Circulate

• Bejak (tuktuk): 10000IDR for a short distance for two
• Ojek: motorcycle taxi

Angkutan (bémos)

Warning: near the minibuses (Angkut 'in the local language), beware of people who offer their help by jabbering in English and saying they are teachers: they probably want to be paid for the ride or to be paid for the " tour "they would offer. That said, Ambon's minibus network allows you to go almost anywhere for a very reasonable price. The list of lines below is not exhaustive and should be completed as and when. The prices given are from the Martika terminal in Kota Ambon. They can be inconsistent because they are not fixed and given orally.
