The best way to reach the city centre from the airport is by taxi, although foreign travellers should always travel in groups or with a local tour guide to assure their safety. Drivers will likely charge a larger fee if you try to negotiate with them yourself as a tourist, so hiring a reputable guide from a local company before you travel may be best, as they can arrange your transportation on your behalf.
