Public transportation to Rahat is limited despite Rahat's claim as Israel's largest Bedouin city. Private taxis from Be'er Sheva are approximately 50 Shekels, although many Israeli drivers prefer not to drive into the town center. Arab run vans run frequently to Rahat from Be'er Sheva's market, the cost being ten shekels. Finally, buses run to Kibbutzim surrounding Rahat, and one must either walk to Rahat or hitch-hike into town.
