Start-point and bus-closure detail below are from older editions (~2011-2014, city press and Guaguas Municipales) — genuinely dated, lower confidence, recommend re-verifying close to Jan 2027.

Có thể dùng ngay tại cổng soát vé Lựa chọn khác: Tarjeta turística LIVE €5.00 (24 hours) / €12.00 (72 hours), unlimited rides — Worth it if taking roughly 4+ trips within the validity window (single cash fare is €1.40/ride); for a single race-day trip or two, paying per-ride by contactless card or cash is cheaper.
Single fare paid to the driver in cash is €1.40. Guaguas Global's own site confirms all vehicles accept bank debit or credit cards via NFC (Contactless), so foreign contactless bank cards work directly without buying any card. The Tarjeta turística LIVE can be bought at offices, via the GuaguasLPA app, or online.
