Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 21, 2025
Taxis

Official tourist taxis (typically green) are the primary mode of transport from the airport. They are available directly outside the arrivals hall. Fares to major hotels and tourist areas are regulated and often displayed on a board; it is best to agree on the price with the driver before starting your journey.

Rental Cars

Several car rental agencies, including international brands like Avis and local companies, have counters located within the airport's arrivals hall. It is recommended to book in advance, especially during peak season. An International Driving Permit may be required along with your valid national license.

Public Transportation

There is no direct public bus or train service operating from the airport terminal. The most common form of public transit, shared minibuses known as 'gele-geles', can be found on the main highway outside the airport grounds. This is the cheapest option but is not recommended for first-time visitors with luggage due to crowding and a lack of fixed schedules.

A nice little airport with an outside cafe airside. Posted by on January 21, 2014
