Brief Answer:
Traveling can be done if there is no pain.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
You can travel by bus if it does not aggravate any pain in abdomen or there is no history of any bleeding during early pregnancy. Do take rest in case it causes pain.
Hope my answer is helpful.
