Ridesharing And Staying Safe!
Uber is very inexpensive here you can roughly go anywhere nearby for less than $3.
Don't forget to stay safe VERIFY REQUESTED VEHICLE!
Several reports have shown Bolt Drivers using different vehicles than the requested registered vehicle to kidnap and assault passengers.
Uber has not been on that report but we still highly advise to verify your driver and vehicle before getting a ride with any ride service.

Kiosks or Supermarkets?
While here you'll notice vendor kiosks in almost any corner. They must be cheap right?
Kiosks are usually cheap to locals but if you are a foreigner get ready to be upsold or ripped off.
It's much better to shop at a grocery store like Carrefour (they can be found in most major malls) they have extremely competitive prices and HUGE DISCOUNTS DAILY!
While there enjoy the mall too!
Don't forget the totes we provide in your room before shopping.
