From a central point within Ikoyi, such as near the Bourdillon Road junction, locate a bus stop for buses heading towards Falomo or Awolowo Road terminus. Many buses ply this initial short leg.

Alight at Falomo Roundabout. Here, you'll need to locate the main bus park for vehicles going towards Victoria Island (VI), specifically routes that traverse Ozumba Mbadiwe Avenue to properly navigate the specified distance.

Board a bus heading into Victoria Island. Tell the conductor you're dropping around Eko Hotel Roundabout or Adetokunbo Ademola Street. This leg takes you through a major commercial district, adding to the journey length.

At the Eko Hotel vicinity, search for buses or 'keke Napep' (tricycles) that are specifically heading towards CMS (Central Mosque / Marina). These are readily available connections.

Drop off at the major CMS Bus Terminal. This is a central interchange island routes. From here, you'll find numerous buses going directly to Obalende.

Finally, board a bus clearly marked 'Obalende'. This will be a short, direct ride across the bridge to your final destination at the bustling Obalende terminus.
