They are run by the [http://www.vgn.de/CFF6B06F-C0B4-11D7-AE44-00034709FE0C VGN] and [http://www.vag.de/ VAG]. Tickets can be bought directly at the stops or the main train station. Some smaller shops also sell them (watch out for the VGN logo). Nuremberg and Fürth are connected by the bus system and the metro. There is a frequent train to Erlangen and Fürth. Public transport runs from around 5:30 am until about half past midnight.

'''Nightliner'''
Friday and Saturday there are special night buses called [http://www.vag-nightliner.de/ Nightliner]. Those buses run throughout the region around the city. They leave at 1am, 2am, 3am and 4am at the main train station in Nuremberg, Erlangen and Fürth. If you have bought a day ticket, you can use it on those buses.

If you would like the area around Nuremberg, the best option is to buy a Tagesticket Plus Verbundweit/Gesamtraum. This allows you to travel the entire VGN network. You can go anywhere, from Amberg to Forchheim, a distance of about 60 kilometres. This is the perfect option for the weekend because the ticket is valid Saturday and Sunday if bought on Saturday, for up to 6 people (max 2 adults), including your bikes.

If you would like to explore farther cities you should choose bayern-Ticket sigle for one person or bayern-Ticket plus up to 5 people. For whole Germany on a weekend they offer Schönes-Wochenende-Ticket which allows 5 people to travel around whole germany for one day.
