Booking a Coaster for Lagos to Ghana

The route runs from your pickup point in Lagos onto the Lagos–Badagry Expressway to the Seme border, crosses Benin Republic via Cotonou to Hillacondji, continues through Togo via Lomé to the Aflao border, then onward into Accra. Three separate border crossings make this the longest route on our list, and most groups plan an overnight stop rather than attempting it in one continuous run.

Bookings on this route are mostly business travel, family visits, and cross-border trade connecting Lagos with Accra. All passengers need a valid international passport, and drivers are experienced with the paperwork expected at the Benin, Togo and Ghana borders.
