Always confirm your destination with the conductor before boarding, especially at transit points, to avoid getting on the wrong bus.

Traffic is highly unpredictable in Lagos; allow ample travel time, particularly during peak hours (6-9 AM, 4-8 PM) on weekdays.

Keep small denominations of Naira (e.g., ₦100, ₦200, ₦500) for bus fares as conductors often don't have change for large notes.

For a faster but significantly more expensive option, consider ride-hailing services like Bolt or Uber, especially if traveling in a group.

Be aware of your surroundings and keep valuables secure, particularly in crowded bus parks and during transfers.

Download a reliable map app (e.g., Google Maps) to track your journey and confirm directions, even if you are using public transport.
