You can choose between three ways of planning your journey, all of which have an English version.</p> <h6>Tickets</h6> <p>You can buy tickets for both bus and train at the train and Metro stations and in the bus (they don't take credit card). At the train station and in several grocery shops and kiosks you can buy a ticket coupon (multi-ride ticket) for both bus and train with 10 rides - that's cheaper per ride. A single-ride two-zone ticket costs DKK 23 while a two-zone multi-ride ticket with ten clips (rides) costs DKK 135.</p> <p>Tickets / stamped ten-trip cards for 2 and 3 zones are valid for one hour.</p> <p>Buy a <a href="http://intl.m.dk/Drive+the+Metro/City+Pass.aspx" target="_new"><strong>City Pass</strong></a> and travel as much as you like.
