GETTING AROUND

BY ROAD

If you go to Nigeria, and don't already have a way to get around locally, the next easiest way to get around would probably be to hire a taxi driver.

Another option is to get a driver once you get there, these are sometimes available at the hotels. Also, Nigerian Galleria has a section on car hire rates but at this time (7/31/98) they are only from the Lagos Airport. Other airports may or may not have similar services.

Also, sometimes you can get tours by roads that will allow you to see the country, and where the driver will explain some of the places he is driving through. These are available by luxury buses, mini-buses, touring saloon cars, and vary in price and quality.

If you plan on renting a car, I have not found many resources online. I did find a link at FinDat.com that may soon have some. Of course, once you are there, you can try the local travel agencies listed on this page, and they may or may not be able to help (let me know if you find out).

Also, you could try taking public transportation, but in most cities, that can be a real ordeal.
