Getting from Dakar city center to Dakar airport

Dakar is served by Blaise Diagne International Airport (DSS), located approximately 47 km northeast of the city center in Diass. Travelers heading to the airport from central Dakar can choose from several transport options including taxis, public buses operated by Dakar Dem Dikk, ride-hailing services, and private transfers. Journey times vary considerably depending on traffic conditions and the time of day. Planning your airport transfers from the city center in advance is strongly recommended, particularly during peak hours.

Notes:

  • Prices in XOF; table created in 2026 and subject to change.
  • Taxi fares in Dakar are typically negotiated before the journey as meters are not commonly used. Always agree on a price before departure.
  • Journey times are estimates and are heavily traffic dependent, particularly on the Route de l'Aéroport and the VDN expressway during peak hours.
  • The Dakar Dem Dikk airport bus service schedule should be confirmed directly with the operator as timetables may vary seasonally.
  • Prices are subject to change. We recommend checking official transport websites for your travel planning.
