Transportation from the City Center to Addis Ababa Bole Airport
Since Addis Ababa Bole Airport is located very close to the city center, it does not take long to reach the airport.
The fastest option for this journey is to take a taxi, which you can find immediately, especially in the touristic areas of the city. The blue-white taxis from two different taxi companies are private taxis, and the yellow ones are those belonging to the state-affiliated NTO (National Tour Operation and Travel Agency). They still have a negotiable price chart, as they are already affiliated with the NTO.
Private taxis, on the other hand, can ask for up to 10 times more than this price tariff. Taxis do not have a meter, so it is recommended to agree on the price by telling your destination before boarding.
Minibuses you can get on from the city also carry their passengers from the city center to Addis Ababa Bole Airport. Tickets are paid on the bus to the driver. Depending on the traffic situation, the journey takes between 10-15 minutes after the minibus takes off.
You can also go to the airport with tricycles like Tuk Tuk, which you can see anywhere and anytime in the city center, which we are familiar with from the Far East. These vehicles, called Bajaj, can easily take two passengers and their luggage. Although the journey time may take a little longer, this is not a problem as the airport is only 6 km away.
If you want to go to the airport with a private transfer, you can book this transfer online or the front desk of the hotel you are staying will help you with this.
Transportation from Banjul Airport to City Center
Banjul, the second largest city in Gambia, is also the capital. Although tourists flock to the beaches and resorts in the city, which is sunny and warm all year round due to the climate of West Africa, Banjul offers an interesting experience to travelers with its rich historical texture and vegetation. In addition, Banjul, which is separated from the land by longoz forests, is an island city.
Banjul Airport, also known as Yundum International Airport, is located 26 km from the city center and main airport of Banjul, the capital city of Gambia, which was built during the Second World War. This airport is of great importance for the country's trade as one of the main entry-exit points of the country.
Taxis are the most comfortable option to go from Banjul Airport to the city center. Taxis, which you can recognize by their yellow-on-green color, do not have a taximeter, but just outside the terminal there are timetables for the main points in Banjul. If you are going to a place that is not on the list, you should definitely agree with the taxi driver before entering the vehicle.
Since there is no public transportation at Banjul Airport, bus or minibus-style transfer vehicles are specially arranged by the hotels. To reach Banjul from the airport, requesting a private transfer option from the hotel is a method preferred by many tourists. There are also private companies that provide transfers to Banjul Airport. The price of the airport private transfer you will make from a reliable tour company varies according to the type of vehicle and the number of people.
It is also possible to rent a car from Banjul Airport. Hertz company (tel: +220/9903919) has an office at the airport, but if you make a reservation online from other companies, they will come to you to deliver the vehicle when your flight lands.
