Has anyone been to Nigeria recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- New venues worth checking out
I was there a while back and had a decent time. Wondering if things have changed.
Trying to decide between this and Thailand.
Cheers

Been there 8 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The quality is what keeps me coming back.

Adding my experience: scene has improved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: prices up 15-20%.
