I think you need to make some enquiry from the place you get to learn the trade on accommodation and cost of living there and then get to Lagos to find out how you will get there. In fact the easiest way out is car bonnet sha! Abeg whenever you land there try to explore grounds, my phone and my fingers want put me for trouble, they are always "insulting" Buhari and I no want go jail. 1 Like |

I doubt you can get a direct bus from Lagos. You need to get to either Ghana or Benin republic then connect other countries like cote'dvoire from there senegal. Just my thinking 3 Likes 1 Share |

Acme45: I once went to Togo by road and one of the passengers was actually heading for cote da'voire. We boarded from mile2, Lagos. So maybe you might have to find your way to either Ghana or ivory coast and from there get a ride to Senegal. But though I doubt it,but try Togo. Make enquiries 1st @ mile int'l park if you are in Lagos,bon voyage |

The best days are on Wednesday go to new life hotel at Ikpuocha road, you will see white house hotel, just with 2k equivalent in Naija currency you can bleep oyibo Olosho. My brother life is very cheap. Have been in Senegal for 15 years and am not planing of coming back. Since I discovered that hotel, I have been a happier dude. 10 Likes 1 Share |

Acme45:I was in Dakar in April, and I'll tell you the cost of living there is very high. From taxi fares to food etc. Their immigration officers at the airport are very corrupt too. Just go with as much money as you can for the two weeks. 1 Like |

Acme45:I don't know about embroidery, I only went there for a conference and I spent just 2 days. If you can find out any other city apart from Dakar that you can learn it, it'll be cool. Do you speak French? Prepare to eat a lot of bread too, as all they have around there are boulangeries. 2 Likes |

Acme45: My brother, I have stayed in Almadies for a few weeks so I can tell you plainly: cost of living in Senegal is much higher than in Nigeria. Everything is denominated in Euros and charged in CFA accordingly. The first shocker was being asked to pay $10 by an immigration officer whom I engaged with to tell me where to wait as we got in there by 2.30am. Second shocker was when I paid 25,000 CFA to go from the Blaise Diagne airport into town (N17,250) at the time. N17,000 for airport taxi? Hmm. To stay in hotel, you pay a tourist's tax of 1,000 CFA per day. Everything is just on the upside: food, drinks, transport, etc. Plenty of Europeans in the country and that is what is driving up costs. Moreover, if you do not speak French or Wolof, sorry for you. On the flip side, the people are nice. The place is safe: you hardly see AK-47 totting police on the road. Plenty of tourist spots. Plenty of Igbo guys too: very noisy and loud in their ways. There is Ecobank there. My Payoneer MasterCard worked very well. You can pull out equivalent of 100,000CFA at once so it saves you on fees. But if you do not have money or you are not going there for business, forget that place. 7 Likes |

Re: Can I Get Direct Bus To Senegal From Lagos? by Google63(m): 6:31pm On Sep 22, 2019 |
stagger: OP he has explained everything. I passed through a similar experience too. I begged the Immigration thiefs at their airport to collect 7k cfa when they insisted on 10k. Cab from the airport to the hotel I lodged was 25k cfa. I spent about 70k naira in 2 days on just transport, hotel and bread. The place is safe, I got to my hotel around 3:30am with peace of mind and no harrassment. I'll advise you go with about 300k excluding your training fee if you don't want to be stranded there. Just load the money in an Ecobank account, you'll be fine. 1 Like |
