While urban transportation is mostly provided by buses, it may be difficult to distinguish buses and routes for a tourist, and asking questions may not work as drivers do not speak a foreign language. Even if the taxi seems to be the best means of transportation for visitors, you should absolutely try to negotiate with the driver beforehand about the place to be traveled and fare.

Higuero is a city built on a very green land. This is why you can find beautiful areas where you can go for a walk or have a picnic.
