Hi Everyone

Has anyone travelled to Nigeria?

Do you think it would be safe to travel there alone?

Thanks for your suggestions!

Doesn't sound like the greatest idea.

Why would you be going alone?

Susan, I'm with Davii and Spinkie.....alone in a country like Nigeria isn't such a grand idea. I have a friend whose 23 y.o. daughter went missing 2 years ago in Nepal on a hiking trail, ALONE! Nothing was ever found of her......

In this day of human trafficking, people (especially women traveling alone) can't be too careful! Stay safe, my friend, travel in a group if you can!

Susan I have been a couple of times with work and I would suggest it is a bad idea for not only a female alone but even in small numbers. We have had instances of groups of four and five blokes being mugged and attacked. Therefore I would strongly advise against it. No offence meant to anyone who differs in opinion.....It is just my experience of it

Thanks everyone.

I had almost completed plans for travelling with 3 others.
But due to sudden change in work schedule they had to cancel.
Your advice and info has been very helpful in coming to a decision.
Trip cancelled for me too!
Anyway there are plenty of other places

Indeed, safe places where women CAN and DO travel alone. Even right here in the USA!!!
