Best Time to Travel
The best times to travel are early mornings (before 6:00 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) to avoid the intense peak hour rush. Weekend travel is generally less congested.
Safety Rating
Medium. While public transport is widely used, 'one-chance' incidents (where passengers are robbed by criminals posing as commercial drivers) are a risk, especially with less regulated shared taxis or late at night. Always be alert and board vehicles from designated, busy stops.
