No hustle at all. They were nice. You can decide wether you want to help them or not. They leave in the middle of nowhere with the worst road ever so maybe think about helping them a little bit

Report Check-In

please say you only have a card. They refused to open the gate because we didn't give any money. (they want any currency). When I said do you want to lose your job because everything is recorded. Still not opened. Then I said, do you open the gate now or must I do it. Then they were disappointed and opened the gate.

Report Check-In

crossed the bridge early in the morning around 7am and no one here asking for money.

legit! villagers build a bridge themselves (small wooden bridge next to concreet bridge in construction) the locals also pay. for car is should not be more than 500. they might try to get a bit more out of tourists

They tried charging us everything from 500 Niara to 1000, but we ended up giving them a single orange after waiting for 10 minutes and they let us keep moving.

we had no problem there, it was the usual "what do you have for us" but they didn't insist after we said we have no cash
