Description
Could this be the world's best-ever rail deal: unlimited travel anywhere in Germany by rail, bus, tram or U-bahn for the whole of June for €9 (£7.70) – just 25p per day.The one-month ticket has been backed by billions of euros by the German government in a bid to entice people back to public transport. And it’s open to foreign visitors as well, including Simon Calder, travel correspondent of The Independent, who’s at Cologne railway station.Of course, this podcast is absolutely free, as is my newsletter which you can find at https://www.independent.co.uk/newsletters Hosted on Acast.
