Storage Upolu Airport

Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Samoa

My boyfriend and I are cycling around Samoa for a couple of weeks. We arrive at the airport on Upolu late at night and were wondering if there are any storage facilities there so that we can leave our bike boxes?
Also, wondering about accomodation/transport seeing as we arrive at 10:30pm.

Any thoughts/advice? Cheers :)

I didn't see any such thing at APW airport when I hung around waiting for my plane.

What I would recommend is that you get in contact with Bertie's (www.berties.org) who offer a very competitive package of airport pick-up and accomodation. Their mini bus should be big enough for your two bikes and I really appreciated the air condition in the room for the first couple of nights. I'm sure they'll store the bike boxes for you while you tour the islands if you book the transfers with them.
