Walk from your exact location on Osborne Foreshore to the nearest Danfo bus stop along Osborne Road. Look for buses heading towards Falomo or Obalende.
Board a Danfo bus heading towards Falomo. Alight at Falomo Roundabout.
From Falomo, you will need to take a Keke Napep into Parkview Estate. Look for Keke drivers at the roundabout or nearby streets. Clearly state 'Parkview Estate' as your destination. They will typically enter via Gerrard Road.
The Keke will take you through Gerrard Road and into Parkview Estate, following internal roads like Aso Street, Bode Olejumoke Crescent, Sir Tony Eromosele Street, Alade Odunewu Street, Jaiye Balogun Street, Prince Tayo Adesanya Street, and King Ologunkuture Street to your final destination within the estate.
Bargain with Keke drivers, especially if you're chartering (paying for the whole Keke).
Confirm the fare before boarding any public transport.
Have exact change ready to avoid issues with conductors.
During peak hours, consider walking short distances to bypass traffic bottlenecks.
Walking 12.9 km is a significant distance and not recommended for this route, especially under the Lagos sun or during evening hours. It's best to use public transport or a Keke.
Okadas are generally restricted on major roads in Ikoyi, including most of the route from Osborne Foreshore to Parkview Estate. While you might find them on inner estate roads for short distances, it's not a reliable primary mode of transport for the entire journey.
If a direct Keke charter is too expensive or unavailable, revert to the Danfo + Keke combination. Take a Danfo to Falomo, and from there, you'll easily find Kekes willing to go into Parkview Estate.
Parkview Estate generally doesn't have formal 'bus stops' like major roads. Keke Napeps and private cars navigate the internal roads. You'd typically alight at your specific street or a prominent landmark within the estate.
