Berlin Cheap Transportation Ticket; Berlin Day Pass

Berlin as a capital city is quite a big city and for sure there are many tourism spots and places that must be visited when we are there. I been to Berlin last week and I found that by having a day ticket for transportation is really help me to save a lot for transportation cost around the city.

There are several package for tourist regarding transportation ticket around the city such as BerlinCityTourCard and BerlinWelcomeCard. You may buy them, as besides you can use those ticket for transportation, the ticket also entitle for discount in several museums. However, since I'm a student and with my student card I can get discount to entering museum and other attraction spots there is no need for me to get those card. A Simple Day Ticket or Group Day Ticket will do because it's more cheaper then the BerlinCard.
Therefore here I will give tutorial on how you can get your Day Ticket in the Automate Ticket Machine that available in all station in Berlin. With these tickets you can go wherever you want in Berlin because it can be use for bus, S-line and U-line trains.

First is tutorial for single traveler that need a Day Ticket
  • On below screen you just need to choose what type of Day Ticket you need according to the zone which you want to travel inside Berlin. All the Important tourism spots mostly located in zone A & B. Therefore I selected a Day Ticket in zone A&B. As for the single ticket is valid for all transportation for duration of 2hours only and it cost 2.80euro/adult and 1.4euro/Children.

  • The next screen will bring you to the payment screen and as you can see the Day Ticket only cost you 6.30Euro/adult/day.

Second tutorial for Traveler in a group and need Group Day Ticket
  • If you are travelling to Berlin in a group of at least 3 persons to max 5persons. Below are the tutorial on how you can get your Group Day Ticket
  • Click ---> other tickets



  • Click---> Group day pass for up to 5 People





  • Choose your preferable Zone. (example zone A&B)


  • Payment screen. It Cost only 15Euro for a group ticket of max 5 persons ( each person only pay 3euro for 1 day transportation cost) if you are in a group of 3persons still each person only pay 5euro/day. still cheaper then a Day Ticket (6.30Euro).


Note that this Group Day Ticket is a piece of ticket, therefore you must always travel with your group together using this 1 piece of ticket. You can't split up. 

I hope this post can help you enjoy the city of Berlin to the max. Have a good day :)

Trip to BMW Plant;Leipzig Germany

My campus held a trip to visit BMW plant in Leipzig last Monday (6/6). It was a nice trip as it free from the transportation till the guided tour in the BWM plant. Also, the weather forecast said that it gonna be a rainy day but on that day the weather just nice. The sky was dark but no rain, windy and not too hot. 

On the bus. (left to right: Martina, Me, Ira and Any)

It took around 2.5 hours from Hof to arrive in Leipzig. Below are the entrance of the BMW Plant. No photos is allowed inside the building. so bad. It really cool inside I can tell :D
Me & Iris so ready to see The Making of BMW.  The goggle is needed as we visited the making of the body part of the car. Many robots in that room. 
On the Receptionist while waited for the tour start. 
After finished tour in BMW plant we were given 4hours free time to explore Leipzig City Centre.


Leipzig is a nice city for shopping and relaxing but not much for sightseeing. We went to Panorama Tower and from here you can see the whole city. the entry fee is 3euro.

One of my favorite photo :)

We split into several groups when exploring the city and we found this group of Any, Ira and Aileen sunbathing. hahahaha...  Leipzig was quite small and we need only few hours too see almost everything and we still have enough time for sunbathing. :)

It's been long time...

It's been long time I didn't update nOnaCapSa and really sorry for that. 
I've been so busy arranging my next trips to explore Europe. There are so many cities me and my travel buddies want to see but we only have limited time now. 3months left and then have to say bye bye...

The thinking about leaving is killing me softly as I felt in love and feel comfortable here, staying in Hof,Germany. I have a lovely housemate, friendly and kind neighbors, nice friends at school and travel buddies and not to mentions all  great parties and events which I seldom find in my own country. I like the food here and travelling is so easy and affordable as you now my hobby is travelling. Moreover, my shopping activities also getting better here as I found many shops that are not available in Asia such as H&M, Madonna, & Tally Weijl.

There are many stories and photos queuing up to be posted here such my trip to Salzburg;Austria, trip to Italy:Rome, Florence & Pisa, trip to Berlin and BWM Plant in Leipzig and many others interesting times I spent with my Erasmus Friends. I will try my best to share them once I have the time and please pray for my health as I suffer from Stomachache lately :(

Last but not least I wish all of you have a great day always.
GBU. Cao..   ^^
