Instructions how to use local public transport

Once you have boarded public transportation, you can purchase (only by cash!) a one way ticket from the driver that costs €1. You need to mark the paper ticket at one of the several small red metal ticket validators found on the stands in the bus or by placing it in the yellow electronic ticket validator.

If you plan to spend a longer time in Vilnius, get yourself a “Vilniečio Kortelė” (http://www.vilniustransport.lt/en/) – an electronic ticket that costs €1,5 and can be electronically refilled (http://www.vilniustransport.lt/en/pages/prices). It is available at newspaper stands throughout the city and the arrivals area of Vilnius Airport.

You need to activate the electronic “Vilniečio Kortelė” ticket as soon as you board the bus by placing it on the yellow electronic touch screen.
