Kotoka International Airport

Airport Residential, Accra · Greater Accra

Ghana's main international gateway, about 8 km north-east of the city centre, and the point where almost every trip to the country begins.

The local tip

Change a small amount of money inside for the taxi and buy a SIM at the arrivals hall, then do the rest in town where the rates are better. Agree the fare or use a ride-hailing app rather than taking the first driver who approaches you.

Check before leaving

Terminal arrangements and the arrival process change. Check with your airline and the Ghana Airports Company before you travel.
