Minibus Taxis, Metro Rail, Private Taxis, Uber, Golden Bus Network, My Citi Network
Cleanliness: High/ Efficiency: Low
Minibus Taxis take around R 5. It is quite frequent along the set routes.
Metrorail takes around R 7 to R 22. It is cheaper. But, it is infamous for frequent disruptions and delays due to poor maintenance. Start 30 minutes early if preferring this one.
Cabs takes a minimum of R10 with average rate being R 30 to R 40. This option can come in handy where the public transports are hard to spot. On the other hand, Uber is a good option but it works only if connected to a credit card.
Golden Bus Network costs R10 - R 30. It is not that reliable as it does not cover tourist destinations.
My Citi Bus Network works on Connect Cards. So, you need to fill in money into the cards to travel.
