The transportation is very important when it comes to local touring and sightseeing. There are many attractions situated all around the city and getting from one end to another end could be difficult and costly too.

You should look to find cheaper modes of travel and you can rent the cars from the airport itself and hire it on hourly basis. You can also travel in local buses which lead you to the tourist attractions.

There are metro rails also that can drop you off near your attractions and walking from there should not be a problem. The taxis are the most costly mode of transport and one should prefer to share the fare with others.
