Taxis

Formal, metered taxi services are generally not available. Local private vehicle owners often act as informal taxis and wait for arriving flights. It is crucial to negotiate and agree upon a fare before beginning your trip. The safest and most reliable method is to pre-arrange an airport transfer directly with your hotel or lodge.

Rental Cars

There are no major international car rental agencies located at Wapenamanda Airport. Car hire is extremely limited and typically must be arranged in advance through local hotels, guesthouses, or tour operators. Rentals in this region almost always come with a local driver; self-drive options are virtually non-existent and not recommended for visitors.

Public Transportation

There is no scheduled public bus or train service at the airport. The primary form of public transport in the region is the PMV (Public Motor Vehicle), which are privately-owned minibuses or trucks. PMVs operate on informal routes without a fixed schedule and can be crowded. They are not a direct airport service and may not be a practical option for travelers with luggage.
