Ground Transportation

Last updated: Nov 21, 2025

Taxis

Taxis are readily available outside the arrivals terminal. These are typically yellow saloon cars. It is essential to negotiate and agree on the fare with the driver before starting your journey, as they are not metered. Alternatively, ride-hailing services like Gozem are popular in Cotonou and can offer a more standardized pricing experience.

Rental Cars

Several international and local car rental companies have desks inside the arrivals hall or operate nearby. Major brands like Avis and Europcar are present, alongside local providers. It is highly recommended to book your vehicle in advance, especially during peak seasons. Hiring a car with a local driver is also a common and often preferred option.

Public Transportation

There are no formal public bus or train services that directly serve Cadjehoun Airport. The most common form of public transport in Cotonou are motorcycle taxis, known as 'zémidjans' or 'zems'. While they are a fast way to get around the city, they are not a practical option for travelers with luggage directly from the airport terminal.
