Day 1 - Meet Shagamu: Its History and People

And we're off! Our three-day adventure kick starts with a tour at the Remo Heritage Museum. This cultural spot sheds light on the rich history and diverse culture of the Remo people. Once we've soaked in the history, we hop over to Awujale Palace. Now, ready for a thrill? We're heading to the lively Akarigbo Market, where vendors sell everything from hand-crafted souvenirs to local spices. The day wouldn't feel complete without sampling the delectable Nigerian cuisine, would it? We wrap up the day with a mouth-watering dinner at Obe Sauce Kitchen that serves up traditional dishes with a modern twist.

Day 2 - A Sneak Peek into Nigeria's Natural Beauty

Rise and shine! It's day two and a hearty Nigerian breakfast at our hotel fuels us for the journey ahead. First stop? Oluwo Water Falls. There's nothing quite as refreshing as the misty falls cascading down craggy rocks. After a picnic lunch by the falls, we then trek through the verdant Olumo Rock, a place of historical importance and stunning views. After the hike, you'll surely have worked up an appetite. Then it's back to town and a visit to Alasele Fish Farm, one of Nigeria's top fish restaurants.

Day 3 - Experiencing Shagamu like a Local

Our final day begins with a trip to a nearby farm to learn more about the art of palm wine production. Feeling adventurous? Let's try a sip or two! Next, we lose ourselves (not literally) in the pulsing heart of Shagamu, Ewusi market. Brace yourself, it's a riot of colors, sounds, and scents! Finally, we'll head to the local Aso-oke weaving center where skilled artisans create marvels from threads. And before we bid adieu to Nigeria, settle in for a final feast at Akintan Kitchen.
