Down in the south south, I think one fun thing is to sit by the fire and enjoy bole (smoked plaintain) with palm oil sauce. This is rarely witnessed by the tourists, yet it is an interesting offering

Fun is relative!Nigeria is so massive that fun presents different meanings to different person as well as place to place.If i understand your intrests it makes it a lot easy to make my suggestions.Are you a night crawler?Do you want to visit disco Tech?Do you want to hang out in a bar drinking pepper soup of different kinds,over a cold bottle of beer?Are u a fan of any of the major European football clubs who is intrested in watching live mates in sports bars all over the country?Do like water sports?Do u want to sail?Do you want to visit privte lodges in smaller island around Lagos?Do you want to visit a local bar and listen to a live band playing different types of music from Highlife to juju,blues to rock and rool?Do you want to hang out in the suya sport?Or do you want to go see Femi Kuti at the African Shrine?Do you want to visit an art galarry to see African art at its best?Do you want to go chassing?The list are endless!Too many things we do as locals.The secret?There are other things that take place in these places which still makes it a secret.Though i must say,they are ot harmful!

Some people are mixing the questions up,the qestion was,what are the fun things to do in Nigeria which tourist rarely experience.some people were talking about osun osobgo festivals and other festivals but quote me,as far as festivals are concerned,a lot of tourist travel far and wide to grace the occasion and they also eat our local food which makes these points ruled out.Then talking about thing tourist rarely experience, you can now think of participating in the preparation our local cuisines,not just eating them,preparing it with our local fire wood and all that and also taking a trip down to the farm and taking part in cultivation and harvesting. They should not just limit their stay in developed towns but should also spend time in the local villages and have some fun under the village tree with our oldies.This could be fun you know.

There are no things a visitor is restricted from doing while in Nigeria so long as you are not breaking the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. You are free to go to anywhere in the country with the exception of the oil-rich Niger Delta geo-political zone where the issue of kidnap of whites is still rife and rampamt even though some states from this region are doing a lot to put an end to this evil project of the youths of the area.

This is an open-ended enquiry and u need to be more specific. Nigeria is such a diverse country (more than 250 ethnic groups) that "fun" is so relative and unique to each group and environment.

Having fun also depends on the individuality and likes of the person
