**Peak Hours:** Avoid traveling during morning (6:00 AM - 9:00 AM) and evening (4:00 PM - 8:00 PM) peak hours, as traffic can significantly extend travel time and fares might be slightly higher.

**Cash is King:** Always carry sufficient smaller denominations of Naira, as bus conductors often don't have change for large notes.

**Ask Questions:** If unsure, don't hesitate to ask conductors or fellow passengers for directions or confirmation of your route.

**Safety:** Keep your belongings secure and be aware of your surroundings, especially in crowded bus stops.

**Ride-Hailing Alternative:** For a more comfortable and direct journey, consider using ride-hailing services like Bolt or Uber. Expect costs to range from ₦6,000 to ₦12,000 depending on traffic and surge pricing in.
