Ramallah - Post Report Question and Answers
Are local buses, trams, trains or taxis safe and affordable?
Taxis are fine. You can get bossy and tell drivers to slow down, if it's getting too fast for your taste. Arabic helps for negotiating the price, but the rides aren't expensive and may be preferable for someone who doesn't want to invest in a car. No trains are available around Ramallah. Bus service to Jerusalem and other cities and villages exists and people use it with no problem. - Dec 2013
