Brazzaville's first surprise is its airport. Ultra-modern, made of glass and steel, it marks a break with its predecessor, a small, dilapidated building where travellers jostled to get to the counters. When you disembark, you'll need to present your yellow fever vaccination certificate. Don't forget it, along with your other travel documents! Then it's just a matter of waiting until you reach the police station, where you'll be checked. All in all, it will take you about an hour and a half to get out of the airport.

The Ivorian company's buses - real long-haul buses in fairly good condition - cover much of the north of the country.

To make a reservation, you'll have to wait at the company's ticket office.

Yoro harbour is an Enclave at the end of Mpila. The place is named after Yéro Thiam, Senegalese owner in the 1950 s of the land where the port is established. Its isolated situation in the city centre by the deposits of beverages, hydrocarbons and old shipyards gives the curious impression of leaving the capital. A point, planted in the middle of a small roundabout with the inscription «Saint Tropez», can lead to an abuse of palm or tropical heat. In the port area where a large fish market is being held, the detritus of the streets shows the intense activity of the place. The port, past a customs station that looks like a cabane hut abandoned, is installed along a cove at the confluence of the Tsieme and Congo. A few dozen canoes are moored there. Mpila was, before French colonization, a téké village and a prosperous port of commerce. The last colonial leader of the village, Mbankwa, died in 1916 and was buried here. His grave, characterized by an opening to nourish the spirit of the deceased by offering, in agreement with batéké mortuary rites, is now forgotten. Close to the old shipyards.

It's easy to connect to a variable that can cure if you are in the neighborhood. Possibility to connect your laptop.

A small cafe on the first floor of a shop carrying out digital prints with a good connection. Some computers in good condition, air-conditioned room, very clean, separate workstation with wooden partitions, possibility to connect its own computer… damage that reception is so unpleasant.

Small cybercafé on the connection as fast as the IFC. Flat room, air conditioning.

Pleasant high-quality internet café with a well-ventilated ceiling with clocks, a black and white film airport, giving the wall the time of distant capital.

Air-conditioned Internet café, nice, quality computers, generally good connection.

Forget it, it doesn't work, at least not in the terms that are known to you. You'll be able to send a postcard from the Congo if you would like it but don't put it in the beautiful mailboxes you'll find in town: we throw peanuts… and your letter will remain there until your next passage! If the letters «pass» in ten or fifteen days for a shipment between Paris and Brazzaville, the receipt of parcels is more random, call private companies for completely safe shipments. For those planning to settle in the Congo, the opening of a post-secondary box is required: this is the main activity of this major central position.
