Cadjehoun Airport is located just west of city centre and has scheduled services from most African capitals as well from Brussels and Paris. Short-haul flights from nearby Lagos are a popular way of reaching Benin.

Buses from nearby capitals Accra, Lagos and Lome are plentyful, amongst others ABC Transport [1] offers daily services.

There have not been any regular passanger rail services for decades in Benin but if looking for a more leisurly way of traveling between Cotonou and the northen city of Parakou then the Train d’Ebene, a train composed of vintage 1920s railroad cars, is recomended. It's operated by Voyageur SARL [2] and avalible for group bookings.
