At the airport there are also ATMs as well as currency exchange offices where you can arrange banking transactions. It is possible to reach different cities of the world such as Istanbul, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Nairobi and Jeddah from the city.
Transportation means are not too much and varied for travelling from Mogadishu Airport to the city center, as well as within the center of the city. Still, taxis and rental cars are ready to transport passengers from the airport to the city center in Mogadishu. If you do not want to use a taxi, there is also a chance to rent a car in the city. However, these tools are not large in number and you are not offered a wide range of models. Nevertheless, it is much more convenient, faster and safer than public transport in the city center.
Security is a very important issue in Mogadishu. It is not recommended that foreigners travel alone due to frequent terrorist incidents in the country. If you are coming to town for business and want to visit different parts of the country, you can evaluate the car rental option. While the prices of public transport are affordable in the city, foreigners are not advised to use these means. However, if you want to get public transportation in the city, make sure you have a local guide and do not leave your valuables unattended.
Taxi
Taxis in the city that can help you to easily reach from the airport to the city center of Mogadishu are almost the only option for foreign tourists. You can find yourself in the center of Mogadishu in just a few minutes by taking a taxi from the airport terminal building. If you want to get to the city center by taxi, it is enough to take one of the vehicles waiting for you after you leave the terminal. Make sure you make a deal about the price with the driver before boarding the taxi. Taxi drivers in the city can charge high fares especially from foreign tourists. Before you come to the country or at the airport you will be able to make your business much easier by exchanging your money into the Somali Shilling, the currency of the country.
Car Rental

Bus
Once you reach the city center from the airport, you can continue by bus. In Mogadishu, buses are often preferred by local people. That's why it's almost always crowded.

Nevertheless, if you use your preference on the buses, make sure that you have a local guide or a person who knows the city well with you. You can pay for the buses in cash, but make sure you get the currency shilling. In this case, you can complete your journey at much more affordable prices than currencies like dollars or euros.

The airport also has pausing, waiting and parking areas reserved for those arriving by private vehicle. You have a chance to leave your car in these parking lots for a few hours or a few days. However, remember that parking fees are not very low, especially if you pay after 3 days.
