Best Time to Travel
The best time to travel is mid-morning (10:00 AM - 2:00 PM) or late evening (after 8:00 PM) to avoid the worst of Lagos's notorious rush hour traffic. Traveling very early in the morning (before 6:00 AM) can also be quick.
Safety Rating
Medium. Lagos public transport is generally safe, but travelers should be aware of petty crime, pickpockets in crowded areas, and 'one-chance' vehicles (unmarked private cars posing as public transport). Avoid displaying valuables and be cautious when traveling late at night.
