The aiga busses provide a convenient and picturesque way to explore the Tuitula Island. They are pick-up trucks customized for public transport by their owner, which equips them with powerful sound systems always blasting at ear-busting volumes. Other colorful aspects of the culture are the traditional Siapo paintings, as well as the Sunday church celebrations, attended with great fervor.
