    • Aaron F. ★★★★★ I had a wonderful time over there. I recommend it for anyone looking for a comfortable chilling spot in Jos
    • Promise G. ★★★★★ Good day guys. Jo's city park is a real cruise yard. All the fun and good vibes are there.the security is good. I will advice to get seats inside early because the vibes is more inside than outside and when you want to enter inside, there won't be space.the views and picture stands are mad!!! Things that happening there fro 6pm though and gets even better as the night draws near. The bad things are: 1. You can't go and take pictures if you don't take a seat and make orders 2. The speed at which the orders are met is very slow....like literally slow due to the multitude that are gathered. I literally had to wait for almost an hour to get beef suya and two hours to get grilled tilapia fish. They should increase their kitchen capacity 3. Sometimes it feels like it's only one Male waiter that's taking everyone's order and his colleagues are just focused on a single table. Kudos to him nonetheless. If you see him, please give him a good tip. 4. Some things are quite expensive or they are not worth their prices Note: you are searched as you enter ....please don't use abusive words or shout and look down on any waiter, they are trying to meet several people's orders. Please respect is reciprocal. Thank you

    • Valentina K. ★★★★ Why will I weighbill an item from Jos to Abuja from morning till evening and it hasn't reached... Cars can develop issues I know but the rudeness of this driver is something else. Plateau riders as a whole stresses me out any time I used them for logistics. The receiver of the weighbill is so furious 11am and 7.44 pm . Drivers name is Rotshak.
    • De' B. ★★★★ ​If you’re looking for a transit experience that captures the rugged, high-altitude spirit of Jos, Plateau Riders Motor Park is the definitive starting point for your journey. This isn't just a patch of asphalt; it is a bustling gateway where the cool, crisp Plateau air meets the rhythmic hum of interstate travel. Renowned for its organized logistics and a reputation for safety that stands tall in the region, the park serves as a reliable lifeline connecting the North Central highlands to the rest of Nigeria. From the moment you arrive, the atmosphere is electric—a vibrant mix of focused drivers, savvy travelers, and local vendors hawking warm snacks that are perfect for the chilly mornings.

    • Cynnie C. ★★★★★ The visit was a beautiful experience, but the park's infrastructure showed signs of wear, with dilapidated buildings and security that could be improved. Fortunately, a World Bank-funded rehabilitation project is underway, which I hope will not only enhance the facilities but also lead to an increase in animal numbers and better care for them upon completion.
    • Michael E. ★★★★★ It's an old park and not perfectly maintained for commerce, and international tourism. But it serves as an alternative lifestyle to local and international tourists like me who have come all the way to Jos to document history. It is expected that as a national park, it should be better maintained and positioned for international tourism. I sponsored 5 other persons to this tour.

It is a wonderful landmark strategically located on Domkat Bali Road, Tudun Wada - ITF - Lowcost Road. It was commissioned in 2001, 20yeqrs ago by President Olusegun Obasanjo. Alot of Nolly and Kanywood videos are shot here. Very good location for video production
