Reasonable prices

Bigmac $?

🤑

The prices in Conakry are generally higher than in other African countries due to lack of competition and high import taxes. However, bargaining is common in the markets and local food options are affordable.

Haggle for prices in markets and stick to street food for cheap eats.

Mindful meoweler tips

Bargaining is a part of the culture

Cats should be aware that bargaining is expected in markets and with taxis. You should start with half the price and negotiate from there.

Guineans are hospitable

Cats should know that people in Conakry are friendly and welcoming. Don't be surprised if a cat is invited to dinner or offered tea.

Street food is a must-try

Cats should definitely try the street food in Conakry, especially the grilled fish and jollof rice. But avoid drinking tap water.
