Lagos, Nigeria

Visitors to Nigeria often end up exasperated by a culture of bribery, extortion and petty theft that can make even the simplest itinerary a challenge. Ominous-looking roadblocks can pop up anywhere and anytime in this kleptocratic environment, and it may take a small bundle of cash to get through. Yellow Lagos taxis are cheap and plentiful, but proceed at your own risk.

Tip: Work with your hotel concierge to find private transportation and stress-free routes.
