As you can see on your map [[Dusseldorf]] is just south of this city so you can easily follow instruction for Dusseldorf. You "have to" pay ticket for the tram because in a tram (every tram) they have two officers who are standing there and with that ticket (2,20 Euros) yiz can travel one part of journey towards Dusseldorf (or whole journey) and if control came try to play dummy tourist ( I didn't try because in Berlin is very tricky when you are without ticket and both of them are owned by DB). On the other hand if you are without money wait rush hour around 5-6 o'clock and get into tram, train. The city is very long, so walking with bag is not very good idea. | As you can see on your map [[Dusseldorf]] is just south of this city so you can easily follow instruction for Dusseldorf.

Duisburg is a city in the German federal state of North Rhine-Westphalia.
It is one of the biggest cities in Germany, located directly in the Ruhr Area. Hitchhiking out will be quite difficult because of the colossal network of motorways in the Ruhr Area. Nevertheless, don't panic, we'll give it a try!
As you can see on your map Dusseldorf is just south of this city so you can easily follow instruction for Dusseldorf. You "have to" pay ticket for the tram because in a tram (every tram) they have two officers who are standing there and with that ticket (2,20 Euros) yiz can travel one part of journey towards Dusseldorf (or whole journey) and if control came try to play dummy tourist ( I didn't try because in Berlin is very tricky when you are without ticket and both of them are owned by DB). On the other hand if you are without money wait rush hour around 5-6 o'clock and get into tram, train. The city is very long, so walking with bag is not very good idea.
