Consejos para la ciudad
Facilidad para moverse por la casa
Bus / Taxi
Best advice is to download the Translink NI app as soon as you get to NI if you plan to use public transport.
Taxi's are relatively cheap so if you don't fancy chancing the bus system, hail a black cab in city centre or download fon-a-cab / value cab app.
