Which means of transport do you use usually?
Berlin is a city of great transport system. It has two types of subway: S-Bahn and U-Banh, trams and buses go all over around the city. And really good point is everything comes just on time. Ok, we have small problem here – a lot of reconstructions take place some time. But you easily can switch one to another because usually they are all connected somehow, especially in the city center. You need to get used to the system and how it works, but when you learn everything it will be really easy to get any where.
Also Berlin has good system of bicycle roads.
Why do you use it?
I use public transport because first I don’t have a car, but I don’t care about it, because in such a city as Berlin it is even easier to go with tram or subway.
Second is when you go with a car you can’t see as much as when you go with public transport. For example you can have a good tour just using ring subway, because it doesn’t go underground but across the city.
Which is your favorite means of transport?
But my favorite type of transport is my bicycle. Love it).
Why?
I love to travel with my bicycle because I can stop where ever I want. it’s cheaper, just by a it one time, you can buy a second hand at one of the floh-markets. And bicycle roads are everywhere. You can park your bike near subway station or go with it there, but in that case you need to buy extra ticket for bike.

Which means of transport do you use usually?
Bicycle and train
Why do you use it?
I live in Wageningen, The Netherlands. Here the life goes smooth and cycling is part of the country’s culture. Every place is reachable by bicycle and the infrastructure is meant for that. Is fast, cheap and you can have time to think on your ideas while getting from the point A to point B, while in a car drive would be a stressful situation because of the traffic, etc. Cycling is fun and makes everyday life more convenient.
Which is your favorite means of transport?
Train, and bicycle for European cities mostly.
Why?
Seeing the landscape (urban or rural), listening to some nice beats while in the train. Having time to relax and enjoy the ride is what makes travelling by train such a nice experience. Delays, and related issues can be tough but at the end its easier than other means of transport such car or plane. When arrived to my destination, taking a bicycle completes the experience because is stress-free to move around in European cities which many times are small and with a lot of turns and narrow streets. I like to travel by these means because seeing and enjoying my music is essential to make moving from A to B fun.

The Royal Rajasthan on Wheels is designed in a royal style to experience a slice of royalty and enjoy a royal feast onboard. The train takes the customer through a sven day exploration starting at New Delhi to various impressing highlights of India. A dedicatd team of stuff is included to ensure complete customer satisfaction!
Now Canada followed that concept and launched the project “Rocky Mountaineer”, which offers a royal feeling, too, during travelling through a wonderful nature.
That way of travelling seems to be the complete opposite of backpacking through a country’s landscape. What type of travelling do you prefer? Would you like to walk, go by bus and sleep in a tent or hostel or would you book the luxury train???

Which means of transport do you use usually?
I usually take the tram or buses.
Why do you use it?
At the moment I am using replacement buses because there are lots of road works during summer time.
Which is your favorite means of transport?
I really like taking the train for longer distance journeys.
Why?
Because it’s much more comfortable than going by car – as long as the trains are on time. I usually read a lot or listen to my podcasts while traveling – things I wouldn’t be able to do while driving.
