From your location in Ikorodu, take a 'Danfo' (yellow commercial bus) or 'Keke Napep' (tricycle) to a major bus stop like Ikorodu Garage or Mile 12. From there, board a 'BRT' or 'Danfo' heading to a reputable interstate park in Lagos, such as Ojota or Jibowu. Ojota is often more accessible from Ikorodu.
At the Ojota or Jibowu terminal, locate the booking office of your preferred transport company (GIGM, ABC Transport, GUO Transport). Purchase your ticket to Maza Maza. It's advisable to book in advance, especially during festive periods. Confirm your departure time and vehicle type (usually a large, air-conditioned luxury bus).
Board your luxury bus. The journey will start by navigating through the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, passing through Ogun State. Expect police and military checkpoints along the way. The bus will typically make one or two scheduled rest stops in major towns like Ilorin or Ogbomoso for passengers to eat and use restrooms.
The route continues via Ibadan-Ilorin Expressway, then through Ogbomoso Ilorin Road and Jebba Road, eventually connecting to A1, A125, F214, and F128, leading to Maza Maza. The journey is long, so ensure you have snacks and drinks.
Upon arrival at the transport company's terminal in Maza Maza, disembark. You can then use local transportation like 'Keke Napep' or local taxis to reach your final destination within Maza Maza.

Hotspots
Best Time to Travel
Early morning (between 5:00 AM - 7:00 AM) is ideal to avoid Lagos traffic congestion and arrive at your destination before nightfall. Weekday travel is generally less congested than weekends or public holidays.
Safety Rating
Medium. While major expressways are generally safer, long interstate journeys in Nigeria require vigilance. Daytime travel is highly recommended to mitigate risks associated with night travel, including poor visibility and isolated road sections.
BRT / Rail / Water
Partial. Within Lagos, you can use BRT to connect from Ikorodu to major interstate terminals like Ojota. The Lagos-Ibadan standard gauge railway is available for the Lagos to Ibadan segment, but it does not cover the full route to Maza Maza, making road transport essential for the majority of the journey.
Most major parks at Jibowu and Utako now accept bank transfers, but network delays are common. Keep a buffer of N2,000 cash for loading fees and terminal taxes.
