By Land

Currently Sierra Leone can be accessed by road from Guinea (Conakry) Liberia (Monrovia). Special permits known as laissez-passer are required if transiting the boarder with a private vehicle. Private taxis, buses and trucks commute daily to and from Conakry/Freetown and Monrovia/Freetown.

By Sea

Sierra Leone has the third largest natural harbor in the world, and is looking forward to the arrival of Cruise ships.

Cargo and Passenger ships berth at the Queen Elizabeth II Quay, while some passenger/Cargo and private crafts can land at the Government Wharf in Central Freetown, arriving most times from Conakry and Banjul. Enquires should be made to Cargo Shipping Agencies.
