"Cars and buses are not used for very long distances. We can travel by them around our country, usually if we need to get to school or work. However, some people use car or bus also for travelling abroad for holidays but it is not so comfortable.

Travelling by train is more suitable for long journeys, because there are sleeping and dining carriages. But train is also popular mean of transport for commuting to school or work.

Ships are used mostly for cruises over the seas but we can also have the river boat trips connected with sightseeing. Ferry boats are important for transportation not only passengers but also goods, cars and other vehicles.
