Ouagadougou Getting there & around

Getting there & away

Most buses leave from their own private depots, which are dotted around town. Most useful are Transport Confort Voyageurs (TCV; 50 39 87 77; Rue de la Mosquée), which has services to Bobo-Dioulasso (US$11, five hours, five daily), and STMB (50 31 34 34; off Rue Commerce), which has good buses to Bobo-Dioulasso, Dori and Ouahigouya.

Most bush taxis and minibuses leave in the early morning from the gare routière (bus station), 4km south of the city centre.
