Best Time to Travel
The best times to travel are very early mornings (before 6:00 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) on weekdays to avoid peak rush hour traffic. Weekends, especially Sundays, generally have lighter traffic.
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during the day, 'one-chance' vehicles (buses or taxis that rob passengers) are a risk, especially at night or in less crowded areas. Pickpocketing can also occur at busy bus stops. Always be alert and avoid late-night travel if possible.
