Best Time to Travel
To avoid peak traffic, plan your journey between 10:00 AM and 3:00 PM on weekdays. Early mornings before 6:00 AM or late evenings after 8:00 PM can also be less congested, but safety considerations increase. Weekends generally have lighter traffic, especially on Saturdays.
Safety Rating
Medium. Daytime travel is generally safe, but pickpocketing can occur in crowded bus stops and 'one-chance' incidents are a risk, especially during late-night or early-morning travel, or if using unregistered private taxis. Exercise caution and awareness of your surroundings.
