❓Route FAQ
What is the best time to travel to avoid heavy traffic?
To significantly minimize traffic delays, it's advisable to travel very early in the morning (before 6:30 AM) or later in the evening (after 7:00 PM) on weekdays. Weekends generally offer lighter traffic, but mid-day can still be congested, especially around market areas.
Is it safe to travel by public transport in Lagos?
While generally safe, it's crucial to exercise caution. Be vigilant about your belongings, especially in crowded bus stops and inside buses, to avoid pickpockets. Avoid displaying expensive gadgets openly and always use major, well-lit bus stops.
Should I carry cash or rely on cashless payments?
For commercial buses (Danfo) and Keke Napep, cash (preferably in smaller denominations) is absolutely essential. For ride-hailing services, cashless options (card payment via the app) are common and often preferred. However, it's always wise to have some cash on hand for any unforeseen circumstances or if a driver requests it.
What if I have heavy luggage?
If you are traveling with heavy or bulky luggage, ride-hailing services offer the most comfort and convenience. If you must use commercial buses, be aware that you might need to pay an extra fare for your luggage, and navigating multiple transfers with heavy bags can be quite challenging.
