How do you get around Funen by bus and train without a car?
Regional buses, free local buses and the Svendborg train.
Short answer
FynBus runs the buses on all of Funen and Langeland, and Odense Letbane runs through Odense. In 2026 Dagsbilletten costs 75 DKK for everyone and gives unlimited travel on FynBus buses, night buses included, and the light rail on Funen and Langeland that day. Local buses are free in Assens, Faaborg-Midtfyn, Svendborg, Kerteminde, Nordfyn and Langeland municipalities. Between Odense and Svendborg you can take the regional train, run by DSB Vores Tog since 1 September 2026.
Why
- Dagsbilletten: 75 DKK for all of Funen and Langeland.
- Free local buses in six municipalities on Funen and Langeland.
- Odense–Svendborg by regional train.
Details
Dagsbilletten is valid until 03.59 the next morning, and two children under 12 travel free with it.
Tip
Buy Dagsbilletten in the Rejsebillet app under special tickets, because the bus driver does not sell it.
What may differ
Dagsbilletten is not valid on DSB trains or Flextrafik, and the list of free local buses can change.
Common misconception
Outside Odense you cannot get around Funen without a car.
What actually happens
FynBus buses reach all of Funen and Langeland, and local buses are free in several towns.
