What Makes Naija Food Tour Unique?
A Cultural Celebration From the Moment You Arrive
From the very beginning, guests of the Naija Food Tour are welcomed into an atmosphere of music, warmth, and culture. Our first stop opened with a live band performance, giving everyone the perfect Lagos welcome and setting the tone for the day.
A Fun, Interactive Way to Explore Nigerian Food
To make the journey even more engaging, we created a custom food report card so guests could rate every single meal they tried throughout the Naija Food Tour. This added a playful twist — by the end of the day, everyone had turned into a food critic.
Comfortable Transportation & Non-Stop Vibes
Between each stop, guests entered our air-conditioned, comfortable Naija Food Tour bus where the experience continued. With music, a lively tour guide, and light snacks on board, the excitement never stopped. Many of our guests — including tourists visiting Lagos — mentioned how much they enjoyed the energy and the treat-filled tote bag waiting on their seat, packed with classic Nigerian snacks and the best small chops they had ever tasted.
This is not just a food tour. It’s the full Naija Food Tour experience.
