- Scarblac 7y agoDepends on where you are, but in the Netherlands it'd be bicycle within the city, and trains between cities. For me it's only the camping holidays in summer that I really need a car for, and renting one for that costs close to what owning an old car costs, so I still have one. But I'm constantly considering getting rid of it.
- lucasmullens 7y agoYour example only works if you never leave a city.
- seanmcdirmid 7y agoThey have trains for that.
- whatarethembits 7y agoWhich is fine as long as you're willing to limit your travel from city to city and ignore the rest of the country in between.
- Scarblac 7y agoBicycles and buses from train stations near the destination also work, or renting a car for a day. But it rarely comes up.
- seanmcdirmid 7y agoI went to pretty rural places in the Netherlands. You take a train to a town, and then get on a bus and wham, you are at some castle next to the ocean in a small tourist village.
