I’ll be staying for six months and want to avoid buying a vehicle.
What are the main ways to get around the city without a car?
1 Answer
The primary public transport option is the municipal bus network, which covers most neighborhoods and the central market area. Buses run on a fixed schedule, and fares are low, payable with cash or a reloadable card obtained at the bus terminal. For shorter trips, motorbike taxis are common and can be hired on the street; they negotiate fares before departure. Walking is feasible in the compact city centre, especially along the riverfront promenade. If you need to travel to nearby towns, the regional airport and river port provide scheduled services, but these are less frequent and usually require advance booking.
A starting point only — it may be incomplete or out of date. Check official sources for anything important, and add your own answer if you know São Gabriel da Cachoeira.
