Berlin Transport - Berlin is very traveller friendly. Wherever you want to go, there are multiple forms of transport available to you.

The Railways in Berlin are getting faster and better all the time. Lehrter Bahnhof is to be Berlin’s central railway interchange from this year onwards, and it has been integrated into the Europe wide high-speed railway network. Other popular railway stations include Bahnhof Zoologischer Garten (Zoo), the Ostbahnhof, Lichtenberg, Wannsee, Spandau and Schönefeld.

Travellers arriving from Western destinations, including Hamburg and Amsterdam, will arrive at the Zoo station. If you are coming from Eastern destinations such as Vienna, Prague and Budapest, you will probably come in at Lichtenberg (East Berlin).

If you choose to travel by car in Berlin then you need to be aware that speed limits in towns are strictly monitored at 30 or 50 kmph on main inner city roads. Dual carriageways can increase up to100 kmph. German motorways still have no speed limit unless otherwise marked.

ADAC, the German Automobile Association provides free maps, which include service and filling station information. The maps are available at their centres.

If you are travelling to Berlin by bus you will be arriving at Berlin’s central Bus Station Terminal on Messedam in Charlottenburg (west of the Zoo) just opposite the radio tower - Funkturm - and the International Congress Centre (ICC).
