Plan your stay

Getting there and around

Ado-Ekiti is reached by road from major Nigerian cities. From Lagos the journey runs via the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway and the Ibadan-Ife-Akure road and takes several hours; from Abuja it is a long drive southwards. Akure Airport is the nearest airport but has limited flights, so many visitors fly into Lagos and continue by road. Inside the city, taxis and motorcycle taxis (okadas) are common, buses and minibuses run fixed routes, and renting a car with a driver gives more flexibility.

When to go

The dry season, from November to March, is generally the best time to visit Ado-Ekiti, when the weather is cooler and less humid. The rainy season runs from April to October, with peak rainfall in June and September. The Udiroko festival in August is a major cultural event that draws visitors. To avoid heavy rains, plan your trip between November and February.
