The results of First’s fare review have resulted in singles becoming cheaper, including up to £1.50 for a journey of up to three miles for adults, and return fares removed within a new ‘inner zone’.

But if you don’t fancy taking the bus, in what other modes of transport can you get around Bristol?

The hot air balloon
An iconic form of Bristol transport if ever there was one, with the city a world leader in their manufacture and the annual Balloon Fiesta one of Europe’s largest free events.

The bicycle
To much scoffing, Bristol was last week named as one of the world’s top-10 bicycle friendly cities. Try telling that to anybody who has cycled around the St James Barton roundabout.

The ferry
For a rollercoaster ride, take a look at this Vine video of a trip from the Cascade Steps to the ss Great Britain. But the joy of Bristol’s ferry services is their leisurely pace.

The Segway
Bristol Zoo started offering guided Segway tours this summer. It’s a brilliantly bonkers and completely pointless mode of transport, with a capped top speed of 12.5mph. But it’s also loads of fun.
