I believe there is a 2 tier bus fare system in operation now: residents rate and tourists rate.
My daughter (a resident, with an ID Card) was unaware of this and so was only surprised how expensive the bus fare was for her journey. It seems the presumption is that you are a tourist unless you look/say/prove otherwise? Is that the idea?
What should she have done (so she knows for the future). Just have her ID Card at the ready and ask for a Resident ticket or something?
Thanks in advance, and apologies if I got any of the facts wrong with my assumptions about the fares - I never rode on the old buses and probably won't on the new ones, but she does so I want to make it easier and cheaper for her (and thus me!)
