I take a route taxi but if this is your first visit, I recommend hiring a driver to take you and show you around or going with a local friend. Depending on the day, it can be very overwhelming trying to navigate downtown on your own. Sav, on market days, gets very busy. Saturday is when they have the most vendors. The market is huge and you can find a variety of fresh produce at great prices. And the many stores across the street carry household goods and clothing. You can also get tons of music while there.

My additional 2-cents…It’s a local community so very few tourists go there. sooooo you don’t “blend in” you will be noticed.
