I may be going to Ghana soon so i want to know if transport to ghana by road is safe and good? what are the challenges involved?

no reply?

Yes it is.
Do you plan driving there, or by public transport?

@ xreal by public transport.

@ xreal by public transport.

better, since it appears to be you first trip there by road.
You may board (direct) from 'Mile 2'.
No prbs at all.

ABC I know goes to Ghana.
I don't think you need a passport if you travel with them, as opposed to when you fly.
I'm looking to drive down there around Christmas time, with some friends. I hear there are some beaches on the Togo coastline worth exploring. What I decided to do is travel with ABC just to understand the route, then I'll drive down there myself. Should be doing the ABC journey in November.

There's really no need for a passport, but if you got one, do take it along. You'ld have to pay at the borders if you r nt with a passport.

Even with ABC? and what amount to pay?

Even with ABC.
Authorities(government) at the borders may ask everyone on board(excluding driver) to 'cross' on foot, then you 'ld have to present your passport or pay N500. Note:
1) you got NO busness with touts at the borders.
2) you'ld cross through 3 borders.

the REAL FUN is experienced traveling by road, you need to see those sexy girls on their power bikes -overtake your vehicle.
There are lots and
lots to behold in those french countries; including that 5-star hotel in Togo owned by one of our Generals.

It's a 9/10 hour journey, it cost btwn 5 - 7k (naira), depends on 'taste'.

Board ABC at amuwo odofin 5-7k,Young Shall Grow motors at mazamaza,same price,there is a little charge if u do not have a passport.
Better still book online in advance with www.flyaero.com you could fly for less than 15k
