With the receipt that comes with the form you fill in upon arrival at your hotel you can use the city buses for free during your stay. This proves to be extremely helpful for excursions to island Mainau, the ride to the university or the new thermal bath but hardly useful for getting into the city.

The reason is the never ending traffic jam, especially at rush hour but also during most other hours (except for late in the evenings). The old town is definitely not built for buses (most of it is pedestrian zone anyway) and the streets that go around it are constantly filled with cars going to the shopping malls near the Swiss border or where ever.

Pictures update: As I did not take a photo of a bus (quite inexcusable!) - only found out when I built the page - VT member Kathrin_E volunteered to take some for me when returning to Konstanz. Which she did as promised on a Fasnacht weekend (LOL) - and here we see the results! Thank you, Kathrin :-)
