Helpful Tips
Use the green-and-white Taxi-Collectif minivans that run fixed routes along Avenue Foch and Boulevard de la Révolution, wave and shout your destination to hop on.
Download the local ride-hailing app Yango before arrival; it's the most reliable way to book a private car at night.
For trips to the beach at Djeno, catch a shared taxi from the Gare de Moungali terminal, look for the signboard in the windshield.
The ferry to Kinshasa departs from the Beach Ngamankou port. Buy your ticket at the window labeled 'Brazza-Kin' and arrive 30 minutes early for passport checks.
Common Scams to Avoid
Unofficial porters at Maya-Maya Airport insist on carrying bags a few meters, then demand inflated fees. Firmly decline any unsolicited help and keep your luggage in hand.
Taxi touts inside the terminal quote fares several times the normal rate for the short ride to city center. Walk past them to the official taxi rank outside or pre-book through your hotel.
Currency-exchange men near baggage claim offer poor rates and may short-count bills. Use the airport bank counter or ATMs instead, and always count money in front of the changer if you must use them.
