Travel hack

Getting from Dakar's airport to the city center

Fastest options: taxi or private transfer. Best value: public bus (DDD) or shared minibus (car rapide).

Dakar is served by Blaise Diagne International Airport (DSS), located approximately 47 km southeast of the city center. The airport opened in 2017 and replaced the former Léopold Sédar Senghor International Airport. Airport transfers to city center destinations include taxis, private transfers, the AIBD Express bus service, public buses, and ride-hailing apps. Journey times vary significantly depending on traffic conditions, particularly during peak hours when congestion on the main routes into Dakar can be substantial.

Notes:

  • Prices in XOF (West African CFA franc); table created in 2025 and subject to change.
  • Traffic congestion between the airport and Dakar city center can be significant, especially during morning and evening rush hours.
  • Official airport taxis operate with fixed zone-based pricing; agree on the fare before departure.
  • The toll road (Autoroute à péage) offers faster travel times but incurs additional toll fees of approximately 2,400 XOF.
  • We recommend checking official transport websites for your travel planning.
