    Entertaining and fun.

    Rene_G, Mar 2026
    Bare bones, reflects the price point. However great value and Broady is a great entertainer and full of fun facts. Bring your own snacks and water. More history than actual customs of how to navigate Lagos. Well worth it.

    A pleasant walk through old town, Lagos. The meeting spot was easy to find, Brodie is super friendly and chatty, sharing bits of knowledge and laughs along the way. Due to time of year, some places are closed but told about the markets and given great recommendations for a delicious lunch spot and beautiful beach walks.

    A fun, casual stroll to get the highlights of Lagos

    Diane_R, May 2025
    This IS a fun, casual stroll through the small town of Lagos that definitely covered the highlights and gave us a feel for the town and a bit of its history. Brodie is a VERY chill resident of Lagos who was funny, personable, and did a nice job. From the description and even from Brodie himself the tour was supposed to end with a dessert tasting, but it abruptly ended at the pier area instead without the dessert. Not quite sure what happened there but it wasn't a really big deal for us. Good tour to get the highlights if you are short on time in the area or so you can make plans to go back and see the things you want to revisit. We went back to the markets, but sadly the museums were closed on Mondays so we had to forego. Would definitely recommend this guide and tour.

    Very enjoyable.

    Jan_C, May 2025
    We had a great tour with Brodie and discovered parts of the sensational Lagos we would have missed, but for his knowledge. Very enjoyable. Steve and Jan.

    Lagos and Portugal appreciated even more!

    Paula_M, May 2025
    Thanks for today’s walking tour Brodie. We really appreciate Lagos and Portugal even more now and understand why you have moved here! Good luck with Paisley, Jessica, citizenship and any future endeavours. Paula & Dan from Canada 🇨🇦

    Brodie's tour was a lot of fun - we had a good time, learned a bit about Lagos and Portugal, and saw places we might have missed on our own. We enjoyed the market and tasting some liquour (we went back and bought some). I recommend this tour - it's definitely worth the money.

    Laid-back Introduction to Lagos

    Tim_P, Nov 2024
    Brodie’s laid back walking tour gave us a wonderful introduction to the Old Town in Lagos with a rudimentary course in Portuguese language, history and customs. All in two hours! Well worth the cost of admission. I’d recommend it wholeheartedly.

    Nice tour of Lagos

    Jeffrey_V, Nov 2024
    Nice walking tour with lots of interesting information. Brodie had lots of good information and tips as well. We did go on a holiday so not everything was open but if you plan in advance (we did it last minute) you shouldn’t have any issues. Thanks for fitting us in Brodie!

    A must do!

    Kristin_F, Nov 2024
    Brodie was amazing. His knowledge and love of Lagos is very evident! We loved that he provided tips and recommendations not only during the walking tour but before the tour via What’s App! We were able to check things off the list right upon arrival! This is a must do on Day 1 of your trip to Lagos!

    Great tour

    Maria_A, Oct 2024
    Very knowledgeable and fun experience. Learned a lot about Lagos history and enjoyed some delicious sangria afterward

    Great introduction to Lagos

    Kayla_L, Oct 2024
    Great tour to take during our first visit to Lagos! Brodie has a lot of knowledge and showed us places I would have otherwise missed. He even provided a pdf of recommendations and taught us a little of Portuguese
