Info about Guinè Conakry
 

Hi,
around the middle of January we will be in Guinè Conakry coming from Guinè Bissau with our car.
Anybody have info about the situation there?
Anybody have info about the best route to take to get in?
Thank you and best regards!

Hi Piero and Mirella,

Since you are with a car, you definitely don't want to cross from Guinea Bissau to Guinea Conakry by the Contabane border near Quebo. It is fun offroad riding on a bike but is not possible on a car because of the sand, deep lori tracks, good size river to cross and a small but steep rocky section.

Your options are either to cross in the north at Buruntuma or south of Quebo at Cadembel (Make sure the ferry is working if you cross there).

Thank you Patrick,
we are now in Nouakchott and we will check while we will be in Bissau
Best regards

Totally agree with PatonTrip, I would advise going up to Gabu and crossing in via Koundara, we have a resident specialist on West Africa Travellers who's in the Fouta Djallon area of Guinea who can give you up to date information

Bonne route
