Start your journey early, preferably before 6:00 AM, to significantly reduce travel time, especially on the Lekki-Epe Expressway and Apapa-Oshodi Expressway corridor.

Always carry smaller denominations of Naira (₦100, ₦200, ₦500 notes) as bus conductors often do not have change for larger bills.

Be highly vigilant and mindful of your personal belongings, especially in crowded buses and bus stops. Keep your phone, wallet, and valuables secure.

Confirm the destination and fare with the conductor *before* boarding any bus or Keke Napep to avoid misunderstandings or overcharging.

During heavy traffic or if carrying substantial luggage, consider using a ride-hailing service (e.g., Bolt, Uber) for the final leg from Mile 2 to Alaba International Market, though it will be significantly more expensive.
