Ground Transportation

Taxis

Taxis are the most common and readily available option. They are located outside the arrivals terminal. It is essential to negotiate and agree on the fare with the driver before starting your journey. A trip to the city center typically costs between 10,000 and 15,000 CFA and takes 30-60 minutes, depending on traffic. Some hotels also offer pre-bookable shuttle services.

Rental Cars

Several car rental agencies, including international brands like Avis and local providers, have desks inside the arrivals hall. It is highly recommended to book your vehicle in advance. An International Driving Permit (IDP) is often required along with your valid home country's driver's license. Hiring a car with a local driver is also a popular option.

Public Transportation

There are no formal, scheduled public bus or train services that connect directly from the airport terminal to Yaoundé's city center. The primary and most reliable methods for reaching the city are by taxi, pre-arranged hotel shuttle, or a rental car.
