Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 23, 2025
Taxis

Taxis are the primary and most convenient transportation option from Bahir Dar Airport (BJR). You will find both private blue taxis and shared blue-and-white minibus taxis waiting outside the terminal for all arriving flights. Fares are generally negotiable and should be agreed upon with the driver before beginning your trip. Many hotels also offer pre-arranged shuttle or pickup services.

Rental Cars

Car rental services are not available directly at the airport from major international companies. Renting a vehicle, which almost always includes a driver, must be arranged in advance. This can be done through local tour operators or your hotel in Bahir Dar. This is a practical option for those planning to visit sites outside the city, such as the Blue Nile Falls.

Public Transportation

There is no scheduled public bus service that directly serves the airport. The closest equivalent is using a shared minibus taxi. For transport within the city of Bahir Dar, three-wheeled auto-rickshaws (known as 'bajajs') are a very common and affordable mode of transport, but they are less frequently used for the airport-to-city journey.
