Head to Falomo Bus Stop in Ikoyi. This is a major hub where you'll find yellow buses (Danfo) heading towards Victoria Island.
Look for Danfo buses with 'VI' or 'Eko Hotel' written on them. Confirm with the conductor that they are going towards Adeola Odeku or a close drop-off point like Eko Hotel Roundabout.
The bus will cross Falomo Bridge, then proceed along Ozumba Mbadiwe Avenue. Ask the conductor to drop you at the closest point to Adeola Odeku, usually around Eko Hotel Roundabout or the start of Akin Adesola Street.
From the drop-off point, Adeola Odeku is a short walk away. If your specific destination is further down the street, you can take another short Danfo ride or a 'Keke' (tricycle) on inner roads.
Always confirm your destination with the conductor before boarding.
Have exact change ready to avoid arguments over 'no change'.
Try to travel outside of peak hours (7-9 AM and 4-7 PM) to beat traffic.
While major roads in Ikoyi and Victoria Island are generally well-lit and busy, it's advisable to avoid traveling alone late at night, especially after 9:00 PM, using public transport. If you must, stick to well-populated areas and main roads.
LASTMA (Lagos State Traffic Management Authority) and VIO (Vehicle Inspection Office) officials are often present at major intersections and bridges to manage traffic and check vehicle documents. Hotspots for this route include Falomo Bridge and major junctions along Ozumba Mbadiwe. They primarily deal with drivers, but their presence can sometimes cause minor delays.
While 'Keke' are common for short distances within Ikoyi or Victoria Island, they are generally not allowed on major expressways like Falomo Bridge or Ozumba Mbadiwe Avenue. They are best for connecting from your exact starting point to a bus stop, or for the 'last mile' once you are already in Victoria Island.

Medium. While this is a busy urban route, it's always wise to be aware of your surroundings. 'One-chance' incidents are less common on such short, busy routes but pickpocketing can occur. Avoid displaying valuables openly.
