Traveling by road from Mongomoyen Airport to Mongomo city is approximately 20 minutes. Travelling by road from Bata to Mongomo city is two hours approximately.

The Ministry wishes to advice all prospective Football Officials and supporters to make arrangements before the scheduled date considering that there are few hotels and private residences on rent in Mongomo with a high demand due to the influx of people during the football period.
As it is the practice, the quoted prices may shoot up as a result of such high demand therefore, it is advisable for one to consider making arrangements ahead of time to avoid any inconveniences.
