These shared rides are incredibly budget-friendly and provide an excellent opportunity to mingle with locals. For those seeking a more structured experience, Surabaya's bus system has seen improvements in reliability and coverage. While the system may initially seem a bit daunting, it's a rewarding way to explore the city's dynamic neighbourhoods and discover hidden gems off the beaten path.
