Best Time to Travel
The best time to travel is mid-morning (10:00 AM - 1:00 PM) or early afternoon (2:00 PM - 4:00 PM) to avoid the worst traffic. Going very early in the morning (before 6:00 AM) can also make your journey much faster.
Safety Rating
Medium. Lagos roads are generally safe during the day, but you need to be careful. Criminals using 'one-chance' buses are common, especially on long bus routes and late at night. Pickpocketing happens often in crowded bus stops like Mile 2, CMS, and Obalende. Try not to travel late at night.
