Traveling from Parkview Estate to Banana Island is a short, intra-Ikoyi journey. Given the proximity, public transport options are mainly tricycles ('Keke') or a combination of walking and Keke. Direct Danfo routes are limited within these high-end residential areas for such short distances. Expect mild to heavy traffic depending on the time of day, especially around major junctions and the Falomo axis.

From your exact location within Parkview Estate, walk to the nearest Keke stand or a point where Keke tricycles are easily accessible (e.g., near the estate gate or main junctions on Gerrard Road).
Haggle and board a Keke. Clearly state your destination as 'Banana Island'. Confirm the price before you set off.
The Keke will take you directly into Banana Island, dropping you off at your specific address or a central point within the island.
Always confirm the fare with the Keke driver before starting the journey to avoid disputes.
If you are going to a specific address within Banana Island, ensure the driver knows it or can navigate there.
Keke drivers might be hesitant to go deep into the estates late at night, or may charge more.
No, direct Danfo routes for such short, internal trips within Ikoyi's high-end estates like Parkview and Banana Island are not common. You would primarily rely on Keke tricycles or private vehicles.
Walking during the day is generally safe, especially on the main roads. However, it's a significant walk (around 4-5 km). Exercise caution, be aware of traffic, and avoid walking alone at night.
You can usually find Keke tricycles near the estate gates, major junctions on Gerrard Road, or sometimes by hailing them on smaller internal roads. They are quite common within Ikoyi for short distances.
While LASTMA and VIO operate across Lagos, for short Keke trips within Ikoyi estates, direct encounters are less frequent. However, major roads like the Falomo Bridge approaches are known hotspots for general traffic enforcement, so drivers should always comply with rules.

Safety Rating
Medium. Ikoyi is generally a safe area, but standard Lagos travel precautions apply. 'One-chance' incidents are less common for such short, internal Ikoyi trips but always be aware of your surroundings, especially if traveling late at night or in isolated areas.
