Deutschland-Ticket: unlimited regional trains across Germany
Deutschland-Ticket: Germany's regional transport pass
The Deutschland-Ticket (or D-Ticket) is a monthly pass giving unlimited access to regional and local transport across Germany: RB and RE regional trains, S-Bahn, U-Bahn, trams and buses. It cost €63 a month in 2026 and rises to €66.80 on 1 January 2027.
It does not cover Deutsche Bahn long-distance trains: no ICE, IC or EC.
Kombo does not sell the Deutschland-Ticket. But if you have one, you add it to your passenger profile on Kombo and compare your journeys in Germany: an ICE for the long distance, a regional train covered by your ticket for the last leg. For Paris → Munich or Strasbourg → Berlin, Kombo also compares the TGV INOUI, the ICE, FlixTrain and buses.

Very practical for ordering trips on several means of transport at the same time, quick and efficient comparison and easy to use!

Deutschland-Ticket or BahnCard: which one?
They are not made for the same use.
The Deutschland-Ticket is made for regional journeys: you live in Germany, spend a month's holiday there or take lots of short trips between nearby cities. At €63 a month, it pays off after just a few regional journeys.
The BahnCard gives a discount on ICE and IC trains: 25% or 50% depending on the card. It is the right choice if you often travel long distance.
Note: the BahnCard gives no discount on the Deutschland-Ticket.
The winning combo for a trip to Germany? An ICE booked in advance for the long distance, then the Deutschland-Ticket for regional trains, buses and trams once there. For a stay of just a few days in Munich or Berlin, a local transport ticket may be enough: do the maths before you subscribe.
Travelling as a family? Also look at the Familienticket: up to 5 people on the ICE for €99.99 return, reservations included.
