The best way to get around in the city is using the bus, subway or tram lines. The metro consists of two lines (A and B), which goes across the old town rather quickly. Buses run from 5:30 am to midnight. After this time they begin the night runs as shown at the stops. The subway began to circulate at 5:20 and end at 23:30. A ticket for the entire network (75 minutes by bus + 1 Metro run) costs 1.5 Euro. Tickets for bus and subway can be purchased at vending machines, bars, tobacco shops and kiosks at the bus terminal. After 24:00 you can buy airline tickets on night buses. Tickets are also available daily, weekly, and monthly.
