Your Trusted Curator
We don't try to list everything. We tell you exactly which ticket to buy, which app to download, and what mistakes to avoid — so you can make quick, confident decisions instead of spending hours researching.
Accuracy First
Tourists make real financial decisions based on our guides. Every price, every app link, every transit rule is verified against official operator sources. We maintain a zero-tolerance policy on inaccurate information.
Honest Advice
Our "Roammate Math" gives you real cost-benefit analysis. If a tourist pass isn't worth it, we'll say so. If contactless beats a day ticket, we'll show you the calculation — not a sponsored recommendation.
Why Roammate Exists
The Problem
You land in a new city. Which ticket should you buy? Is there a daily cap? Does your bank card work at the gates? Can you take the metro to the airport? Official transport websites are confusing, travel blogs give outdated prices, and you don't have time to figure it all out while a queue forms behind you at the ticket machine.
Our Solution
One comprehensive, up-to-date guide per city. The right ticket for your situation. Airport transfers compared. Critical warnings about fines and common tourist traps. Everything verified against official sources, updated monthly, and written for people who need answers — not encyclopedias.
For First-Time Visitors
Every detail you need, in plain sentences — not keywords. Which app to download before you leave home. What the fine is for not validating your ticket. Where the airport bus actually stops. The things nobody tells you until it's too late.
For Business Travelers
Short stays, tight schedules, no room for mistakes. Our guides are built for travelers who land on Monday and need to be productive immediately. No wasted time figuring out transit systems — just tap and go.
Accessibility — Done Properly
Genuinely Useful Information for Disabled Travelers
Every city guide includes a dedicated, in-depth accessibility section. Not a token paragraph — a thoroughly researched breakdown of what actually works and what doesn't. Which metro stations have step-free access. Which tram lines have level boarding. Where the elevators are, and whether they're actually operational.
We cover wheelchair access, service animals, companion policies, accessible routes between major attractions, and discount schemes for disabled travelers — city by city, station by station. Real accessibility ratings based on verified data, not marketing copy from transport operators. Because travelers with disabilities deserve the same level of practical, reliable detail that every other traveler gets.
25 Cities and Counting
Active Guides
Each guide covers tickets and apps, airport transfers, family discounts, accessibility, night transport, shared mobility, eSIM recommendations, and luggage storage.
Blog — updated monthly
Our blog is updated monthly and covers three kinds of posts: in-depth city guides on how public transport works in specific cities, timely pieces on events and seasonal transport changes, and timeless guides to the things that trip up travellers across every European city. Throughout, we treat accessibility as core content — practical information for disabled travellers, city by city.
Always Updated
Transport systems change. Prices go up, apps get replaced, zones get abolished. We verify and update every guide monthly so you never rely on outdated information.
Behind Roammate
Erwin Boogert
I built Roammate out of frustration. As a frequent traveler across Europe, I kept running into the same problem: official transport websites that are confusing, blogs with prices two years out of date, and no single place that just tells you what to do. So I built one. Rotterdam-based, detail-obsessed, zero tolerance for wrong information.
