Transportation from the City Center to Hargeisa Airport

Hargeisa Airport (HGA), officially Egal International Airport, is the international airport of Hargeisa, the capital of Somaliland, an autonomous region within Somalia. The name of Egal International Airport is dedicated to the second president of Somaliland, Muhammad Haji Ibrahim Egal. Businesses related to retailing, stonemasonry and construction industry are carried out in the region.

There has been a settled life in Hargeisa since ancient times. The rock arts on the rocks close to the city are the best proof of this. Dating back to the Neolithic era, these paintings are some of the best of their kind. In the country, you can experience the real Africa, participate in off-road tours and taste local dishes.

Somaliland has somehow isolated itself from the political instability of Somalia, to which it is affiliated, and has become a relatively safe region compared to Somalia. However, knowing that you are on the territory of Somalia, which is considered one of the most dangerous countries in the world, you need to act cautiously and not give up security.

Many foreign government officials, businessmen and tourists visiting Somaliland prefer the Ambassador Hotel or the Mansoor Hotel, considering the strong security measures they have taken to stay. The fact that these hotels are far from the city and close to the airport also plays a major role in this.

For security reasons, it is recommended to walk around Hargeisa with armed guards and a taxi or guide you trust. This recommendation also applies to your journey from the city center to the airport.

Hargeisa International Airport is just six kilometers from the city center and the journey takes about 25 minutes. If you don't have any concerns about security, you can take a taxi to go to the airport. The reception of your hotel will call a taxi for you.

If you have come to Somaliland for business, you can ask the company you are visiting or a colleague to drop you off at the airport. So you can go to your flight without having to worry about security.
