Showing the primary/fastest route plan
Depart from Nnamdi Azikiwe Street. Walk to a major Danfo bus stop nearby (e.g., Balogun Market, Idumota). Look for buses heading towards 'CMS' or directly 'Victoria Island'.
Board a Danfo heading towards CMS/Marina. Ask the conductor if they go to 'Victoria Island'. If not, you'll transfer at CMS.
If your first bus doesn't go all the way, alight at CMS Bus Stop (Marina). From CMS, cross to the other side (towards Bonny Camp/Victoria Island direction) and look for another Danfo or shared taxi going into Victoria Island.
The bus will typically follow the route along New Marina Road, then merge onto Ahmadu Bello Way. It will then turn left onto Akin Adesola Street. You might need to alight near the start of Akin Adesola Street and walk or take a short 'okada' (motorcycle taxi) or 'keke' (tricycle) ride.
Turn right onto Karimu Kotun Street from Akin Adesola Street. Your destination will be on Karimu Kotun Street.

Best Time to Travel
Mid-morning (10:00 AM - 12:00 PM) or early afternoon (2:00 PM - 4:00 PM) to avoid the worst of Lagos's notorious peak hour traffic. Avoid 6:00 AM - 9:00 AM and 4:30 PM - 7:30 PM.
Safety Rating
Medium. During the day, the route is generally safe but be aware of pickpockets in crowded areas like markets and bus stops. At night, 'one-chance' operations (unmarked public transport used by criminals) are a risk. Always use well-lit, busy public transport from designated parks or trusted services.
