Public Transport & Taxi Service

Public Transport 

Belgrade public transport consists of buses, trolleybuses, and tram routes run by GSP “Beograd” and bus services operated by private bus companies, on around 130 routes. 

Tickets can be bought:

  • in public transport vehicles, from the driver or conductor;
  • at kiosks marked with a ticket sales sticker;
  • at GSP points-of-sale.

Paper cards are the most suitable for tourists. If you are not a frequent user you can buy a paper card that costs RSD 89 (if purchased on the kiosk) or RSD 150 (if purchased on the bus) and drive with that card for 90 minutes on all lines (for 1st or 2nd public transportation zone). 

Paper cards that you can use:

  • 1 day for 1st or 2nd public transportation zone – RSD 250,
  • 3 days for 1st or 2nd public transportation zone – RSD 700,
  • 5 days for 1st or 2nd public transportation zone – RSD 1000.

Tickets must be validated immediately upon entry into the vehicle, using touch screen monitor machines installed at every vehicle, by each set of doors. The best way to navigate is to check the map available online from the GSP site. At some more prominent stops, you can find the same map only with marked lines available there.
