Taxis are the most common and readily available option. You can find them waiting outside the arrivals hall. It is highly recommended to negotiate and agree on a fare before starting your journey. Ride-hailing services like Uber and Bolt also operate in Benin City and can be used for airport pickups, often providing a more standardized price.
Several local car rental companies offer services with airport pickup, which should typically be arranged in advance. While major international brands may not have desks inside the terminal, pre-booking online is possible. A popular and often recommended option is to hire a car with a local driver, which provides convenience and local knowledge.
There are no formal, scheduled public bus or train services that directly connect to Benin Airport. The city's public transport consists mainly of minibuses and motorcycle taxis ('okada'), which are not practical for travelers with luggage and do not follow fixed routes to the airport.
