Book Travel on Sociedada De Aviacao Ligeira

1. Utilize the services of a travel agent with a track record of booking flights in the region. An agent with this kind of background will have the insight necessary to engineer an itinerary that will keep you out of harm's way.
2. Plan to have a car service meet you at the airport. Trying to find a taxi in Angola is like trying to find a needle in a haystack, and once you do find one, they can be prohibitively expensive. The public transportation system is rife with overcrowded, potentially unsafe vehicles, and is not recommended for tourists.
3. Choose your hotel carefully. There are many hotels in Angola that offer unacceptable facilities. The best are to be found in the capital city of Luanda.

Prepare to Travel in Angola

4. Portuguese is the sole language spoken by most Angolans (the country was a Portuguese colony for many years), and knowledge of at least a few phrases will help facilitate your travels within the country.
5. Educate yourself by paying a visit to the U.S. State Department's Web site (see below) to take a look at the latest travel warnings concerning Angola. You'll find a plethora of practical information on the site designed to help visitors to Angola maintain a safe environment during their travels.
6. Get a yellow-fever vaccination if you haven't been inoculated against the disease within the past 10 years. You will need to present proof of vaccination once you touch down in Angola. If you arrive without these documents, you could be subject to exclusion and on-the-spot vaccination.

Navigate Angola

7. Soak up the sun at the beaches of Ilha do Cabo, Mussulo, Palmeirinhas, Corimba and Santiago. These beaches are all close to Luanda. Angola's difficult history has been a deterrent to tourism, so those who do visit will find pristine beaches unspoiled by throngs of vacationers.
8. Avoid taking photographs in public places. Though the war is over, Angola remains under tight security restrictions. If the Angolan police spot you taking pictures, you could be subject to stiff fines and possible detention.
