Babatunde O.★★★★★ — I went to the widelife park. Very educative and entertaining. Although not many exciting wild animals. If you find your way there ask for Idris the tour guide.
E M★★★★★ — I feel like this is a must visit in Abeokuta! Beautiful building, very nice tour with a guide who was passionate about the knowledge she was sharing. The Environment outside is also welcoming and well taken care of. We bought a few professional pictures too to have some nice memories of our visit.
Adeyinka D.★★★★★ — This is a perfect combination of hospital and tourism in wildlife. You will love to be here.
Segun T.★★★★★ — I can't resist to give Green legacy Resort the five star. Baba Obasanjo tried for Tourism in Nigeria and Africa at large. On my first visit to Green Legacy Resort and OOPL. It was mind blowing.

eyinade O.★★★★★ — An excellent place to visit in Abeokuta. It demonstrates the rich culture of the Egbas including very important personalities in education, government, law, medical field and theatre arts. Portraits of the past ruling Obas are displayed with their ancient palaces.
Jesusson★★★★★ — It's a beautiful place!! Exudes History, Arts and Cultural Aura.
I and a Team of Artists are about to make it more awesome with stunning Visual Arts; would have to update this review again.
Adetuase P.★★★★★ — Visited only the boat ride station but I will definitely go back to explore the park. The environment is very serene and peaceful.
Olu S.★★★★★ — The OOPL is located within compound of the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library (OOPL). There are also event centers, hotel (Legacy Green Resort) and a gift shop within this compound. There is also a mini boat ride within the compound. One can opt to pay for package that combines the library tour, boat ride and the wildlife tour or one can decide to pay for each items. Some animals there when I went there were falcon, crocodile, lion, ostrich, monkeys, python, etc
Olu S.★★★★★ — The Professor Wole Soyinka Train Station is one of the train stations on the route from Lagos to Ibadan, and vice versa. It is the main train station that serves Abeokuta town, and it's situated at Laderin, Abeokuta. The station is beautiful and neat. Unfortunately, the road connecting is bad, and hence commuting between it and the town is not that pleasant. Hope this malady would be addressed soon
Omeje O.★★★★★ — The service at train station is also organised and swift. Kudos to the government.
The station can run a bus service to transport visitors to the city, that's just my suggestion.
Cynthia J.★★★★★ — What's a visit to Abeokuta without eating their local snack? 😊 From Kuto, you can get buses/cars to almost any location in the south west, there is even a direct bus to Ajah
ukwenya G.★★★★★ — Kuto Taxi Park Abeokuta is a central point at the town. It's very close to the government house and Abeokuta township stadium. At this park, there are many taxi cabs, bikes(okada) ferrying passengers to several destination in the town like Asero, Itoju, Sagamu- interchange, Laada, etc. There's an overhead bridge there.
You can buy food and drinks here as there are many make shifts restaurants here. POS service, local boutique, stationary shops are here.
Faruq A.★★★★★ — Not a park. Just a parcel of land with a canal passing through hence the name "ORI OMI" events are hosted there, people sell random items there during the day and at night its a place for light night life.
adegunle M.★★★★★ — Well decorated during festive seasons. A popular place for public events. Government should do more to make the place more attractive for visit and not only during festive periods
