Lagos → Lagos Island: key facts

A private transfer from Lagos Airport (LOS) to Lagos Island costs €45 per car for 1–3 passengers and €65 per van for 4–8. It is a fixed price for the whole vehicle, the same amount you pay when you book. The road distance is 22 km via A5; the drive takes about 20 min with clear roads, so plan on 20–30 min at busy times.

Where the driver waits: The driver waits in the arrivals area of the terminal your flight lands at (the international terminal for international flights, MMA1 or MMA2 for domestic flights), after immigration, baggage reclaim and customs, holding a sign with your name. We track your flight and the first 60 minutes after landing are free; the driver helps with your luggage.

Murtala Muhammed International Airport is in Ikeja on the Lagos mainland, roughly 22 km by road from Lagos Island. From the airport the usual route follows Airport Road and Ikorodu Road towards Yaba and then crosses the lagoon on the Third Mainland Bridge, a long causeway bridge that lands on the northern side of Lagos Island near Adeniji Adele. An alternative runs through Oshodi and Apapa and over Eko Bridge. Traffic in Lagos is heavy on weekday mornings and evenings, so the same trip can take far longer than at night or on a Sunday morning.

Lagos Island is the old commercial heart of the city. The Marina runs along its southern waterfront with bank and office towers, while Broad Street, Balogun Market and Idumota form the busy trading district behind it. Tafawa Balewa Square, the Cathedral Church of Christ and Freedom Park are close together near Onikan, where the National Museum also stands. Obalende, on the eastern edge, leads to Ikoyi. Market streets are crowded in the daytime and cars often stop on the main roads nearby rather than inside the market lanes.

Public transport instead: LAMATA (Lagos Rail Mass Transit) train Red Line from Ikeja station (a short drive from the airport, no rail link to the terminals) to Oyingbo station — about 25–30 min, about 9 trains a day, Monday to Friday (06:00-20:40), 1 change. There is no rail or scheduled bus link from the airport terminals. The nearest public rail is the LAMATA Red Line at Ikeja or Oshodi stations, a short drive from the airport, with trains to Oyingbo on the mainland; the onward trip to Lagos Island is by road.
