]]> Public transportation is super important when you’re traveling, and it’s also such a cool way to integrate into the culture as a visitor. These are the best cities for you to check out if you’re a transportation lover.

New York

If you’re in the Us, there’s really no better public transportation system than the MTA. Not only can you get around all the boroughs pretty easily, but there’s also only one flat fare that applies to both buses and trains. Though the trains and train stations themselves are definitely not super beautiful and clean, they are reliable and reasonably priced.

Madrid, Spain

What is pretty phenomenal about the Madrid transit system is that wherever you are in Madrid, you’re never more than a 10-minute walk from a subway station. And Madrid is a big city, so it makes a big difference. Not only are they frequent, but the metro is also super cheap, coming out at just about 1 euro a trip, which is pretty incredible.

Singapore

Though this country is usually pretty expensive, they’ve managed to keep the cost of transit actually very low. Not only this, but the trains are clean, fast, and easy to use. Tickets aren’t complicated and in general, the transit system utilizes a lot of technology to make commuters time easier.

The Peak Tramway in Hong Kong is an awesome way to check out the full scope of Hong Kong’s skyscrapers, but also see the beautiful bay. The funicular is 1.5 kilometers long and goes up over 400 meters in altitude!

Guttannen, Switzerland

In the southern part of Switzerland is the Gelmer Funicular, which is the steepest funicular in all of Europe! The tram goes up 1,800 meters and has a maximum gradient of 106%, which really makes it look more like a ride at a theme park than a mode of transportation. But once you get up to the top, you have a stunning landscape and will be surrounded by mountains, greenery, and the clouds.

Quebec City, Canada

The Old Quebec Funicular was first built in the 19th century, and even though it’s been modernized, it’s still a fun way to experience the history and great views of the city and landscape.
