Travel to Conakry - Visa Requirements

The best air route is via Dakar, Senegal - a 1 hour flight on Air Senegal - on most days of the week.

The Atoll Island can be visited by getting on a boat at the fish market behind the Novotel Hotel.

The Soumba waterfalls is a 2 hour drive out of the city a short distance past Dubreka. There is also a restaurant to enjoy a nice meal with the roar of the water in the background. Have a swim to work up an appetite.

Jardin de Chine is a very safe bet with good food and quaint atmosphere.
Mouna Internet Cafe has very nice croissants for "on the run" snack.
The Lebanese restaurant Le Cedre is a bit hard to find (near Mouna Internet) but has nice food.

The nightlife starts quite late - just past midnight.

Timi's is a good venue (small, but alive).
Le Loft is a bit quieter and can be visited earlier in the night for a good vibe.

Novotel Hotel is a typical 7 floor hotel with swimming pool, dining room, bar, etc. and has good rooms, there is a gym, but not great at all.
Riviera Royal Hotel is all built on floor level and has a decent half Olympic size pool and good gym.
Hotel Camayene is a fine hotel but a bit smaller.
