The Experience
A 5-day Lagos immersion — curated, connected, and completely stress-free
The Ilé Itinerary Experience is designed for travellers who already have accommodation but still want to be part of the Ilé story — the same curated energy, insider access, and intentional community that define our full trip.
You’ll join us across five unforgettable days that blend culture, connection, and celebration — from welcome drinks and our signature Homecoming Brunch to cultural trails, curated nightlife, a Naija food/drink masterclass and a boat day at one of Lagos’ most-loved beaches.
Each day begins at our Victoria Island base, where your driver and Ilé host will meet you before heading into the day’s adventures. You’ll move through the city with ease, no planning, no guesswork, just Lagos in full colour, handled for you.
Expect the same attention to detail, warmth, and ease that Ilé is known for — just with the flexibility to rest your head wherever you call home in Lagos.
December 16–21 kicks off the festive wave — high energy, full of movement, celebration, and cultural richness.
December 28–January 2 brings the grand finale — a curated close to your year, with unforgettable nights and a Lagos New Year’s Eve done the Ilé way.

Frequently asked questions
Our Promise
Curated Lagos
We don’t follow the crowd. Every detail of Detty December with Ilé is handpicked — from where we go to how we move — to give you a version of Lagos most never get to experience.
These are curated, culture-rich moments designed for joy, depth, and connection. You won’t find them in your guidebook — but you’ll carry them with you, long after the week ends.
Built for the Visionary in You
Ilé creates space for big ideas. Whether you're seeking clarity, creative renewal, or entrepreneurial inspiration, this trip includes intentional moments to reflect, connect, and recharge—with people who get it.
A Soft Landing with Substance
Yes, it’s luxe. But it’s also layered. Boutique stays, private drivers, and concierge service make space for joy, rest, and ease. But beyond that? This is a trip designed to ground you—in your roots, your rhythm, and your reason.
Giving Back is Built In
With every Ilé trip, we reinvest into education and opportunity. A portion of profits supports Path to Possibilities, a UK-Nigerian charity changing lives through education. Your experience is part of a much bigger story.
