Residents praised Warsaw’s extensive tram network and efficient metro.

The city ranked ahead of Stockholm, Hamburg, Amsterdam and Oslo. 

Taipei ranked first, with 95 percent of respondents giving public transport a positive rating. They highlighted metro punctuality, clean stations and efficient operations. 

Singapore came second and Hong Kong third. Edinburgh was fourth, with residents praising its well-functioning bus network and expanding tram network, which also serves the airport. 

Seoul followed, ahead of Zurich, Vienna, Tallinn, Helsinki and Medellín. 

Tallinn was noted for offering free public transport to registered residents, Helsinki for integrating different transport modes, and Medellín for cable cars linking hillside neighbourhoods with the city centre. 

Time Out surveyed more than 24,000 people. Respondents rated buses, trains and trams on a five-point scale. The rankings were based on the share of respondents who rated local public transport as good or excellent. 

To ensure geographical diversity, the ranking included only the highest-rated city from each country.
