    By Foot
    Most of the sights of Cholula can walked to in no time at all, the exception may be to Camino Real where most of the bars are located (opposite UDLA) about 25min walk from the Zocalo.

    Bike
    A large majority of the Cholulu's and the university students get around by bike, so if you you are thinking a somewhat more long term stay, ask around the various bike shops you should be able to pick one up for 400-500 peso.

    Bus
    5 peso, but for touristing you really only need buses to get in and out of Cholula.

    Taxi
    Tend to be be more expensive than in Puebla, as the drivers are used to the cashed up UDLA students. But 40-50 pesos maximum should get you where you need to go around town.

    Car
    Just be careful of the many one ways streets in and around the center of Cholula, they can be confusing to the first timers.

    You can also take some very good photos from the top, of the volcano Popo and the town of Cholula. Also the little museum nearby is interesting and too often overlooked.
