Further Information on transportation services
City bus services to the University of Passau
You can conveniently walk all distances between most hotels and conference venues. The walk will rarely take longer than 20 minutes. If you still prefer public transport, please go to the main bus station (called “ZOB”) where buses leave every 15 or 30 minutes in all directions.

Two buses are of special interest:
To move around town: The CityBus goes from the train station (“Hauptbahnhof”) via ZOB and town hall (“Rathaus”) to “Römerplatz” (which is close to many hotels) and back between 6.45 am until 8 pm.

| Tipping | Service and VAT are included in the menu price in restaurants, bars, etc. all over Germany. Still, it is typical to “round up” the amount to some more or less round figure. A rule of thumb is to add 5-10%, generally to a full amount. It is not typical to leave your money on the table after you receive the check but pay the waiter/waitress directly. |
