Safety Rating
Medium - High. Ikoyi and Victoria Island are generally safe areas during the day. However, like any metropolitan area, exercise caution, especially when traveling late at night. 'One-chance' incidents are rare on this specific route but always a general concern in Lagos public transport; avoid empty or suspicious vehicles.

Walk from your location in Parkview Estate to the main estate gate or a nearby bus stop on Awolowo Road. Board a 'Danfo' (yellow commercial bus) heading towards Falomo.
At Falomo Under Bridge, alight and cross to the side heading towards Victoria Island. Look for another Danfo going to 'Eko Hotel Roundabout' or 'Ozumba Mbadiwe'.
From Eko Hotel Roundabout, Sanusi Fafunwa Street is a short walk. Alternatively, you can take a 'Keke Napep' (tricycle) for the final stretch.
Always confirm the destination with the bus conductor before boarding.
Have small denominations of cash ready for bus fares.
If taking a Keke for the last leg, negotiate the fare before you start the journey.
The total cost usually ranges from ₦500 to ₦1000, depending on the route taken and current transport fares due to fuel prices.
Under normal traffic conditions, the journey can take between 30 to 60 minutes. During peak hours or heavy rain, it can extend to over 90 minutes.
It is generally advisable to complete your journey before 8:00 PM. While Ikoyi and Victoria Island are relatively safe, public transport options become scarcer and potentially less secure late at night. Exercise extra caution if traveling after dark.
Key bus stops include Parkview Estate Gate, Falomo Under Bridge, and Eko Hotel Roundabout. For BRT, Falomo BRT Terminal and Law School BRT Stop are important.
Yes, LASTMA (Lagos State Traffic Management Authority) and VIO (Vehicle Inspection Officers) are often present around Falomo Bridge and along Ozumba Mbadiwe Avenue, especially during peak hours. They monitor for traffic violations.
