Awesome pictues. Its nice to see that Ogun state (My home state) is doing things to attract tourist.

Seun,
I intend to visit the Olumo rock sometime soon Could you help with information on fees and directions on how to get there from Lagos. Are there tour packages?

My fiance is due back in few days and he went to olumo while in Nigeria, i will definitely ask him how much it cost to get in there.

Will keep you posted

olumo rock is a sight to see, when ever you have the chance to visit ogun state in the wetsern part of lagos,i have been there once, and the view is awasom, and absolutly out of this world.
wow

Anyways for more info on olumo rock check out www.olumorock.com

9ja needs to develop Tourism oh.We gat some hot tourist sites

I climbed Olumo Rock on my first visit to Nigeria, which lasted for 4 months.  I got 3/4 of the way, and looked down, and realized where I was.  The last part of the climb had nothing for you to hold on to.  I thought 3/4 of the way was pretty good. Climbing that rock any further, you are putting your life in danger.

Hero,

My patience with Nigeria is zero.  Naijas have know sense of history and perserving history.  It is just incredible.  Do you know the Ijebe Odi has one of the largest, ancient earthworks on the continent, and those idiots are destroying it.  I don't see it being perserved unless foreigners come in, control it , and operate it. 

It is like coming to Badagry, and these fools are praising the missionary and slave traders.  Now why would the African diaspora come pay their money to hear how wonderful their ancestors tormentors were.

I am baffled at the backwardness and cluelessness of the people.  I am like who in the hell is doing the pr and marketing.  If I had the financial backing, control, and resources, move the Naijas out of the way, I could really run that place and attract the AA crowd.

Naija could have really been a fascinating place to visit.   However, the ignoramouses that run that country have just run it into the ground.

Too harsh.But u didnt fall when u were climbing.

is Olumo rock illuminated at night?

Can you imagine if Aso rock was all illuminated at night, how glorious + money spinning for tourism that would be?

Just look at how Paris, London and New York illuminate their monuments. Can you imagine the Duomo in Florence NOT lit up at night? I can't imagine!

Anyways folks, light = magnificence = recognition and hightlighting of a monument.

Think Aso Rock is well lit.

thanks for taking me through excursion in the pleasure of my room

lol

Olumo rock looks pretty interesting. Hopefully I'll visit the place someday.

I've been to Idanre Hills when young, and it was a fascinating experience. We climbed and climbed till we got to the top of the mountains and saw the town far beneath us in the distance.

Some of those pictures look like caves though. I'm guessing Olumo rock has a lot of caves. At least that's what they'd be called by foreigners, I think.

mi dont know what to think . . .
welll. . nice rocks

What are the cost of the hotels a good hotel someone spend honeymoon or does the resort provide one?

Nice pix. . .unfortunately I have not had the pleasure being there

Wow, so my dad has been feeding me tripe about how the N50naira dowry he spent on my mum, was used by the whole town to tar there major carriage way Now that I know better, I would love to visit my mama's hometown someday.
