Early mornings (before 6:00 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) to avoid peak traffic. Evenings are best after 7:00 PM. Weekends generally have lighter traffic, but major bus stops remain busy.
Safety Rating
Medium. Lagos public transport can be safe, but 'one-chance' incidents are a risk, especially late at night or in less crowded areas. Pickpocketing is common in busy bus stops. Always be vigilant, avoid flashy displays, and use well-lit, busy routes.
