Best Time to Travel
Early morning (before 6:30 AM) or late morning (10:00 AM - 1:00 PM) and mid-afternoon (2:00 PM - 4:00 PM) are generally best to avoid the worst of Lagos' peak hour traffic. Avoid 6:30 AM - 9:30 AM and 4:30 PM - 8:00 PM on weekdays.
Safety Rating
Medium. Lagos is generally safe during the day, but 'one-chance' (unscrupulous drivers/passengers robbing you) can occur, especially in unverified shared taxis or late at night. Stick to busy, well-lit routes and established public transport. Avoid isolated areas, especially after dark. Always be aware of your belongings.
BRT / Rail / Water
