- Coimbra has a public bus service and this is the least expensive means to move around the city. A month pass or a
10 journey ticket bought in advance are the cheapest means of using this transport service.
- Cards (10 trips) for public city-transport are for sale in most kiosks, as well as credifone-cards.
- The railway station Coimbra-B is situated slightly outside the city and therefore, a regular link is maintained with the small Coimbra-A station in the city centre.
