Lagos city guide
The best things to do in Lagos
Lagos moves fast, lives loud and eats well. Whether you're a local looking for something new or a visitor trying to make the most of your time on the island, this is the guide — places to eat, spas to recover in, hotels worth a day pass and group activities worth doing.
Fine dining and restaurant experiences
Lagos has one of the most exciting restaurant scenes on the continent. SLoW on Victoria Island does seafood tasting menus that rival anything in London or Lagos. NOK by Alara blends modern African cuisine with a world-class setting. Shiro brings Pan-Asian to the island with Robata grills and a sake bar. If you're gifting a dinner, a RibbonsXP restaurant gift card lets you load a specific amount onto a named restaurant — so the recipient knows exactly where they're going.
Spa days and wellness
The best spas in Lagos are concentrated around Victoria Island, Lekki and Ikoyi. Amani Spa is the go-to for full pamper days. Body Temple Spa specialises in deep tissue and hot stone treatments. For something bridal or ritualised, Dermaspace runs couples sessions and signature rituals. A RibbonsXP spa gift card lets you load credit onto a specific spa — no voucher codes, no call needed.
Hotel day passes
You don't have to stay overnight to enjoy Lagos's best hotels. Eko Hotels on the island offers pool day passes, spa access and gym facilities. Radisson Blu Anchorage has one of the best views on the waterfront. A hotel day pass gift card is one of the most generous things you can give someone in Lagos — especially during the festive season.
Group activities and workshops
Lagos has a growing scene for private group experiences — pottery classes, paint and sip, cooking workshops, cocktail making and team challenges. These work brilliantly for birthdays, team outings and corporate away days. RibbonsXP coordinates group bookings across 20+ activity types in Lagos.
