Transport in Ljubljana

Lying at the crossroads of important European transport routes, Ljubljana is accessible by air, rail and road.

City buses

Those wishing to travel on Ljubljana city buses, operated by the Ljubljanski potniški promet (LPP) public utility company, should purchase the Urbana public transport card. The card is available from LPP ticket offices, tourist information centres and most of the city's newspaper kiosks, news-stands and post offices.
