Where to Visit in Nigeria

Hello, I will be visiting home (Nigeria) soon after my marriage.  I will want to take my wife to fun places in Nigeria, can you advise on the star attractions in Nigeria?  Can anyone one share his/her experiences??

Olumo Rock in Abeokuta is one of the places she might enjoy. I've been there.

I've also heard about the Yankari game reserve and Obudu hills (venue of Gulder Ultimate Search 2).

No other place like Yankari game reserve in Bauchi. That place is great! Swimming pool, animals, people from all over the world. Yeah ... Yankari is great!

Ikogosi warm spring
Osun River
Erin-Ijesha water falls
Idanre hills
MicCom golf course (that place is nice!!)
Obafemi Awolowo University
University of Ibadan (Zoo)
Aso Rock

As far as i'm concerned she will definitely enjoy Erin ijesha water falls cos is a very cool place,Jos is ok for her to visit,Zoological Garden [U I],finally take her to Sheraton hotel for ur honey moon periods in Nigeria.

Many thanks guys,, I never knew there are lots of places one can visit in Nigeria. It is a shame we don't get to know of these places easily on the internet or TV. Has anyone been to whispering palms? I hear it is a cool place too. Cheers!

Yeah whispering palms in badagry. Heard its a nice place too. Never been there sha.

hit ABJ(Abuja) man. for a fee i'll take you round. you and your wife will have the time of ur lives

My People...

I was just having a chat with Kenya on places in Nigeria  that would be interesting to visit..

I have been to a couple of cities, and would like to hear your comments or suggestions about places that would be worth while... Anything or place that comes to mind.. or that would be a memorable place to visit..

Some places I've been to are..

1. ViewPoint at Abraka, Delta state..

2. Nike Lake, Enugu...

3. Yankari Game Reserve.. and the Wiki Natural Springs.. Bauchi

4. Eleko Beach, Near Epe, Lagos..

5. Takwa Bay, also Lagos.

6. Calabar City...

7. Port Harcourt City.. [the best night life outside Lagos..  ]


Places I would like to get to...

1. Oguta Lake, in Imo state..

2. Obudu Ranch.. [I believe this is currently names the Protea Hotel Resort]


So... People.. please help me out..

Gembu..
sarduana local government taraba state. relatively unspoilt the weathers just as good as florida in the US. lush green vegetation, a variety of dams, interesting peoples and cultures and peaceful enviroment. its the coldest place in west africa(it lies on the mambilla plateau).home of the highland tea plantation
challenges
1.poor road network leading to the area
2. poor electricity(its overcome if you stay in good accomodation)

Gashaka national park..(gashaka taraba state)
one of the least popular parks nationwide but one of the most diverse,contains a large population of a variety of wildlife,relatively unspoilt, town itself is quite rustic and peacefull
challenges-same as gembu

hey take her to the north.
places especially kano state,u have places like:

Hills and Valley

Bagauda hills

Emir palace

Dubair

manguwa water restaurant

chimanu2000 I want to go to the mambilla. I never knew it was coldest place in west africa though. Thanks for the info. Maybe i'll buy some land out there and get a house. Do you know if it snows?

i have been to whispering palm in Badagry, the place is fun when they have some kind of events going on but other than that is just like the Tarzan Jetty in victoria island.

Obudu cattle ranch.
Akpokan falls.
Yankaree games reserve.
Ibeno beach.
etc.

Na wetin una dey yan, they didn't say they are going to naija for excursion, omo make una talk of nice joints wey go make am trip. Wetin dey for palmsprings, olumo rock aba una boring. I beg, you need to go abuja and find yourself some nice chillin spots and not to forget adeola alakija for Victoria Island, you will be spending money sha for headsup.

she meant binoculars! and u know dat!

whispering palms is nothing like tarzan jetty in victoria island. it is an establishment suitable for children and adults alike. it is ideal for family getaways, business conferences, honeymooners and day trippers. the staff are pleasant and helpful and the ambience is bliss. there is no place in the whole of nigeria like whispering palms. i visit the place every year and it is money well spent. the activities that they have include;
speed boat
pedal boats
mini zoo
bicycle track and bicycles
swimming pool
football field
tennis court
table tennis tables
volley ball nets
not to mention the amazing restaurant and accomodation. they also organise numerous excursions. i've been to see the first storey building, the tree where christianity was first preached and seme in benin republic courtesy of whispering palms.
the place is nice!

the palace

when was the last tiem anyone here visited yankari and how much did the whole thing cost you?
