Although the tuk tuks, three-wheeled motor vehicles, are the most commonly used transportation vehicles in the city, it is not possible to reach the airport with only these vehicles.
Some hotels in Khartoum offer shuttle service to the airport. Without leaving it to the last day, you can get information about prices and whether or not your hotel provides this service. If you will be arriving at the airport in this way, you should definitely book via your hotel in advance. You can negotiate the price.

Most of the hotels also offer airport shuttle service for extra fee.
It is possible to reach the Tripoli city center in an average of 30 minutes by taking a taxi from the front of the airport. However, you should definitely agree with the taxi drivers about where you will go and negotiate the fare.
