4 Ways To Travel Smartly In Nigeria by Opinionated: 4:10pm On Jun 09, 2017
Travelling doesn’t have to be such an expensive and somewhat inconvenient endeavor. It doesn’t have to be an endeavor that’s hard on your finances and lifestyle. There are ways to make the most of your travelling experience and reduce its pressure on your finances and lifestyle. Jumia Travel, the leading online travel agency, shares 4 ways to travel smartly in Nigeria.

Choose Your Means of Transport Wisely

Constantly check for the fares of different legitimate airlines and transport companies; check for their specific discount periods and discount schemes that will be of benefit to you in budgeting and planning for your travel with your decided mode of transportation. This can help maximize your travel experience. Registering on travel and hotel booking portals like Jumia Travel can help with this. You can take advantage of special travel smart deals to save yourself some more money.

Organize Your Travel Documents Well

Ensure all your travel documents are in place and are easily accessible, so you don’t have to waste time trying to find them at crucial times. This sort of oversight can end up either delaying your journey or making it entirely impossible. Besides, you’ll save yourself the stress of having to deal with officials that might get hostile or even embarrassing when this happens.

Pack Lightly

This can help you avoid excess luggage charges and save you from spending extra money on your travel. Just pack necessary items that can make your travel more convenient and leave behind the rest. Packing with purpose can go a long way in helping you achieve this. Pack with your location in mind and avoid packing things that aren’t versatile.

Plan Your Trips

Regardless of it’s a business trip or vacation, you should always endeavor to plan for your travel. From budgeting your travel expenses before and during the trip to the exact kind of hotel or accommodation you intend to stay in, and the means of transport you intent to use at your travel destination. If it’s an Uber you intend to use, plan for it; if taking the bus will be cheaper, plan for it. Plan every little detail of your trip to the best of your ability. Yes things happen, and you might ultimately not be able to execute your entire plan but it will at least keep you relatively in control of your travel experience and help you reduce and very possibly avoid excess and unexpected costs.

Tell your driver to have enough change to settle the men at the checkpoints else they may delay your journey when he fails to comply

Let him have enough #20 and #50 notes... I am talking from experience

5. You Need To Do A Research

Have you seen a headless chicken before? Did you notice how it used to run around? That’s how some travellers run when they travel. When you are travelling to a new destination or a city that you are not familiar with, the best thing to do is to research. I do it and it is working for me. I like getting information about my destination before travelling. Research on lots of things like; where to stay, Where to eat, and what to do, you can also Google the crime rate of the destination.

6. Pack At The Right Time

Another thing is when to pack. You don’t need to wait till the day you will travel before you pack. Some people are fond of it. The implication is this when you rush to pack, you may forget something. Pack at least 3 days before your departure date. All you have to do a night before departure is to cross check your list to make sure everything is intact.

7. You Need Quality Sleep

Sleep is a nature call, it is indispensable. No matter where you are travelling to, you need to give yourself quality rest before you travel. It is embarrassing and dangerous to sleep in a bus. How would you feel if someone is sleeping over your shoulder in a bus? Quality sleep is very vital and it is a major key to stress-free travel.


8. Arrive Early

One of the 8 sure ways to enjoy smooth and stress-free travel in Nigeria is an early arrival. Arriving early has its own advantages. One of the things that can make a journey stressful is when you realize that you are almost or already late. Main causes of late arrival are inadequate preparation and not having enough resting time. Arriving early will help you settle fast. If you are going to Lagos where the traffic is terrible, you have to leave your home early.
