Haiti What to Expect

The sewers that run in front of the buildings are used for all forms of disposal, but are often played in by the children. Meat is available from traveling wheelbarrow salesman. The rules of the road are basically non-existent, and driving is not recommended for non-locals. You should definitely have a local guide for any travels in this part of Haiti.

Really not too much here. I crossed from Dajabon on the Dominican side to here. The market is dusty and dirty. Found a couple of decent stores selling voodoo maks and the sorts. Saw a big building on the outskirts of town where apparantly a few people met their maker courtesy of Papa Doc.

Know the language, have an army, or damn good guide!

Very few places to stay overnight. Very interesting city, but be aware: poverty is everywhere, you'll be hackled continously.

basically this is a piece of land specially for tourist coming of certain cruise lines you dont see the real haiti of course there are some good artist over there and they will always try to put you up to buying something

The best hotel in Port-au-Prince is the Hotel Montana, (the restaurant has great meals, but expensive), for your grocery needs, try the Caribbean market, and have a good pizza at Domino's Pizza in Pétionville . Be careful and have a great time.

Pretty drive, but not much to see. The French Red Cross is up here, as well as an airfield that Missionary Flights International uses. Fresh water problems, as evidenced by the three community wells located in the center of town, only one of which worked as of April 2007. The salt flats on the road to Gonaives are the most interesting things to see around Anse Rouge.
