agadez-tam by public transport/share taxi/hitching
 

hi,
i will soon be travelling the route agadez-arlit-assamaka-in guezzam-tam using public transport/share-taxis/hitching.

can anyone tell me if it is still necessary to:
1. get a "vu au passage" stamp when leaving agadez
2. register with the authorities in arlit and assamaka
3. join a convoy anywhere on this route.

please only if you have the latest infos (ie 2002)

thank you

paul

There is no public transport and hitching for free is unknown, it will be back of a lorry or a clapped out share taxi unless you get lucky.

1. No
2. Arlit, do what the others do in the vehicle - driver will know. Assamaka, check out like any border.
3. Local vehicles do their own thing, you will be just a passenger.

let us know how it goes
