Road conditions: Guinea-Bissau's road network covers most of the area, but due to lack of maintenance and funding, many roads are in poor condition, especially in the rainy season, when many roads become muddy and difficult to pass.
Tocatoca: This is a small bus, similar to a microbus, and is one of the common public transportation in Bissau.
Taxi: Taxis are very common in Bissau and are divided into small vans with fixed routes and private taxis. These taxis usually do not have meters, so passengers should agree on the cost in advance.
Long-distance buses: Although not as frequent as the Tocatoca within the city, Guinea-Bissau also has buses that provide long-distance services to connect different cities and regions.
Car rental: Tourists can choose to rent a car and drive themselves, but they need to pay attention to road conditions and driving habits. Vehicles in Guinea-Bissau are left-hand drive and right-hand drive.
Water transportation:
Ferry and small boats are important means of transportation connecting the two sides of the river, and are also one of the only ways to connect islands and remote areas. The Port of Bissau is the main port in Guinea-Bissau, handling most of the import and export goods. It is also an important passenger transportation center for domestic and international routes.
