Car rental at the Port Bouet Airport

Car Rental at Port Bouet Airport

Several international and local car rental services have their stations at Port Bouet Airport. Some reputed ones are Avis, Europcar, and Hertz. Here are a few tips to ensure a seamless car rental experience:

Driving in Ivory Coast

Driving in Ivory Coast can be quite different from the UK. Vehicles drive on the right side of the road, unlike the UK where vehicles drive on the left. Also, road conditions may vary, therefore consider a vehicle that can handle less-than-ideal road situations.

Gas Stations and Accessibility

Several petrol stations can be found within a 15km radius of the airport. Not all of them accept credit cards, so it's a good idea to keep local currency — the West African CFA franc, on hand.

Climate and What to Pack

Ivory Coast experiences a tropical climate. Light, breathable fabrics are ideal to combat the heat, and don't forget your sunscreen and hats! To help you plan, the average temperatures are below:

Discover Surrounding Cities

The capital city, Yamoussoukro, and popular tourist hubs such as Jacqueville and Grand-Bassam, are just a few hours drive from the airport.

So gear up for an amazing adventure with your loved ones, and enjoy everything that Ivory Coast has to offer from the comfort of your hired car. Safe travels!
