Practical tips
Check the bus fare and duration on this page, then look at train prices for your exact date. A big price gap usually favours the bus, while a small gap may justify the extra comfort or speed of the train.
Berlin has several places where buses can leave from. Read the departure stop on your e-ticket before you set off, and check it again on the day, so you do not end up at the wrong station.
Bus fares tend to rise as seats fill up, especially on weekends and holidays. Booking well ahead usually gets you the lowest price and a wider choice of departure times, so you avoid overpaying at the last minute.
Departures differ, so look at the itinerary details before paying. If a change is involved, note where it happens and leave a generous margin, so a late arrival does not make you miss your connection.
If you continue from Ingolstadt to another city or across a border, buy that ticket separately and allow plenty of time. Keep your passport or ID card with you in case of checks when entering a neighbouring country.
