Helpfulness
The best way to get to Paga when you are coming from Bolgatanga is by shared taxi. Both from the taxi rank and from the central Tro-Tro station, they depart very often. You should really ask for a SHARED taxi, otherwise they will probably take you to Paga with a private one which costs at least 5 times the normal price.
It takes less then half an hour to get there and it only costs 15.000 cedis per person ($ 1,50). When you get to Paga it is wise to tell the driver where you want to get out: at the Chief's Palace, the Crocodile Pond or the border, because everything is quite far apart. There is no difference in price by the way.
When you want to get back it is the easiest to stop a shared taxi heading for Navrongo. There are hardly any taxi's heading straight to Bolga. In Navrongo you can change vehicle and take another shared taxi to Bolgatanga. The total price for these two lifts is also 15.000 cedis.
