    The guide was really knowledgeable on Fela, his wives, lives, albums and general way of being. Both for fans and those who don't know anything about him, it's a great place to go to.
    For anyone, it can be exhausting going through floors and at least 2 hours of the tour, but it is definitely worth it since you get info that's hard to get anywhere else about Fela. If you get there while there is a tour already going on, you can wait on the terrace which is a really nice setup to just simply chill.
    They have souvenirs for sale- caps, T-shirts, mugs and cards ranging from 1,000-5,000 naira. The tour itself costs 1,000n.
    It's in a residential area, so if you're driving, you can park anywhere on the street.

    An awesome experience in the museum. We had the privilege of a tour around the building with detailed explanations of every poster, painting, pictures and sourrdings. It is the last place the legendary Fela lived before he died (his room remains intact) and couple of rooms have been refurbished as rooms for rent with he original music plaque on the walls of each roomepic check out some pictures below though I can't explain about each as I learnt via the tour

    Kalakuta is a where Fela lives, shrine is where he performs. Kalakuta is a country on it own, go see complete Fela. Enjoy the sweet Naija rice and stew, the peppered meat is fire too, cold drinks? Of course!

    The house and the burial place of the legendary and great singer Fela Anikulapo Kuti. It has been modernized to a beautiful museum and an entertainment center. It has a roof top where you can really relax and enjoy your time. Books, drinks and smoking 🚬 Fun all the way.

    I recently visited this Museum late on a Sunday afternoon.. Thinking it was closed I went to the bar on the roof of the building. A guide appeared and immediately opened the Museum and showed me and my friends around. He was excellent and the Museum a wonderful tribute to Fela and his endeavours for his country. I was moved by his story and thrilled to meet one of his sons. Very well set out and a must for a visit to Lagos. The sunset from the Bar on the roof later was breathtaking.

    Fela's residence kept in pristine condition. 20 years now. His base while alive. His burial site.

    This experience was definitely the highlight of my Lagos trip. Fela Kuti’s music is so unreal and the fact that we got a special guided tour in his house was so crazy. Trust me, I am still pinching myself. It would have been even better if they played background music of his tracks as the tour went on. Wishful thinking 😊

    Fela's home turned into a museum. Everything you need to learn about the legend. From his clothes to shoes to pictures to his piano. Small but interesting

    Very serene. Usually only the people you come with will populate the place 60% of the time. The other 40% they have events and shows and more people.
