Best Time to Travel
The best times to travel are early mornings (before 6:30 AM) or late mornings/early afternoons (10:00 AM - 2:00 PM) to avoid the notorious Lagos rush hour traffic. Weekends generally offer less traffic congestion.
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during the day, it's advisable to avoid late-night public transport. Be mindful of your belongings in crowded buses and terminals to prevent pickpocketing. Be aware of 'one-chance' incidents, especially with unverified shared taxis or 'Danfos' at night.
