ℹ️ Essential Travel Tips for Tourists
- Tickets MUST be validated: Always stamp your paper ticket as soon as you board. If you pay contactless, tap your card near the green screen.
- Frequency: You don't need a timetable. During peak hours, trams run every 3 to 4 minutes.
- Luggage: You can bring luggage on board, but large suitcases might require an extra ticket depending on the size.
