso pass for buses, trams, trains and Mouette boats at CFF stations, TPG sales offices and tourist information offices.
Taxis
The fare is shown on the meter, which includes a tip and VAT (rates rise at night and on Sundays and holidays). A tip and VAT are included in the price; however, it is customary for customers to round up the fare to the nearest Franc.
