Why do I need small change?

Having bus fares ready

German busdrivers do not have to accept large bills (Geldscheine) as a rule. Before going on a bus, make sure you either have a supply of small coins (50 Pfennig, 10 Pfennig, 1 DM, 2 DM) handy, or even better, try to buy a tourist ticket in advance. Most transport services have vending machines near the stops. In some towns, this is cheaper than getting a single fare directly on the bus.
