Thank you both for your help. I don't think I have the patience to get a specific license for motorbikes and bribing is not an option for me at all. I prefer to do things legally even if it takes longer. I think I'll consider cycling. I ... Read More

Hi Nataneal, Thanks for your response. It's very helpful. Yeah I think I'm definitely going to need a local's help with accommodation. I do luckily have accommodation on arrival provided by the company for 2 weeks so hopefully this is ... Read More
