Antes de ir

Desde el aeropuerto

From Murtala Muhammed International Airport (LOS), the most convenient option is a ride-hailing app (Bolt/Uber) to Victoria Island or Lekki, costing ₦6,000-₦10,000 ($7-$12). Official airport taxis are more expensive (₦10,000+). There is no direct, reliable train or public bus link.

Cómo moverse

The city is not pedestrian-friendly. Sidewalks are often non-existent, obstructed, or uneven. Walking is only practical within small, self-contained areas like parts of Victoria Island or inside a market. Crossing major roads is dangerous.

Consejos de la zona

  • Download and use ride-hailing apps like Bolt and Uber. They are safer, more reliable, and you avoid price haggling with regular taxis.
  • Carry small denominations of Naira (₦100, ₦200, ₦500 notes) for tips, market purchases, and Danfo buses. Getting change for large notes is often difficult.
  • Learn a few basic Yoruba or Pidgin phrases. A simple 'Ẹ káàbọ' (welcome) or 'How you dey?' goes a very long way in building rapport.
