A counter at the airport offers rental cars and taxis rides for Rp. 60,000 into downtown. Alternatively, walk down to the road in front of the terminal building to the main road and turn to your right as you exit the airport and then take a white public city transport locally known as “angkot” (Rp. 2,000) to Terminal Panorama, then take another angkot either yellow or green angkot (Rp. 2,000) to the downtown. This alternative way is much more cheaper than taking regular airport taxis.
The most fun way to get around is by angkot (public city transport). You should tell the driver where you’re going before get on. All rides cost Rp. 2,000 regardless of the distance. It is strongly recommended to give extra Rp. 2,000 to the driver if you bring a lot of luggage with you.
