Saving Money in Berlin: The Berlin Welcome Card

By , About.com GuideJanuary 14, 2009

Follow me on:

If you want to save money on public transportation and sightseeing in Berlin, the Berlin Welcome Card might be the right thing for you.

This special pass allows you unlimited travel on the Berlin public transportation system (called BVG), and gives you discounts on many museums, monuments, and events.
You can buy the Berlin Welcome Card for 48 or 72 hours, and starting January 15th, it is also available for 5 days.

Have you used the Berlin Welcome Card or other city passes in Germany? Let us know what you think and if they are their money's worth.

I had no idea this card existed. I have used something similar in New York City. Next time I am in Berlin I will grab one for sure.

I wonder what kind of discounts at restaurants you get. I’ll check it out and let you know what I find.
