Tickets cost $5.10* (just over £2.50) during peak hours and $3.20* (just over £1.50) during off-peak hours. Tickets are fully transferable within two hours, so you can use the same ticket to hop on another bus once you get to the city centre. A three-day visitor pass covers all public transport and costs $25* (about £12.50). Private coaches are also available and pre-booking is essential.
