Public transport

The best way to get around the city is on foot or by bike, which is actually the favourite transportation of all Parmesans. The city centre is compact and full of monuments and other sights to visit and admire. The local bus transport company is called TEP. You can buy tickets or passes in all ticket offices, tobacconists and newsstands. There are different tickets to choose from: single ticket (valid 60 minutes), day ticket, ticket for 8 single rides and different period passes. You can also buy ticket on the bus but for an extra charge and with exact change. Make sure to validate your ticket as soon as you board the bus.
