Benin Transportation

Transportation: Motocycles Everywhere
  • Tip Rating:
  • '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 !!!

    Transportation: Air Connections from Benin
  • Tip Rating:
  • '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.
