Transport: In a huge city like Sao Paulo roads are obviously extremely congested, therefore the subway system is probably the fastest option for getting around in the downtown area. The subway is however limited to a north-south line, which includes the main station, Terminal Tiete; an east-west line; and a short central line below the Avenida Paulista. There are hundreds of buses covering the city, operating from 5am to midnight, but these are generally overcrowded. Taxis are freely available, but standard taxis are unreliable. Radio taxis are more reputable and favoured by tourists; taxis are the best means of transport after dark. Various neighbourhoods in Sao Paulo are easy to negotiate on foot and are usually safe by day.
