Ticket delivery
A little guidance, right to the platform.
After booking, your details are sent to your email, WhatsApp, or Telegram. You must use that message to physically print your ticket at the station before boarding.
For many confirmed bookings, we also help pre-print physical tickets before departure and arrange a simple handover, so tourists do not have to figure out the station machines on arrival. This is a complimentary support service offered when timing and station access allow. Travellers will still receive all ticket details digitally and can print at the station if needed.
