Medan Getting there & around

Getting around

Public transport

Medan’s got more opelet than you can shake a spoon player at. They cost 2500Rp for most in-town destinations. Here are a few helpful routes: white Mr X from Jl SM Raja to Kesawan Square, Lapangan Merdeka and train station; and yellow 64 from Maimmon Palace to Sun Plaza.

For becak, reckon on paying about 5000Rp for most destinations. But they’ll ask you to pay more than double that.
