Opal Travel

Essential

The official app for Sydney's public transport network. Check balances, plan trips, and top up your Opal card for trains, buses, ferries, and light rail.

Pro tip: Your contactless credit or debit card works as a tap-on fare card across Sydney transit. You do not need a physical Opal card unless you want the weekly cap benefits.

Myki

Nice to have

Melbourne's official transit card and app. Covers trams (free in the CBD zone), trains, and buses across Victoria.

Pro tip: Melbourne's tram network is free within the CBD Free Tram Zone. Outside that zone, you need a valid Myki card or you risk a fine.

TripView

Nice to have

A favourite among Sydney commuters for real-time departure boards and trip planning. Faster and more focused than the official Opal app for checking train and bus times.
