Travelling by car in Mogadishu, Somalia

Posted 1 year ago by avatar casper in response to avatar hans's question: how are the roads in Somalia? Will I be able to travel by car? (give a different answer) .

Actually, it would be difficult to travel outside Mogadishu by car. Existing roads run from the capital to Burao and Baidoa and there are sealed roads between Kismayu and Mogadishu, and Hargeisa and Mogadishu. Passenger transport is restricted almost entirely to road transport. There are few cars and buses, although there are reasonable bus services between the major centers in the south.
In Mogadishu you could find a taxi or rent a car, for which an International Driving Permit is required.
