Good day to you all,

I have a training in Ghana in the coming months and I am planning to visit Abidjan by road.

I will like to know if it safe to go by road and how to go about it.

Regards

oray to God for journey mercy He that keep u will not sleep/slumber

my kid bro was robbed on that route this year. just no hold cash or phone. maybe carry small phone. when you reach. u arrange yourself. i heard it somehow tough

Ghana to Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire is very safe by road although it is a long journey but there is security all through the road and street lights if you wish to travel by night. Most of the southern west African cities are free of terrorism especially cities along the waterways. Just make sure you hold a valid passport and proof of accommodation both in Ghana and Abidjan. You can book online before you leave and it would really help if you understand a little bit of French.

Ans whatever you do pls do not miss your departure time. Au revoir!!!

It’s hard not to carry cash or smart phone on this journey.

What’s the implication of missing one’s departure date?

yeah. what i mean is little cash and a small phone.

all those routes are usually safe , i dont think you have any reason to be afraid

Nothing really, you just have to wait for the next available bus which may be days away.

It is very safe. Go to Circle in Accra and ask of Elubo bus. ( Try as much as you can to get Elubo direct) Hold some money for the Ghana police on the way and avoid any form of arguments with them if you are a Nigerian (They hate Nigerians). When you get to Elubo, I will advise you cross the border with other travelers (you will cross through water as the border is still closed). The agents will take you to the park (Côte d'Ivoire side) Join a bus going to Abidjan or if you want it faster, board the one going to Aboisso (1k-1k500). From Aboisso, board MD Transport to Abidjan (2k). Note, you will still settle police (around 7k) from the park to Abidjan. Safe trip

Honestly, there's no fixed cost but hold like 15k Fcfa for Ghana police, 15k Fcfa for border crossing, 7k Fcfa for Ivorian police, transport 15k Fcfa.
Note: All the given amounts are just estimates, it may be lower

Yes you can, just have a valid means of Identification. Though, people asking for your means of identification just need it to determine how much to bill you. Nigerians are billed highest.

is there no other way of visiting Abidjan that is legit?

I don’t feel comfortable crossing a border that is set to be officially closed.

Kindly share more light on this or advise on any other neighboring country that I can visit.

Thank you.
