Frequently asked questions
Why an SUV helps in the rains?
The Prado's higher ground clearance copes better with flooded or waterlogged stretches than a saloon car, which matters on several Lagos routes during heavy rain.
What should you know about journey times?
Build extra time into your schedule during downpours, since traffic slows significantly and some routes may be temporarily impassable.
What should you know about chauffeur-driven trips in bad weather?
A chauffeur familiar with alternate routes can reroute around flooded areas more confidently than a self-drive renter unfamiliar with the city.
What should you know about booking around forecasts?
For weddings or events planned during the rainy season, confirm pickup timing with some buffer and discuss backup routes with the booking team in advance.
