          As you arrive at the waterfall, the beauty is so captivating as you begin to hear the sound of the water cascade, a few meters away from the parking lot. Enjoy the natural view of the fall, capture those imaginations as they come to you upon seeing the fall. Take a descent to the base of the waterfall and enjoy bird watching activities as well as a hike to the fall (depending on the volume of water). You definitely want to sit out and commune with nature in a quiet scenery while you watch the water bash the rocks. Get on a boat and explore further the beauty and magnificence of Gurara waterfall.

          Do not waste your money
          This tour is actually free. I didn’t get anything for the $100 that I paid because I was close by and didn’t take the car service. I was not told this when I said I didn’t need the ride. He was also super rude when I called to ask about the items included with the $100. The Gallery was nice and the art is great. The people inside the gallery were great so, take the tour just don’t book through trip advisor or any other third party apps. Remember the tour is free so don’t waste your money. I also read something about creating my own art when I booked and that was not provided either. Refund my money.

          Terrible experience
          The staff at the resort are rude as hell. despite staying as a guest, they try to extort you at every opportunity. We know it’s an African themed accommodation, but it could be a whole lot sanitary and packaged. Some of the doors don’t close fully and the curtains don’t cover the windows properly! There are rats in the room and most of their AC are not working, the Fans are filthy dusty and the thatched ceiling drops off particles on you if you put on the fan. The only thing good about here is the pool. They obviously don’t care about the customers, they only care about how much they get. Then the flies……no comment!

          Good tour, expensive one
          Henry was my guide. He was nice and friendly. The tour allows you to visit a few places inside and outside of Abuja, so you get to see a fair amount of the city life. I found the tour to be quite expensive, especially for a solo traveler, however I noticed this seems to be the trend in Nigeria. Thanks Henry.

          Our tour guide Bright was amazing and went above and beyond to ensure we had a fun, safe, and informative experience. Professional, knowledgeable, and so accommodating. Pick up was on time and as planned. Excellent driver! Comfortable vehicle. Highly recommend! Thanks for a great day!

          Great Experience
          Almat Farm in Abuja, Nigeria, is an idyllic countryside retreat that exceeded all my expectations. The lush greenery and serene atmosphere provided a perfect escape from bustling city life. The farm's well-maintained facilities, friendly staff, and diverse range of activities like horse riding and fruit picking made the visit truly enjoyable. The farm-to-table dining experience was a highlight, with fresh and organic produce served in delightful dishes. I highly recommend Almat Farm to anyone seeking a peaceful and rejuvenating getaway in Nigeria.

          Quick & Easy Lagos Tour
          This tour was a perfect way to see all the major attractions on Lagos island in one day. Our tour guides were extremely responsive before, during and after our trip. Having a driver and not having to worry about transportation for the day was a major selling point. Water and snacks were provided in the morning. My only complaint is that for the price a full lunch could of been included.

          Very bad experience
          Worst experience of my life. My family and I paid for a room (studio 88k per night for 2 nights) the room was nothing to write home about the toilet was bad, AC has a mind of its own and the microwave takes about 30 minutes to warm food when it decides to do so. To make the situation worse, our kids were asleep and my wife and I were just chatting and we had rat visit the hut that we paid #88k for. We alerted them and they moved us to another room at about 10:30pm when we had to move 2 sleeping kids at that time. Fast forward 3 hours later in the new room we were all awoken by water dropping on us on the beds. At 2am we had to start running around. Don’t even get me started about the experience with food and the staff at the restaurant. It’s totally a waste of time and money

          Highly educational - recommended!
          Highly recommended. Bright who was my driver and guide together with two local guides did a great job of introducing the history of Badagry. I learnt a lot. The slave trade ended in the 1880s and after visiting its clear how recent this is. The descendants of Seriki Williams Abass who built and managed the slave trade facilities at Badagry are still living right there. More people should visit Nigeria and more people should visit Badagry. From Victoria Island, the drive there takes around three hours, depending on traffic. The road varies wildly from modern highway to patches of just sand. Badagry is close to the border with Benin and we were stopped by immigration police. Bright had told me to bring a copy of my passport and visa which turned out to be vital. I witnessed a group of smugglers being slapped around by the police. Bright handled the situation expertly and we were able to travel onwards after only a brief stop. We added in a stop to have jollof rice on the way back. Highly recommended! If you’re into coffee you better bring your own. Water and snacks can be bought at the museum.

          Motley travels was the best from the very beginning. They were responsive at all times of the night when I finally had a chance to check my emails. They found away to assist me with someone elses app. We learned sooo much. Our guide, Bright, was awesome. He was sooo patient, pleasant and accommodating. He was sooo cool, we requested him again for our tour on Sunday. If you come here and want to see a little bit of everything, check out Motley Travels.

          Historical Badagry
          What an incredible solo trip this was! My driver Bright was extremely well informed about Nigeria and he gave me all the tips and historical context about the country on our way to Badagry. When we got there, I got to see the heritage museum, the baracoon and then the point of no return. I mean, there was so much history the entire day. I booked this trip last minute and I’m so glad I did it. It was one of the most impactful moments of my entire Nigeria trip. If you have the time and interest, it’s definitely worth it. Bright picked me up at 8:30am in an air conditioned car, with snacks and we were able to hit just a little bit of traffic on the way back, but I was back home before 4pm. Make sure you have a copy of your passport and visa and walk allll the way to the point of no return, it’s a long humid walk but it’s worth it :). Such a wonderful experience!

        Aside from being overpriced (an activity you can hire a car from hotel & do on your own). Assigned driver was good. Went out of his way to please. Intern guide was caring but too shy to be effective. Had to pay extra money to climb down to the falls. Climbing back up is not for the faint hearted. Overall a memorable experience.

        It is a great place to hang out for a picnic or just to enjoy nature. Motley Travels made my trip remarkable though I went with a group of complete strangers. They had fun & engaging activities.
