"We wanted to let you know how much we loved the Nigeria book and how helpful and accurate we found it." --Fiona and Adrian Munn
I am to congratulate you for the important contribution the publication has made to the growing literature on Travel Guides, particularly about Nigeria. --Anthony Adeloye, Librarian for the High Commissioner of Nigeria
Despite negative images of Africa's most populous country, the traveler to Nigeria will meet nothing but kindness and hospitality. Who could fail to be intrigued by the mind-boggling chaos of Lagos, drawn by the traditional durbars, Benin bronzes and walled cities, and relieved by the absence of tourist-related hassle so prevalent elsewhere in Africa?
In Nigeria: The Bradt Travel Guide, Lizzie Williams puts the record straight. While pulling no punches about the country's extremes, she encourages the visitor to explore beyond the expat compound and enjoy its single greatest quality - the warm generosity of 140 million people.
Inside you will find:
*Detailed advice on health and safety
*Getting around - from okadas to chauffeur-driven cars
*People and culture in depth
*Lagos - the mainland and the islands
*National parks, wildlife and the environment
*Practical information for expats and NGOs
