Many options make moving around Poznan easier. You can order a taxi or even rent a scooter with one click.
The most popular are:
UBER
If you want to order a taxi, Uber is generally cheaper than a “normal one”. Another advantage is that you can be picked up swiftly after a driver is assigned.
BOLT & LIME
Both apps are mostly known for renting a scooter. They are usually scattered around the whole city, and you can locate them quickly via the app. You can download an app with a logo on the scooter, register, and pay per time.
[Try to avoid TAXIs standing in front of the airport and central train station; the prices are usually higher than regular]
Poznań’s public transport offers many day and night connections. During your stay, you can travel by bus or tram. The following webpage has plenty of information about tickets and tariffs:

Single-use time tickets or a 24-hour ticket could be your best option.
You can buy a ticket for public transport in places such as ticket machines near bus/ tram stops, local newsstands, and on the internet. Purchasing a ticket for Zone A will be enough for communication in the city. The most straightforward way to buy a ticket is by downloading a „Jakdojade” mobile app. You can buy tickets and pay via credit card, Apple Pay, and Google Pay. The application also shows a timetable and allows you to plan your route.
Poznań is generally a very safe city. Most public places have CCTV, and only a few spots are less welcoming for foreigners. Please be cautious in public transport and be aware of possible pickpockets as in all major cities.
Our city improves for the benefit of its inhabitants. We encourage you to visit the historic Old Market and its vicinities, sip a coffee in one of many cafes, drink a pint of cold beer, or enjoy the night lights while strolling along the Warta river bank. The nearby area of the campus also offers some attractions and multicultural restaurants. Do not worry if you are vegan or follow a particular diet – plenty of options.
