Get around Lagos can be very tedious especially since there is usually heavy traffic on the roads which can last for hours. However, the introduction of Motobike, popularly known as "Okada" has tremendously helped passengers as they can always manouvre their way out of every tight corner. But one got to be very careful with these Okada people. They can be very reckless and surely people die daily as a result of recklessness. The sad aspect of it is that the Okada riders seldomly die in such accidents: it is usually the passengers that do get killed. So be careful if you must go by Okada.

Try caverton helicopters, they fly to the airport in 10mins rather than the drive of 2hrs!! Even Richard Branson uses it!!

Car is the only way through town but traffic is bad.
Aboat is useful if you can use one.
A Nigerian called Tarzan has a boat yard and rents boats out or will take you up river.
