Transportation from the City Center to Yaoundé Airport
Yaoundé, the capital city of Cameroon, is the country's second largest city after Douala. There are two airports in the city. One of them, Yaoundé Airport (YAO), is also known as Yaoundé Ville Airport.
Cameroon gained its independence from France in 1960. The most interesting aspect of this reflected in tourism is that it is the only country in the region that has not had any problems in this regard by maintaining its political stability since the 80s.
With the untouched rainforests of Cameroon and the wild life still prevailing in these forests, it promises a different holiday in nature. It is worth remembering that walking around the city of Yaoundé, which is mentioned as "the city built on seven hills" in some sources, can be very tiring for this reason.
Many hotels of Yaoundé provide airport shuttle services to their customers. Before you go to the airport, you can contact the reception of the hotel you are staying at and find out if they provide a shuttle service to the airport.
If your hotel provides this service, you should definitely purchase this service. If not, you can book an airport transfer from an online website. Since being a tourist in the city requires being alert at all times, it is recommended to get a reliable transfer service in order to be less stressed and not be scammed.
You can also go to the airport by shared taxis, which you can find in the city, especially near touristic spots. These taxis work with the logic of dolmuş and take off when they complete the number of passengers.
If you want to set off immediately, you can pay the other passengers' share and set off immediately. Since these taxis do not have a taximeter, it is recommended to discuss and agree on the price you will pay in advance.
If you came here for business, you can ask a colleague or the company you work for to drop you off at the airport.
