Showing the primary/fastest route plan
Walk from B Close to the Banana Island Gate/Roundabout. Keke Napep (tricycles) might not be allowed to enter the inner parts of Banana Island, so you'll likely need to meet one at the gate.
From the Banana Island Gate, negotiate with a Keke Napep driver for a 'drop' (direct, private trip) to your specific location on Ikoyi Club Road. Always confirm the price before starting the journey.
The Keke Napep will take you through Banana Island Road, Turnbull Road, Gerrard Road, Osborne Road, Mobolaji Johnson Road, and finally to Ikoyi Club Road.
Arrive at your destination on Ikoyi Club Road.

Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6:30 AM) and late evenings (after 7:30 PM) usually offer the quickest travel times. Mid-day (10:00 AM - 2:00 PM) can also be less congested. It's best to avoid peak hours: 7:00 AM - 9:30 AM and 4:00 PM - 7:00 PM, as the 10-minute estimate can easily turn into 30-60 minutes.
Safety Rating
Medium. While this route passes through generally secure, high-end areas, general Lagos safety precautions apply. Always be aware of your surroundings, especially at bus stops or when waiting for transport. Avoid displaying valuables openly. 'One-chance' incidents are less common on this specific route but staying vigilant is always wise.
BRT / Rail / Water
No direct BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) or rail services are available for this specific short route within Ikoyi. Your best bet for public transport will be Keke Napep (tricycles) or shared minibuses (Danfo) from main roads.
Due to Ajah flyover layouts, returning U-turns are best performed at designated roundabouts rather than illegal bypasses to avoid traffic penalties.
