Five questions to settle with the transport provider
Ask for these answers in writing and keep them with the booking for the journey from Janjanbureh to Serekunda. A reliable reply should identify the actual transport chain, exact meeting points, total charge and named handover at the destination—not merely repeat the two place names.
- Where exactly should I report in Janjanbureh, and which terminal, gate, hotel entrance, jetty or landmark identifies the pickup?
- Is this one continuous journey to Serekunda, or will I change vehicles, terminals, airports, ferries or drivers along the way?
- What is included in the quoted price, and can fuel, tolls, border charges, parking, waiting time or luggage create an extra payment?
- What luggage is accepted for this service, where will it be stored, and what happens if a bag is oversized, fragile or delayed?
- Who is responsible for the final handover in Serekunda, and which working telephone number and fallback meeting point should I save?
