Hotspots
Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6:30 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) are best to avoid the worst of the traffic. Early afternoons (around 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM) can also be relatively clear. Avoid peak hours (6:30 AM - 9:30 AM and 4:00 PM - 7:30 PM) if possible, as travel times can double.
Safety Rating
Medium. While daytime travel is generally safe, be aware of 'one-chance' situations, especially if traveling late at night or in less crowded buses. Pickpocketing can occur in crowded buses and bus stops. Always be alert and avoid flashing valuables. Trust your gut feeling; if a bus feels unsafe or too empty, wait for another.
