Mainly, there are two seasons in Nigeria, dry or winter and wet or summer. Jos town has the most pleasant climate in all of Nigeria. The rest of the country has hot weather. Northern parts of the country are hot and dry, whereas southern parts are hot and humid. So the best time to visit Nigeria is from October to January. Peak season lies between December and January, as most Nigerian festivals occur during this year.
Northern and southern parts also differ in the timing of the wet season. The rainy season occurs from April to September in the North, and in the South. There are fewer crowds in the offseason, and flights are cheaper than the peak season. However, if you want to visit Nigeria during peak season, we would recommend you to book flights few months in advance to secure the cheapest flight ticket to Nigeria from London.
