Benin Transportation Tips by ajayzener

'Mode': AROUND
Category: Motorcycle
Getting TO/AROUND: Within the city of Cotonou you will never be left stranded. The roads of Benin are full of motorcycles (Zemidjan) wanting to give you a ride. The familiar looking yellow jacketed motorcycle riders will never leave you alone on the road, they will always stop by you hinting you a lift. Night or day it is really easy a mode of transport. Just carry a helmet with you..the ride is rough !!!

'Mode': TO
Category: Airplane
Getting TO/AROUND: There are a few connections from/to the Cotonou Airport.
Airlines Operating

Air Senegal - to and from Dakar (Senegal) , Abidjan (Cote d'ivoire)
Air Mauritaine - to and from Dakar, Abidjan, Bamako (Mali)
Air Ivoire - to and from Abidjan
Air France - to and from Paris (daily)
Air Gabon - to and from Libreville (Gabon)
Air Burkina - to and from Ougadougou

Air MAuritaine, Air Gabon, Air France are the better airlines that I have travelled in, the rest operate smaller aircrafts.

For anyone coming from Europe, the best connection is Air France - Paris. From US and americas, the best connection is from Senegal.
