Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6:00 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) are best to avoid the worst of the traffic. Evening travel is best after 7:00 PM. Avoid peak hours: 6:30 AM - 9:30 AM and 4:00 PM - 7:30 PM.

Medium. During the day, it's generally safe. However, 'one-chance' syndicates can operate on public transport, especially late evenings. Always be alert, avoid displaying valuables, and use well-lit, busy bus stops. Pickpocketing can occur in crowded buses and bus stops.
