How to get around the city
In Granada you'll find public buses and sightseeing buses in addition to taxis, so you can move conveniently and efficiently between the various places of interest in the city.
The city bus is the best way to get around Granada. They usually run from 6:45 am-11 pm. On Fridays, Saturdays and the eve of public holidays there are also two special lines (known as 'búhos' –Spanish for owls) that run from midnight to 5 am.
Taxis can be found every day at any time. They are white with the city crest, a green line and their licence number on the side. You can stop them in the street when they have the green light on. They can also be found at taxi ranks on Granada's most central streets and squares. There is also a radio taxi service –the taxi will pick you up from wherever you like. Tariffs are displayed inside the taxis and include the minimum fare, flag-down charge, kilometre charge and other extras such as night service, public holidays, and station or airport service.

How much does transport cost?

They are transferable, and you can change between bus lines free of charge within 45 minutes. When you purchase the pass for the first time, you have to pay a deposit of €2 which is refunded on returning the card. The different card options can be purchased directly from the bus driver.
