There are city buses available, but they are neither regular nor particularly comfortable. There are autos, metered taxis and tourist taxis too. The most popular mode of transportation here is undoubtedly auto-rickshaws.

Rickshaw
The best way to get around are the yellow and black three wheeled taxicabs known as the Autorickshaws or simply Rickshaws. Hollering 'Auto' or 'Rickshaw' at a passing Rickshaw should be enough to catch the drivers attention. In most cases the drivers would be able to understand Hindi and maybe even a few words of English. They are normally quite helpful and are not known to cheat tourists.

Bus
For using the local buses, you will need to know some gujarati, as the routes and numbers are written only in that language. Besides, buses are the most common transport facility for the common people in the city and hence they are overcrowded at times.
