Top 5 Travel Blogs In Nigeria by EnrouteNG: 2:39pm On Apr 20, 2016
Local travel and tourism is growing quite well in Nigeria, and this could be due to the current economic challenges the country is facing. Airline agencies are not banking enough foreign travel ticket revenue as they did some many months back because there's rice at home people cannot afford to spend anyhow at this time. Therefore, local tourism takes the spike!

To this effect, travel media has began to grow too. People are getting jobs as travel guides more and more and some people have started businesses that organise local tours. Below are the top 5 travel blogs in Nigeria (in no particular order) that serves varying travel interests.

ENROUTE NIGERIA (www.enroute.ng)

EnRoute Nigeria simply exhibits Nigeria to the world. The blog does more than showcase specific destinations but generally tells you a lot about what to expect in those destinations; the residents there, and their cultures (food, music, dance, royalty, etc). In short, the blog is likely going to become the most comprehensive travel guide in Nigeria soon with its current trajectory. You can send them email to [email]hello@enroute.ng[/email] or follow them on twitter (@enroutenigeria) or facebook (/enrouteng) if your need any form of guidance or advise on various destinations in Nigeria, or if you are interested in contributing to their blog.

SOCIAL PREFECT ([url]socialprefect.net[/url])

Chiamaka Obuekwe is a tour guide who blogs about local hotspots via socialprefect.net. She arranges tours for corporate workers, friends and families who are interested in short vacations in select spots in Nigeria (sometimes, beyond). She has even featured on enroute.ng's Memoirs of a South-West Tour: http://enroute.ng/word-with-a-traveller/memoir-south-west-tour/. If you desire a space from the hustle and bustle around you, Social Prefect should be on your speed dial.

UNRAVELLING NIGERIA ([url]unravellingnigeria.com[/url])

Unravelling Nigeria is basically like Social Prefect as par tour planning, but the blog contains more diverse content. So most of the aforementioned applies with this blog too. By the way, if you desire to visit the Idanre Hills, unravelling Nigeria is about going on a tour with few people from the 23rd April - 24th April, 2016. You can email [email]unravellingnigeria@gmail.com[/email] for enquiries.

NAIJA NOMADS ([url]naijanomads.com[/url])

Naija Nomads is the go-to spot for adventure seeking Nigerians. The blog basically curates the experiences of Nigerians who have travelled around the world. You can send an email to [email]travel@naijanomads.com[/email] to share your experience outside of Nigeria.

NAIJA TREKS ([url]naijatreks.com[/url])

Just like Social prefect and unravelling Nigeria, Naija treks also takes a number of people on tours around Nigeria in various seasons of the year. you can follow up on them on their website. If you want to go with them on any tour, you can simply visit [url]naijatreks.com/naijatreks-tour[/url].

Many thanks for this post. I did not know about most of the bloggers on your list before seeing your post. I also run a few months old travel blog [url]ZeeGoes.com[/url] and seeing more of Africa, most especially Nigeria is big on my to do list.

Your blog looks pretty good by the way. Kudos!
