When visiting a strange city on holiday or business, travel cards are a useful, convenient and economical way to get around unfamiliar cities. In many cities the cards allow travel on all forms of transport, from buses to trains to trams and even ferries, so eliminating the need to buy separate ticket for each method. Some even allow free or reduced entry fees to public attractions. Here are a few of the better deals.
