From the main gate of Parkview Estate, take a Keke Napep or a shared Danfo bus heading towards Falomo or Obalende.
Alight at Falomo Under Bridge bus stop. Look for minibuses or Danfo buses going to Lekki Phase 1, Admiralty Way, or Lekki First Gate.
Tell the driver or conductor your specific bus stop within Lekki Phase 1 (e.g., 'Admiralty Way', 'Tantalizers', 'Lekki First Gate').
Try to board buses that are already moving or have a few passengers to avoid long waiting times.
On Falomo Bridge, watch out for LASTMA officials; drivers may quickly drop passengers before the official stops to avoid fines.
If you're going deeper into Lekki Phase 1, you might need to take another Keke Napep from Admiralty Way, which will cost extra (₦100 - ₦300).
No, there are no direct buses. You will need to take at least two public transport vehicles (e.g., Keke/Danfo to Falomo/Ikoyi Link Bridge, then another Danfo/minibus to Lekki Phase 1).
To avoid the worst of Lagos traffic, travel between 10:00 AM and 1:00 PM, or 2:00 PM and 4:00 PM on weekdays. Weekends generally have lighter traffic.
Traveling at night, especially alone, carries a higher risk. If you must travel late, stick to well-populated bus stops and try to use public transport that has other passengers. Be aware of your surroundings.
If you struggle to find a direct bus, you can take any bus going along Ozumba Mbadiwe Avenue (e.g., towards VI or CMS) and alight at the first Lekki Phase 1 bus stop, then take a Keke Napep or walk into Lekki Phase 1.
Yes, fares are highly dynamic in Lagos. During fuel scarcity, major holidays, or periods of high demand, transport fares can increase significantly, sometimes by 50% or more. Always have extra cash ready.
