Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6:30 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) to avoid peak rush hour traffic. Mid-day (1:00 PM - 3:00 PM) can also be less congested. Avoid traveling during evening rush hours (4:00 PM - 8:00 PM) if possible, as travel time can more than double.
Safety Rating
Medium. While daylight travel on major public transport is generally safe, always be aware of your surroundings. Avoid displaying valuables openly. Travel alone at night should be approached with caution, especially in less busy areas. Stick to well-lit, populated routes and known public transport stops.
