    Transportation: Hill Climbing 'Buses'
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • 'Mode': AROUND
    Category: Bus
    Getting TO/AROUND: These 'buses' are actually cars, that go back and forth up and down the steep hills. There are plenty of places to wait for them at the bottom of the hills.

    Just stand near the sign for your destination, and be prepared to share the ride with 2 or 3 other people.
