Navigating from Ajah to the bustling Balogun Market on Lagos Island can be a lengthy but straightforward journey using public transport. This guide focuses on the most common and budget-friendly option: the commercial Danfo bus, outlining steps, estimated costs, and essential tips for a smooth trip in, considering stabilized inflation and higher prices than 2024.
Distance
38.0 km
Duration
3h 0m
Total Cost
β¦1200 - β¦2100
Head to the nearest major bus stop in Ajah (e.g., Ajah Roundabout, Abraham Adesanya, Ilaje) and board a direct Danfo bus heading towards 'CMS' (Marina) or 'Obalende'. CMS is generally preferred as it offers a shorter final walk to Balogun Market.
The bus will take you through the Lekki-Epe Expressway, across the Lekki Toll Gate, through Victoria Island, and eventually onto Lagos Island, terminating at CMS (Marina) or Obalende. This is the longest leg of your journey.
If you alight at CMS Bus Stop, Balogun Market is a short walk away. Ask for directions to 'Balogun Market' or 'Idumota'. It's typically a 10-15 minute walk through the bustling streets.
If you alight at Obalende, you'll need to take another short bus (e.g., to Idumota) or Keke Napep ride across Carter Bridge to 'Idumota' or directly to 'Balogun Market'. Specify your destination clearly to the driver.
