Moonshot 2023: A Travel Guide To Lagos, Nigeria

Visas

With the exception of citizens/nationals of member states of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), delegates of other nationalities are required to possess a valid Nigerian visa in order to be admitted into Nigeria from any of its international ports.

Nigerian visas are issued through the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) desk at either the Nigerian Embassy or Consulate in your home country. The nation also has a Visa-on-Arrival scheme for interested travellers.

To ease the process of visa-on-arrival application and procurement, TechCabal has partnered with IATA Certified agency, Trip Holics Nigeria to make your travel preparations seamless! 

Please note that the NIS applies different charges to various nationalities for Visa-on-Arrival application.

TRAVEL WITHIN LAGOS

From the ubiquitous yellow commercial buses popularly called “Danfo”, to the commercial tricycles called “Keke”, and Lagos State Government-run “BRT” buses, there are a host of ways to get around in Lagos. However, we recommend the following easy ways to get around, some of which you may already be familiar with from your home country or other countries you have visited.

  • Uber: Probably the most popular ride hailing service in the world
  • Bolt: Formerly known as Taxify. This is another internationally popular ride hailing service
  • Rida: Ride hailing service in Nigeria with a slightly cheaper price point than the two above
  • LagRide: Ride sharing service run by the Lagos State Government
  • Luxury rides: AutoGirl NG offers various luxurious rentals with the following vehicles:
  • Cars: You get a variety of cars to pick from and a driver on standby 24/7
  • Boats: Ride boats for a fantastic view of Lagos’ coastal waters
  • Aircrafts: Make a quick dash to another city in Nigeria with any of AutoGirl NG’s aircraft rentals
