Getting around Ivory Coast

Road quality:

Road conditions are poor, but improving, especially in the capital, where new roads and bridges have been constructed. Drivers should be aware of potholes, poorly lit vehicles and bad driving.

Car hire:

You can hire cars in Abidjan, main towns and at the airport.

Taxi:

These are available in main cities, although are often of unsound mechanical condition.

Documentation:

Insurance is compulsory for the driver. The driver requires a national driving licence, accompanied by attestation from the embassy of the issuing country that it is genuine.

Getting around towns and cities:

Extensive bus and boat services are operated in Abidjan by SOTRA (www.sotra.ci). Taxis are usually red and metered; rates are doubled from 0000-0600.

Rail:

The Abidjan-Ouagadougou railway is one of the most efficient in Africa and runs trains daily from Abidjan to Bouaké and Ferkessédougou.
