Getting There

• Walking

  Start at the Port Loko town center. Head south on the main street towards the market area. Continue walking straight until you reach the junction with a large tree on your right. At this junction, turn left and continue along that road for about 10 minutes. You will pass several local shops and small eateries along the way. Keep an eye out for local signage pointing towards the church. After approximately 800 meters, you will see a sign for St. John's Maroon Church on your right. The church is situated in a small open area, making it quite visible from the road.

• Bicycle

  If you have access to a bicycle, start from the Port Loko town hall area. Head towards the main market and take the same route as if you were walking. Cycling will allow you to navigate the area more quickly; just be cautious of pedestrians and local traffic. Once you reach the large tree junction, turn left and continue straight for about 800 meters. You will notice the church sign on your right side.

• Motorbike Taxi (Okada)

  If you're looking to take a motorbike taxi, find a designated Okada stand in Port Loko. Inform the rider that you want to go to St. John's Maroon Church. The ride should take approximately 5-10 minutes depending on traffic. The motorbike will navigate through the streets, bypassing the more congested areas. You will be dropped off near the church, which is a recognizable landmark.
