Public Transport - SBB

Public transport is the easiest way to get around Zurich, the city is really well connected with trains, trams and buses. I recommend downloading the SBB App and using the 'Easy Ride' feature. Simply swipe to start before you begin your journey and stop it when you have reached your destination. The app will automatically calculate the most optimal price for you.
