TRANSPORTI PUBBLICI

by grazy56

BUS: raggiungono solo le città importanti come Sana'a, Mareb, Hodeida, Hajja, Aden, Mukhala e altri centri: informazioni presso l'ufficio del turismo vicino alla Posta principale di Sana'a. I bus hanno orari regolari, posti numerati e si consiglia di prenotare la vigilia. Oltre ai bus locali lontani dai standard occidentali, la compagnia Yemit CO propone gli stessi tragitti con bus moderni e climatizzati, sedili cuccette. Tariffe fisse. Anche se la rete stradale migliora ogni anno diversi siti e villaggi rimangono accessibili solo con le jeep.TASSI COLLETTIVI: partono delle stazioni speciali “taxi”. Partono solo quando l'autista considera il suo veicolo pieno! (con una nozione tutta sua del pieno!) È il mezzo di trasporto il più economico se non si soffre di claustrofobia e se non si ha paura della guida “sportiva” di certi autisti. A volte alcuni rifiutano di prendere turisti perché ai...

TRANSPORTS PUBLICS

BUS: ne relient que les principales villes comme Sana'a, Mareb, Hodeidda, Hajja, Aden, Mukkhala…:renseignements à l'office du tourisme près de la poste principale de Sana'a. Les bus ont des prix fixes, des horaires réguliers, des places numérotées et il est conseillé de réserver la veille. En plus des bus locaux parfois éloignés de nos notions de confort, la compagnie Yemit CO propose les mêmes trajets avec des bus climatisés, modernes et sièges couchettes. Cependant, même si le réseau routier s'améliore chaque année de nombreux sites et villages ne sont accessibles qu'en 4X4.* LES TAXIS COLLECTIFS:prix fixes et moyen très économique, partent des gares spéciales "taxi " et ne partent que si le chauffeur considère son taxi plein! (avec une notion bien particulière de plein!): ne pas souffrir de claustrophobie et craindre la conduite "sportive" de certains chauffeurs. Parfois certains...

PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION

by grazy56

BUSES: run only to and from big towns as Sana'a, Taëz, Mareb, Hoddeidah, Hajja, Adem , Mukhalla… information near the central post office on tourism office in Sana'a. buses have fixed prices, regular time table, seats with number and so better to reserve one day before. If the local buses have a different standard to whom we are used Yemit Co have air condition buses with sleeping seats. As even the roads are better each year many small villages and areas can be reached only by jeep.PUBLIC TAXIS: fixed prices and cheap way to visit the country, run from special station called “taxi” and run only if full. Sometimes some public taxi don't accept tourists as police control longer. Just know you can be 10 on a jeep!AUTO STOP: only possible on the important roads , on the secondary roads really difficult to find a vehicle who will accept to charge you. Trucks will accept you without...

in the past years some tribes kidnapped people and so now you need a permit delivered by the police to discover the country. Sometimes some areas can be close for tourism. If you choose public transportation or a jeep with a driver you will need the permits. Traveling with a driver you reduce thee risk of misadventure because the driver warrants your security. To reach and visit some areas you will need a military escort and as the police control this service is free but sometimes you will have to give a tip.les tribus armées avaient, les dernières années, pris l'habitude de recourir à l'enlèvement d'étrangers afin d'obtenir des subsides et des infrastructures, aussi les autorités yéménites ont pris un certain nombre de mesures pour assurer la sécurité des touristes: autorisation delivrée par la Police pour circuler dans le pays (parfois exclusion temporaire de certaines zones) et...

SCORTA MILITARE

by grazy56

anche se i sequestri di turisti sono ora quasi inesistenti non devono essere totalmente sottovalutati. Per assicurare la sicurezza dei viaggiatori, le autorità hanno provveduto con misure speciali : occorre un permesso di circolazione rilasciato dalla Polizia (a volte sospeso per certe zone) e sono stati intensificati i controlli. Scegliere il mezzo pubblico o la jeep a noleggio non dispensano dal permesso e dai controlli . Con un autista i rischi di disavventure sono limitati perché garantisce una certa professionalità e sicurezza. Per certe zone una scorta militare è prevista e come per i vari posti di controlli sono esenti da pagamento, ma a volte è difficile passare o farsi scortare senza dover pagare un bakchich.SCORTA: a causa degli ultimi avvenimenti internazionali per alcune zone è necessario avere una scorta. I militari sono molto gentili e seppur il servizio sia gratuito vi...

Il faut savoir que choisir un moyen de transport public ou un véhicule de location avec chauffeur, les contrôles et l'autorisation de circuler restent obbligatoires. En voyageant avec un chauffeur vous diminuez les risques de mésaventures car il garantit un maximun de professionnalisme et de sécurité. Pour circuler dans certaines régions, l'escorte militaire est obligatoire, et comme les contrôles de Police elle est exemptée de taxes, mais il vous sera souvent difficile de passer ou de vous...

Yemenia in the air!

by Pakistaniguy

Though this Yemenia flight from Sanaa to Djibouti city was around 2 hrs but they used good planes with TV and they were showing the flight status and map time to time in order to update its passengers about the location of the plane and flight time left. I wasn't expecting such things in such a short flight from a small airline like Yemenia but it was a good surprise.
