  • Try to travel outside high-traffic periods for a faster run. 5pm is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.

  • The United States dollar (USD) is the currency you'll be using for general expenses and activities. Use cards when you can, and keep some cash handy for places that don't accept electronic payment.
