Taxis are the primary and most convenient mode of transport from the airport to Bissau city center. They are readily available outside the arrivals terminal. Fares are not metered, so it is crucial to negotiate and agree on a price with the driver before beginning your trip. The journey to the city center is typically short.
Car rental options are limited directly at the airport. There are no major international car rental desks within the terminal. To rent a vehicle, it is highly recommended to make arrangements in advance through a local car hire company or your hotel. An International Driving Permit is often required.
There is no formal public bus or train service that directly serves Osvaldo Vieira International Airport. The local minibus system, known as 'toca-toca', does not have a dedicated route to the airport and is not a practical option for travelers with luggage. The most reliable options are taxis or pre-arranged private transfers.
