Mbaïki travel guide
Getting there
Between Bangui and Mbaiki is the best road available in the Central African Republic. You have to pay a minor fee to use it, but you can consider yourself lucky to have a real piece of tarmac. There are plenty of potholes and do not use at night. It is about 120 kilometers. If you go by car, you can, but you need a fourwheel drive.
Getting around
Before reaching you pass the village of Pissa, where you can take a rest. Better however continue to halfway Pissa - Mbaiki, because there are the beautiful falls of Mbeko. You can reach them after a nice walk in the rainforest.
Go next
South of Mbaiki you can visit pygmy villages. Bangui - Pissa = 80 km tarmac Pissa - Mbaiki = 30 km tarmac Mbaiki - Pygmee = 30 km dirt
