Umher zu kommen

🚕
Moto-Taxi (Léo local transport) 200 CFA francs (£0.27)

Aubèrge Laafi Molo Molo → Léo town centre or market

10 min · on demand (flag down on street) · dawn to around 21:00 (drivers fewer after dark)

💡 Helmets are provided but often worn poorly — bring your own if you have space. Agree the fare before setting off; short hops within town are 200 CFA, longer rides to the outskirts 500 CFA. Drivers know the hotel by name.

🚌
Local Minibus (Léo to nearby villages) 300 CFA francs (£0.40)

Léo bus station (5 min walk from hotel) → Surrounding villages (e.g. Siby or Mondon)

30 min · every 30–60 minutes until early afternoon · 06:00 – 16:00 (service drops off after noon)

💡 These are minibuses (Alhamdou) that leave when full — expect a squeeze. No fixed timetable; just show up and wait. Useful for visiting the nearby Nazinga Ranch game reserve (ask the driver to drop you at the turn-off, then walk 2 km to the entrance).

🚕
Airport Taxi (Ouagadougou to Léo) 30000 CFA francs (£40)

Ouagadougou International Airport (OUA) → Aubèrge Laafi Molo Molo, Léo

180 min · on demand · 24 hours, but daylight travel safer

💡 Negotiate the price before you get in. Shared taxis (bush taxis) from Ouagadougou's main gare routière cost about 5000 CFA per seat but drop you at the Léo market, not the hotel. Best to pre-book a private car via the hotel if arriving late.

🚌
Stellauto Bus (Ouagadougou to Léo) 3500 CFA francs (£4.70)

Gare Routière de Ouagadougou → Gare Routière de Léo (then walk/taxi 5 mins to hotel)

210 min · twice daily (morning and early afternoon) · departures around 07:00 and 14:00

💡 Stellauto is the most reliable company on this route. Buses are air-conditioned but occasionally break down. Buy your ticket at the station an hour early — seats fill fast. From the Léo station, a moto-taxi to the hotel costs 200 CFA.

💡 Go late afternoon when the low sun casts long shadows and the carvings come alive. Bring water and a hat — there's no shade.

Ouagadougou Cathedral (Cathédrale de l'Immaculée-Conception) Free

💡 Sunday 9:30 mass includes a local choir singing in Mooré — you don't need to be religious to enjoy the energy. Dress modestly (cover shoulders and knees).

Place de la Nation Free

💡 Come early morning when it's quiet and you'll see the monument lit by golden light. Avoid midday when the reflection off the marble gets blinding.
