Visa-free countries for Nigerian families that want a premium experience

For many Nigerian families, the thought of international travel often comes with a familiar sigh: visa applications. Gathering everyone’s passports, bank statements, and preparing for an interview with toddlers or teenagers can feel daunting. 

At Lery Hago, we normally take care of all visa applications and travel documentation so our clients don’t have to lift a finger. But we also understand that some families prefer destinations where they can just pack their bags and go.

If that sounds like you, here’s a list of visa-free family vacation spots for Nigerians that are comfortable, adventurous, and premium.

Top 5 visa-free countries for Nigerian families who want fun and comfort

Mauritius

Mauritius is a true gem for families. Nigerians enjoy visa-free entry for up to 90 days, so your arrival will be stress-free.

The island is renowned for its 5-star beach resorts with white-sand beaches and turquoise waters. Many are designed with families in mind. So, you’ll find dedicated kids’ clubs, calm waters perfect for little swimmers, and activities for all ages. It’s ideal for both August and December school breaks, when you want something special for the whole family.

We’ll talk more about why Mauritius is our top recommendation (and how we’ve planned the perfect trip below).

Seychelles

Seychelles is a multi-island beauty that’s full of charm, luxury family resorts and nature trails that are perfect for outdoor-loving families. And it’s visa-free.

Barbados

Nigerians can visit this vibrant Caribbean paradise visa-free for up to 6 months. Barbados has a rich cultural history and endless beach fun that’s perfect for families with young children.

Fiji

This Pacific island is also visa-free. While it’s a long-haul flight, Fiji is absolutely worth it for families looking for something truly different. Many family resorts have nannies, fantastic kids’ clubs, and activities to keep everyone entertained.

The Gambia

The Gambia is a fantastic visa-free option, especially for a quick escape. This West African beachside gem is just a short flight away. It has beautiful beaches, cultural experiences, and eco-luxury lodges you’d love.
