Belo Horizonte Getting Around

Getting Around

On foot If you plan to get around the city center on foot, you might want to take a map. Because the city grid is layed out with both ordinals and diagonal streets, it is very easy to take a wrong turn. By bus BH is well served by buses. The SC buses circulate through the old city; others serve outlying neighborhoods. If you are outside the center, take a blue bus to the center. As there is no bus map, remember its number to find your way back. By train The Metrô snakes through the city, from Eldorado northeast to Vilarinho, tangeant to the north side of downtown. Lagoinha station is near the rodoviária (bus station). By taxi The main taxi companies in Belo Horizonte include Hutaxi, Jo Taxi, Intertaxi, Pitangui and Protaxi.
