It Amazes me...

They give their documents to the agents..

The Agents submits on their behalf and so on..
Will the argent also stand in for them during the interview? Or do embassies grant a kind of waivers for agents so they won't do interview?

Travel agencies in Nigeria can be economical with the truth sometimes. Apparently, brutal truths can hurt business prospects. But it isn’t only in Nigeria that agents embellish sour realities with salt. It’s a global trend.

A family holiday survey conducted on family vacations in the US is revealing. 10% of the respondents said they were not happy with their last holiday. And about 30% blamed their bad holiday experience on misleading vacation brochures they read. Poor victims – if only they knew some travel brochures only preach to win converts!

Granted, fake travel agents in Nigeria are real and in their numbers. But don’t take it way too wrong. Real travel agencies in Nigeria equally exist, though few in number. Regardless of the tag, many of them can hardly let out a few secrets Nigerian travelers may be itching to get. Guess you don’t need to be told the reason – every business wants to make money.

There’re truths you should know as a traveler. At least, the ones that won’t empty some pockets and bleed some souls. Let’s get right into it – truths most travel agents in Nigeria will be reluctant to tell you.

You Can Apply and Get Any Visa Yourself
This fact isn’t entirely hidden actually. Nearly half of Nigerian visa applicants know it.
But it appears many are gripped by fear – the fear of visa denial. If only they knew their fears were just baseless – the fear of the unknown.

There are busy Nigerians who can’t make out time going through the hurdles of visa application. Some others are constrained by emergencies that they will need help in obtaining a visa.

That said, it’s sheer ignorance and fear that scare most Nigerians away from applying for visas by themselves. What if all they need is to be told that they can successfully apply for visas in Nigeria by themselves? What if those who had fallen victims knew that they could have avoided being preys in the hands of the predators-turned-visa agents? What if you knew that simple online research would help you secure a visa?

What if…

Well, applying for a tourist visa in Nigerian, for instance, may take some rough turns, especially meeting the requirements. They could prove exhausting sometimes. The best visa agencies in Nigeria know a thing or two of what to do in this circumstance. So, it may just be that every travel-hopeful needs the services of “genuine” visa agents.

Visa Application Success isn’t Entirely Guaranteed
It’s laughable seeing gazettes with prints like “Visa success 100% guaranteed.” One wonders if the embassy of whatever country they offer visa services are on promo.

Travel agencies or visa agents in Nigeria can only try. But they aren’t the alpha and omega of your visa application. However, their try most times is good enough to help you secure the visa. Most know the twist and turns in a visa application.

Granting a visa is the sole prerogative of visa officials. Regardless of how complete your documents are, how much you meet the requirements and how thrilling your interview goes. It may just never work out – sorry, but the truth can be brutal sometimes.

Fair enough finding a good visa agent in Nigeria may just be all you need to scale through the hurdles easily. Visa application in Nigeria can be draining, especially with developed countries like the US, Canada, Australia, Germany, etc.

Know Your Destination
You may have come across those article headlines that read “why you should take your vacation to…” or “Best vacation spots to visit in…” They are often decorated with eye-catching pictures that will blow your mind at first sight.

Some further research will save you from “if only I knew…” during your vacation trip. Not too many travel agencies in Nigeria have the courage to tell you that.

Travel brochures can code-talk. You can see words like “busy” and “lively” resort. Those words are enchanting. Wait until you visit the location. It may be some razz area that can make your stay hellish.

How about “quiet” or “away from the buzzing town”? You’ve heard of those, too? The location could be about 7 miles away from the nearest bus stop.

What this misleading information does is that it makes you plan on the wrong destination, book the wrong accommodation, and lead you into a horrible vacation. It happens.

We’ve created an article specifically to guide you in planning your travel, especially choosing your travel destination. You should check it out here.

Nevertheless, good travel agencies can help you in choosing the right destination you need for your trip.

Travel Itinerary Is As Important As Your Visa
All you want is to get the visa. But after the visa bottleneck is severed, what’s next?
Funny, the checklist of most Nigerian travelers doesn’t follow in order – and to think just a few of them plan an itinerary for vacation gives worry.

You need to plan a travel itinerary even before visa for obvious reasons. Travel itinerary helps you to manage funds. You plan how much to spend and what to spend on – no frivolities unless you have a plan for extras. It also helps your time management efforts during travel. You know the best season of the year and the right destination that will give you the best travel experience. You equally know where and when to be at every moment during your trip.

Some so-called visa agents in Nigeria will want to lure you into a visa application for vacation when you haven’t even thought of a travel plan. During the visa application, you hurriedly lump together some unrealistic items on your list. That shouldn’t be the case when you intend to go on vacation or holiday.

Moreover, a travel itinerary can help you to save cost. Knowing the best travel moments or off-seasons can save you quite a lot. You know the destinations that sell early tickets, book early flights, etc. This saves you a heck of troubles travelers experience during rush hours – it equally saves you money.

Only trusted travel agencies in Nigeria will tell you how to plan your travel itinerary to benefit your travel. At least, Travelwahala helps visa applicants in building a visa checklist aside offering other travel solutions.

You should always plan a shorter travel itinerary. 15 days or less is best. This is even necessary for your visa application. The shorter your itinerary, the more genuine and realistic your application proves.

Bonus
Apparently, the attitude of Nigerian travelers sometimes pushes travel visa agents in Nigeria to pocket some truths. While you hit google to search for the list of fake travel agent names in Nigeria, know that you aren’t an exception. If you fail to know a few simple truths, you make yourself vulnerable.

Best travel agencies in Nigeria exist and are working well. Do your search. Travelwahala, for instance, has offered visa, hotel, flight booking and other travel solutions to Nigerians in the past 8+ years. You have the best travel agency in Abuja you can trust for assistance in every step of your journey.

Awesome Write up.

Number one fact Reminded of what I noticed at the Embassy before I travelled out.

95% of the guys I encountered at the embassy were agents.. I wondered why Nigerians couldn't take simple stuffs by themselves..

Anyway, all Aboki with his kettle!!
/.
The travel agents know the requirements and how to beat the system eg. Getting fake documents that look like originals, playing bank account games, etc.

Post graduate

Sorry,the first post was a mistake and for BSc, go online and check for the requirement and make sure you fill your account with 5m plus and you are good to go but u can still use sponsure but the amount of 5m or more must be in your own account. The way I did the last two for 2 of my friends 4yrs ago but I know u must have that sum of money in your own account

Good post... To further add to that
Please note the following things too
1. Don't be fooled when travel agents show very cheap fares, always ask for the ticket conditions
2. Also on cheap tickets, always ask for the layover or waiting time, cos the cheaper the fare, the longer layover
3. Always ask your agents to choose seats for you and also check you in to avoid loosing seats
