Go to the Oworonshoki BRT Terminal or any designated BRT stop along the Oworonshoki axis.
Board a BRT bus heading towards Tafawa Balewa Square (TBS) or CMS. Inform the conductor or look for signs indicating the destination.
Alight at the Obalende BRT Terminal. This is a major junction where you can connect to Ikoyi.
From Obalende, look for yellow 'Danfo' buses or 'Keke Napep' (tricycles) heading into Ikoyi. Specify your exact destination in Ikoyi (e.g., 'Awolowo Road', 'Falomo', 'Onikoyi').

Best Time to Travel
To avoid heavy traffic, the best times are mid-morning (10:00 AM - 2:00 PM) or late evening (after 8:00 PM). The ferry option offers a consistent travel time during peak hours.
Safety Rating
Medium. While daylight travel is generally safe, be aware of petty theft in crowded bus stops. 'One-chance' vehicle incidents are rare on BRT and ferries but can occur with unmarked shared taxis, especially at night. Exercise caution when traveling late evenings.
BRT / Rail / Water
