GroßgruppenTicket (Ticket for Large Groups)

The GroßgruppenTicket (Ticket for Large Groups) can be purchased for groups of 5 people or more for one-way rides throughout the entire NVV region.

Rides for adults and children cost half of the price of an individual ticket or individual tickets U18 if you use this option. Individuals who accompany and chaperone kindergarten groups or school groups also pay half of the ticket price for individual tickets U18. The total ticket price is computed on the basis of the number of passengers and the geographic scope of the ticket. 

Any group that is in possession of such a joint ticket must remain together and ride together across the entire route. Exceptions from this rule may be agreed upon when the group registers, if the group has to be divided for capacity reasons. 

Registration of group rides 

  • A registration is not required for KVG trams and buses. 

If you are riding on other transportation carriers in Northern Hesse, groups of 15 or more will have to register at least 3 business days in advance by calling the NVV Service Phone at 0800-939-0800 (toll-free).

  • For regional trains and for the RegioTram, registration 10 business days ahead of the trip is required for groups of more than 30 or for groups bringing along bicycles. 
  • As a rule, a maximum of 30 individuals can be registered for bus rides. Unfortunately it is not possible to accommodate groups bringing along bicycles on buses. 
  • In AnrufSammelTaxis and at Mobilfalt, it is not possible to transport groups since cars are the common mode of transportation for those. 

Please understand that it will not always be possible to make additional space available to you on the routes you select. In such cases, we will be happy to advise you with regard to alternative travel options.
