Best Time to Travel
The best times to travel are mid-mornings (around 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM) and early afternoons (around 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM). Avoid peak hours between 6:00 AM - 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM - 7:00 PM, as traffic can significantly increase travel time and fare prices.
Safety Rating
Medium. Daytime travel is generally safe. However, be cautious during evening hours, especially when boarding vehicles from less populated bus stops. There's a risk of 'one-chance' operations (where criminal gangs pose as public transport operators). Pickpockets are common in crowded buses and bus stops. Always keep your valuables secure and out of sight.
