Best Time to Travel
The best times to travel are generally mid-morning (10:00 AM - 2:00 PM) or late evening (after 8:00 PM) to avoid the worst of Lagos's peak hour traffic. Peak hours are typically 6:00 AM - 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM - 7:00 PM.
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during the day, 'one-chance' incidents can occur, especially in less crowded buses or at night. Pickpocketing is also a concern in busy areas. Always be aware of your surroundings, keep valuables secure, and avoid late-night travel if possible.
