Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6:30 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) are generally best to avoid the worst traffic. Similarly, early afternoon (before 3:00 PM) is better than the evening rush hour (4:00 PM - 8:00 PM). Weekends typically have lighter traffic.
Safety Rating
Medium. Lagos public transport is generally safe during the day, but always exercise caution. Pickpocketing can occur in crowded buses. 'One-chance' syndicates are a risk, especially late at night or on less-traveled routes. Avoid using your phone openly in traffic jams or at bus stops.
