Not the right ticket?
Maybe one of these offers will suit you:

Monthly pass U21
With the Monthly pass U21 (up to the age of 20) you are mobile in your free time. During the week the Monthly pass U21 is valid from 02:00 p.m. within the entire GVH tariff area. At the weekends and on public holidays you can even use the buses, trams and trains the whole day long. The first day of validity can be freely selected.
Annual pass U21
If you like to travel regularly in your free time with buses, trams and trains within the GVH tariff area, the Annual pass U21 (up to the age of 20) might be the best solution. Compared to twelve single Monthly passes U21 you can save up to 15 %. The Annual pass U21 is valid during the week from 02:00 p.m. and at the weekends and on public holidays all day long.
Monthly pass education subscription
If you subscribe to a Monthly pass education subscription, you can reach your training place and vocational school twelve months long by bus, tram or train. In doing so you save a lot of money: the Monthly pass education subscription is significantly less expensive than twelve regular Monthly passes education. Apprentices up to and including 22 years of age can also use the Youth Pass. It costs only 15 euros per month and is valid in all three tariff zones (A, B and C) of the GVH. It can therefore be an inexpensive alternative to a subscription.
