Koror is a wonderful place to walk and some places you do need a car to get to. If you're in town for a day or two, buses and taxis can get you to where you need to go. Bus times are sporadic and "go slow" motto is adhered to and taxi rates vary. Be sure to get a rate quote before you get into the taxis. If you stay longer or would like to visit the other end of the island to see waterfalls or the "mini White House", by all means rent a car. Luckily, my co-worker had the use of his mother's car and we were able to fit 6 of us in a small type SUV. Gas prices are like the states, expensive. People are courteous drivers and no one is in a hurry to go anywhere. Speed limit is anywhere from 15 mph in the city to 50 mph outside of Koror. Be wary of wild pigs, or other animals zipping out from the brush to cross the highway. Construction on the local roads in certain parts of the island will slow you down.

I didn't see too many adults on bike especially going to the outer regions of the island, but i did see lots of children commuting to and from school on bikes.
