Transportation Etiquette in Guinea-Bissau

Shared taxis and minibuses are the normal way to get around, and they often leave only when full rather than on a strict timetable, so expect flexible departures and crowded rides. In Bissau and on the main roads, people also rely on informal moto-taxis and private cars, while travel outside the capital can be slow because road conditions and seasonal rains make schedules unreliable.
