There are many taxis in Berlin, with stands at all main stations, airports, hotels and the KaDaWe (the largest department store in Europe). Prices: * Initial fare: 2.50 EUR * Per kilometer: 1.53 EUR * Ride up to 2km: 3,00 EUR

Though parking in the city centre is expensive, Berlin provides wide, long avenues and main roads with civilised traffic, as well as cycling routes which vehicle traffic yields to. Cycle lanes are found especially near Tiergarten park. Rates for car rentals begin at 61 EUR per day (including tax and insurance) or 191 EUR per week.

All busses and trams operate until midnight, but a few run after midnight. Tickets can be purchased from the driver or vending machines. The Berlin Transport Operations (BVG) provides an information centre in the pavilion at Hardenbergplatz, at Tegel and Schönefeld airports and the Turmstrasse U-Bahn station. The standard single fare for buses and trams costs 2,10 EUR, valid for two hours. However, bus drivers only sell day tickets and two-hour tickets.

The express, commuter trains of S-Bahn connect the central city to the furthest suburbs, with service every 20 to 30 minutes during off-peak periods. The S-Bahn also makes stops in the centre of the city, but these are less frequent than those on the U-Bahn or Stadtbahn.
