City advice
Getting around
Transportation
Über, InDriver and Yellow Taxi's are the best bets for Transportation. Yellow Taxi Stands called Sitio's are common place. Costs typically are few dollars to get around locally in ZR, and upwards of 10 to 15 dollars for long distance. Additionally there is a bus stop walking, distance down Basilio Badillo Road.
