Tram

Tram in Lviv was the first public transport. At the end of 19th century, it was open the first track of equestrian tram, and just after 14 years – electric tram.

Of course, since that time, the city has changed to unrecognizability, and transport routes intertwined in the most unexpected ways. However, the tram is still a favourite way of moving for Lviv citizens. The leaders of the city say that in the future plan to make the tram as a priority transport.

The Fare – 7 UAH (total), 3,50 UAH (preferential), if if you buy a ticket from the driver. If you buy a ticket at the bus stops or through the Privat 24 app – the ticket will cost 6 UAH (total) and 3 UAH. (preferential).

Attention! The passenger must validate the ticket purchased; otherwise, you have to pay a penalty.
