Bamako Getting there & around

Getting around

The official rate from the airport to the city centre by private taxi is US$13.50, although it should cost US$9 going the other way.

The battered green Sotramas run from central Bamako to the gares routières and the outer suburbs for between US$0.15 and US$0.30.

The longest journey (such as Sogoniko gare routière to Hippodrome) in a private taxi should never cost more than CFA2000.
