Best Time to Travel
The best time to travel is between 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM, or after 8:00 PM to avoid the worst of Lagos's traffic. Morning peak hours (6:00 AM - 9:00 AM) and evening peak hours (4:00 PM - 7:00 PM) will significantly extend your travel time.

Medium. While public transport is generally safe, 'one-chance' syndicates operate on some routes, especially at night. Always be alert, avoid late-night travel, and keep your belongings secure. Choose buses at designated bus stops and avoid isolated pick-up points.
